I use a VISA Card and get all my codes in 10 min or less.
Seems like the more things you try to order at once the more trouble you have.
I have never waited more then 5-10 for any code from EA.....not sure why I am so lucky
But then I never have a the nightmares others have with account management either
but I have always kept my email address associated with the game and my accounts upto date.
If they cant email you the code because your email address is out of date and they have to go search for another email address.....that could take a few days for them to bother with it

Had to re-sub one of my accounts just last week due to CC expiration and I got my code within 5-10 minutes of purchase. Despite a lot of the moaning about account management, I was able to update everything and get re-subbed on first try.
On the other hand, my sister had same happen to her about two or three weeks ago, (sub ran out, CC on file had expired) and it took her 48 hours to get a code. She also had to reset her password (simply forgot it) before making the purchase, so not sure if that was a factor in the extended time.

I started buying them when I stopped being 100% sure I was going to renew my subs every time.
Used to be instant the last two times took 2 days for 1 and 3 days for the second. Just bought 2 transfers about a hour ago and have the Order Pending blah blah 24-48 hours for delivery email. About ready to go back to using the broker site that sells the xfrs $5 less than the UO store and does not make you order them 1 at a time!
No, I've never used a game code, just have accounts on auto renew under Subscriptions - but then I don't juggle houses
And delivers them to you now...not later
Hasn't happened once in 16 years, I'll play the odds.
It's why I use to prepaid throwaway, and only load it as is needed....
Well this last order took 23 hours to complete. Did an experiment sort of used two account log in and two credit cards and ordered one xfr token on each with in 5 minutes of each other. One arrived at 21 hours and the second arrived at 23 hours. My son ordered one at the same time using one of my credit cards that I used to order one of mine and got his token instantly on the screen after the confirmation screen. Makes no sense to me 
It's been order pending for me as well for months. I did the chat to see what was going on and they said it was a new fraud feature that went into effect. I assumed it was meant for everyone so glad to know I'm one of the minorities.
Icing on the cake is it's tripping the double charge on my credit card since I have to order 1 at a time.
8 hours and still waiting for mine. It say max 24 hours waiting now. used to be 72 , and I waited almost 72 once. 24 -ish more often. Im on Europa if that matterrs? Many ppl here have to wait long.
I use a VISA CC that is issued from a US Calif bank in the US Origin Store and have always gotten my orders instantly and an E-Mail within less than 2 hours with the same info. Maybe it is the type of CC you are using.
Mastercard. From Europa. Exactly 24 hours now and still no code.
Here is the relevant part of the E-mails I have gotten last 3 times I ordered with a CC instead of paypal.. Anyone else remember when you had to call and actually talk to a CS rep to get a Time or Adv. character code

My codes so far were delivered within the 72 hours. No call needed. 26 hours now and still waiting.. I guess I should buy 6 more months now for next account..shouldnt be far away.
I was talking about before there was a UO store or online buying option, if you wanted a code you had to call the phone number, read off the credit card info, then they ran the card and read the code off to you. That has been a day or three ago back in time.
Aah ok, I didnt use the store before the account management started to refuse my cc that always worked before and still works for buying codes and everything else. Still waiting btw. 29 hours now..
My CC routinely denies EA/Origin. Or at least twice in the last 6 months. I usually go to account management and click the button with the exact same info and it always goes through the second time. Weird. It keeps me on my toes though making sure all my accounts are active. I usually find out when I can't log in. One of my accounts just holds a house and I seldom checked it. But I do now. Maybe this is their fix for people playing the 90 day game. One takes a big chance waiting till the last minute to resub lol
Took around 34 hours this time but I got the code now. Yay I needed that account!
Which store are you shopping in?
