Cant subscribe or redeem codes

SWTOR wont let me subscribe or even redeem codes. All I get is the error message:

"There is an issue with your Electronic Arts account which will prevent SWTOR purchases until resolved. Please contact customer support (https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/star-wars/star-wars-the-old-republic/swtor-support) for further assistance."

I've tried changing my EA password, but still get the error message.

My swtor account is TheFriendlyGhost if that helps

    Your account has been sent to studio for fixing, they should email when it is fixed

    to subscribe for now as a workaround, if you install the game via steam and login and play on a character to be sure the accounts are linked , you can then subscribe via steam whilst this gets sorted

  • Can you help me with my account?? I'm unable to purchase a subscription/coins with either my Paypal or card payments it keeps failing!

    Thanks!!

  • I have had exactly the same issue as this, i phoned support and they were able to redeem the item i wanted to, this was July 3rd, i was told that this was a known issue and a fix was being worked on.  I clicked the redeem button today and the same error appeared, i would like to subscribe again after a long period of not playing but need this error fixed before i do so, is there a fix coming anytime soon?

  • Im having the same issue, uve reset both passwords, EA and SWTOR and i still cant purchase anything. Account name is unknownziach.

    @TTV-TheKKoala 

    You need to reset the password on the linked EA account that account has the persona 7wow7luck7898 (not TTV-TheKKoala your posting with) that EA account uses a gmail email but not same as swtor

    use the following link to reset the password https://signin.ea.com/p/web2/resetPassword  then login on that EA account to fix the swtor account for purchasing

    for future purchases, use incognito mode on chrome initially if you purchase on swtor.com to be sure browser cache and cookies is cleared
