Ok, the first thread I posted was wrong and went into general discussion by accident, hopefully this will end up in the right forum.
This only currently works on the 360. Some people are reporting that if you live in a region where you can buy the DLC, then this method doesn't work. I don't know if this is fact, because I can't test it out yet. Eitherway, this definitely works if you live in the US or Canada.
" The 4 universal codes are as follows.
CBEEAAA41NWH
CBEEAAAE4L9N
CBEEAAAFQG9J
CBEEAAAE98ZV
Now, You can use the codes for BC2
You will need to make 4 different Dr.Pepper accounts.
Try using Internet Explorer as trouble has been reported with Firefox and Chrome.
1. Create a new Dr.Pepper account
2. Enter the Universal Code
3. Right click the claim now button and click copy link
4. Put link into your address bar
5. Change the =4 at the end of the bar to =3. (if it's already a =3 change to =4)
6. Hit enter
7. Claim whatever prize you want
8. Repeat 1-7 until desired amount of prizes.

Credit to Thelorn at x360a for compiling the method.
Note: I live in the UK and have tested this up till the point where I actually use them ingame (Can't play BC2 right now), they have been added to my EA Account as DLC I own though.
Battlefield: Bad Company 2
Game » consists of 26 releases. Released Mar 02, 2010
Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is the second installment in this spin-off Battlefield series. It has a more serious campaign and a vastly expanded multiplayer system.
How to get the Dr Pepper stuff for free.
Whoa, is this only for the Xbox 360? I just claimed a prize for BC2 and under the platform line only Xbox 360 is listed.
From UK, Doesn't look like it has worked for me. Maybe I am doing something wrong, but it still says I need to buy the stuff.
It keeps telling me I've won a Mass Effect 2 prize instead of letting me choose one. Also I'm totally unclear on which button to copy the location from. There are more than three in different locations, and most are flash embedded instead of linked.
You should better describe the button or take a screenshot instead of making us guess.
" I'm in the U.S., on IE...and there is no claim now button. "Does it even show BFBC2 stuff? Or just Mass effect 2? Cause that is what mine does.
And is the PS3 stuff up yet?
" Alright, I was only able to claim one thing as the other codes starting saying that I've already used a non-unique code. Guess I need to make more e-mail accounts but use the same EA Account? "Yes. I got all the Mass effect 2 stuff.
How come the site "remembers" your EA account even though you logout and create more fake Drpepper accounts? Is it tied to my IP address?
I don't believe this system works anymore. It's a shame, but at the same time: the camo can actually make you more obvious. Gotta love snipers in bright green ghillies sneaking around Port Valdez.. Thank you for posting it, but from what I see, it no longer works. Maybe it's because I'm from the UK, but I don't see any 'Claim Now' button. Congratulations to those of you who actually were successful though!

" @xMP44x said:Wait, really? I can't get it to work for me. I don't see a redeem button that can be right clicked, and when I enter a code I get one of two errors:" I don't believe this system works anymore.

- Your profile is not complete. Once I complete my profile I'm told my email address is in use and it makes me continue in an endless loop
- This code has already been used. Exactly what it suggests...
Am I doing something wrong? :c
Probably. OP lives in the UK and it worked for him. Read the original post again, all the info is there. Don't forget to use Internet Explorer.
" @xMP44x Probably. OP lives in the UK and it worked for him. Read the original post again, all the info is there. Don't forget to use Internet Explorer. "I feel like such an idiot. I shall give it a go with Internet Explorer and see if it works. But first I need to download Flash Player for IE. Yeah, the only reason I opened Internet Explorer when I installed Windows 7 was to go to Firefox's website.
These are all redeeming as Mass Effect 2 codes. It's annoying me, because once I claimed the two only prizes, there's nothing else to use the codes on.
EDIT: Nevermind, I'm just dumb and forgot to switch the numbers in the link.
Now Dr. Pepper thinks I'm Richard Donner from SnakeSnakeSnake, Kansas as well as Reality Francisco from OhMyCar, Tennessee.
FYI I can confirm this works. I just did it all quite easily. I should also note I was using IE to do the stuff on the Dr. Pepper website. If you don't have the email accounts or the time to create email accounts, just use this:

"You dont even need to have a valid email address, if you're brave enough just put some random, indecipherable email like "98oiuiou9fijqwoeif29ifjiiieie@butts.com" it will take anything. You're only going to use it once
