Probably a stupid question

I bought BF4 and registered a new Origin account because I wanted to change my name. I registered this account with the same email address as my old one though. I'm now in the position that I can only log in with my old account and not the new one.

I know the new account exists because I can search for it on my older account. The worrying part is I recieved no confirmation from Origin about my new account. I've resest my log in details to see whether I'll get an email but nothing as of yet. 

Anyone else had this trouble?
