Linking account

Hi @Gartre1, 

Your stuff wasn't there because your game progress and data doesn't transfer over from one EA account to another when you unlink a connected account from one and link it to another. Here's what it shares in our EA Help article: "Unlink your platform accounts from your EA Account":

What are the risks? 

When you unlink a platform account from your EA Account, you can link it to another EA Account, but your in-game progress will not transfer over.

That means you’ll permanently lose access to all of the following:

• games and game progress
• DLC, expansions, and anything extra you have for your game
• memberships and subscriptions
• in-game purchases.

If you unlink your platform account and link it back to your original EA Account, you may be able to get access to your stuff if you still can access the account.

Saying that, I do not recommend unlinking it again just yet though as:

Once you unlink a platform account from your EA Account and link it to a new one, you cannot unlink it again for six months. Make sure unlinking is the best choice for you and that you understand the risks before you follow these steps.

So, according to that guide, you'll need to wait 6 months before you'll get the option to unlink from the current EA account and relink to the original one to try to restore the game progress.

In terms of the bugging out, that can happen if you unlink a platform from an EA account that you play Apex on. In the same EA Help article, it shares this:

Do you play Apex?

If you unlink a platform account that you use to play Apex Legends, you may have issues with Battle Pass leveling, item unlocks, and other errors.

Instead of unlinking and relinking a platform account you play Apex on, it may be better to start fresh on a new account.
