Re: Login credentials expired, cant login through Playstation on the EA website

Hello @a281695db3b9a6b2 

Based on the error you are receiving, it seems like your PlayStation is linked to a different EA account. In order to resolve the issue, you usually need to try and locate the correct EA account that is linked to your PlayStation and reset the password on it. If you are having difficulties with resetting the password or locating the correct EA account, please try and contact customer support.

    Hello @unopiece 

    Can you please check "Connections" tab in Account settings to see if your PlayStation is linked to the EA account that you are resetting the password on?

  • I’m also not able to play the game. It says I need to update password but I’ve updated and still can’t play.

    Hello @sunshine2127 

    Please let me know, can you see your PlayStation in the "Connection" tab in the account settings?

    Hello @badplayer09 

    Usually, just accessing the game from PlayStation console would ask you to log in to your EA account to play the game. Can you please let me know, are you getting any errors when trying to play Apex Legends through your PlayStation 5?

  • Hello. I have a xbox and don’t think I’ve ever played apex on PlayStation. On the connection page everything is clear.

    If you are not seeing a linked PlayStation in the "Connection" tab, but you are still getting a reset password message, that means that your PlayStation is linked to a different EA account. PlayStation's account could have been linked to another EA account if you ever played any of the EA games on that PlayStation account. If you are having difficulties locating the correct EA account, please try and contact customer support.

    So I currently had to Create a new EA account just to get on because my old one was saying “it’s been a while since we’ve seen you, so your login credentials have expired. The good news: all you need to do is reset your password.” It doesn’t let me rest at all. I been playing apex for years and now I can’t play at all. Keeps says it’s sending me an email to reset my password but no emails are being sent whatsoever I been trying for 4 hours already

    Hello EA_Montimer 

    I have my playstation account linked on an email and It's been a long time since I've accessed EA games and naturally the account has been disabled and I would like to connect it to this account. Is there any way I can recover? And is there any way I can directly get into contact with support?
