Re: Difference between deactivating and deleting your account
Hi @CharlieDaisy12,
Apologies, after merging your questions I got pulled away. The joys of being a Community Manager. 🙂 In regards to your questions, the short answer is this; any EA games linked to your EA account will be impacted by an EA account deactivation.
If you deactivate your account, the connected EA games will be impacted (unplayable online) for as long as it remains deactivated. This includes EA games on connected accounts like a linked Xbox account or a PlayStation account. If/when you choose to active the account down the line, the lock on the EA games from that EA account will be lifted too and be playable online again once more.
For account specifics, I'd suggest speaking with our support team directly as they will be the experts on account related issues. They can be reached through the following channels:
- EA Advisor - Phone/Chat/Email - Availability may vary
- Twitter - Select the message icon to get assistance
- Facebook - You can select the 'send message' option on the accounts home page
Thanks,
