Re: EA credentials are expired and need to be updated

That’s the point of asking this question it won’t allow us to link our account to EA it will always say credentials expire reset password.such we already did multiple time with a day or two in between changes and the same still comes up expired credentials.

I've been going through this all day, and here's what I've learned; If you can't log in using the original email that you set the account up with many, many years ago, you can answer a list of questions. Date of birth, billing address, last four of credit card on account, and two ea titles you've bought (using the locked xbox account) with their dates of purchase. I wasn't able to pass the test after several tries, probably because I used a bogus birthday just to rush through the set up. 

I was told by EA that I would have to change my gamertag, but I don't know if they mean literally just changing the name or opening a new Microsoft account.  I think I may have to choose between not playing any ea games, or switching my xbox account and losing every other game I have owned in the last 20 years.

Oh, I forgot to mention, I also contacted my old work and activated an old email address I haven't used since 2013. It says it's connected to an account, but so far I'm not getting any replies when I enter it. 

I have the exact same problem and the live reps are bad. I can get on my account, see all of my details and purchase history, and can tell them all of my xbox details but some how it isn't enough. They're sending me around in circles. At this point I've given up on EA games and will just play other stuff

I'm having the same issue. I have an EA account from YEARS ago, maybe when I played Skate 2 on xbox 360. That account has always just transferred over as I got new EA games. Even after changing my gamertag and my email for my microsoft account. I was playing EA games just fine and then all of a sudden it told me my EA credentials have expired and I need to reset my password. I ended up making a new EA account by mistake and now I just want to link my xbox account and the new EA account since that's the only account I have access to. I've communicated with EA live chat support and they were absolutely no help. I'm at a loss and don't know what to do. I have so many EA games I paid for that I'd like to be able to play that I just can't. It's incredibly frustrating. 

Yeah it is so annoying I have not played for weeks we'll actually I have not played at all

Same

I've just encountered this problem and it's pretty frustrating.

Wow what an absolute help your answer is. Tell me are u always this worthless ea?

its so sad that you guys cant fix this problem i keep trying to log into ufc 4 to play with my buddy and it keeps saying your account has expired and everytime i try to reset the account it goes right back to saying its expired i want EA to understand if they dont resolve this problem im not getting another EA game ever again you guys are just a waste of money and a waste of time you guys dont help us you make things worse

I'm having the same problem. I tried the other methods in here that worked for other people but it isn't working for me. I can keep my long time Xbox profile but no be able to play EA games online, or I have to make a new Xbox profile to play EA games online. Really awful service from EA. 

Same kind of thing happened with Playstation said I would loose everything if I changed the name. I took the chance and everything still remained on my account!
