I have an Xbox account now btw.
Hey @StrawhatSenpai10 and @Magicman_80
Account progress is stored on the EA account and not the platform accounts (e.g. Switch, Xbox, PSN, Steam)
Relinking your platform account to another EA account will not transfer it's progress due to what I just mentioned.
You could get your data back by linking the platform account back to the EA account it was originally unlinked from.
Oh, so would there be no way to get the data stored on that account to a new one?
My issue is that if I hadn't changed my account, my brother's account would have been merged into mine since we used the same email when we made our accounts.
Correct, it would not be possible to transfer a platform account to a different EA account without losing the game data.
Does this mean that if I try to link my account back to the other one, they will just merge?
Thats ridiculous!! I changed the email on my Xbox account to the same email I used when I had a ps4 so that once cross progression is on apex my two accounts can merge. I find is dumb that a multi million dollar company like EA can't make a system to where ppl can link and unlink accounts and still keep all their data.
