Linked EA account to steam, lost all progress.

I'm posting this because the EA support system won't work and doesn't let me submit tickets.
As soon as I messed with linking my steam account to ea over 40hrs of BF6 progress reset to zero.
I'm also posting this so if anyone sees it DO NOT LINK YOU EA ACCOUNT as you will lose all your progress.

  • Any update on this? It just happened to me. I linked, lost all progress/ phantom edition items. I restarted the game and could see the DLC items, but my progress is all gone. 

    i ended up talking to an agent. He said “your progress isn’t erased. If you played via steam without logging into EA it created a silent EA account for you to use, so you need to find a way to get those EA credentials.” 

    What a joke.

    How did you get ahold of an agent?  I'm having the the same issue.  I wanted to try coding some stuff in the Battlefield Portal and thought I needed to link Steam to a specific account EA to get it working.  I reset old email passwords and got into 2 EA accounts one from 2014 and one from 2021, I linked it to the older one and lost all my progress the next time I logged in.  I have 93 hours played so far (way too much) and I will not be wasting anymore time if there isn't a fix for this.  I logged in without an EA account (at least I think) through steam initially.  I can't submit a ticket either.  On an unrelated note I had to spend hours updating my BIOS and making PC tweaks to even get this game to run and for this to happen after grinding multiple guns to lvl 40+ doesn't make me want to give EA a dime for the rest of my life.
