"We found one or more linked accounts

Hi,

I'm trying to sign into my EA Account on the EA Desktop, but I keep getting the following message:

We found one or more linked accounts
The EA Account is already linked to the following Xbox account(s):

• (MyXboxID)

You can switch your Xbox account or continue with a different EA Account. For more info, visit help.ea.com.

I'm using the credentials I'm using to sign in here, and it shows in my linked account...but I show two Xbox accounts linked, my genuine gamertag, and one I had about 13 years ago as a test...somehow it's also linked, and it seems to be blocking my ability to sign into EA Desktop.  I've gone through the steps listed in EA's documentation to unlink accounts, but there is no "unlink" button on my browser under the Connected Accounts tab, tried on a couple of different browsers...has the process to unlink changed?  I just want to be rid of the old account so only my actual gamertag is linked.  Anyone else having this issue?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    It’s ridiculous. The time went to 14 minuets left and then the start chat button finally popped up in red. I clicked on it thinking I was going to get an advisor…it just brought me right back to making a claim. At this point I’m close to calling the BBB and canceling my Xbox live account. EA HELP we are posting on your chat and nothing is being resolved. This is abuse at this point. I’ve purchased a game and just want to play it. How is this legal? Please help us

  • I don't even understand how they supposedly contact us? There's no chat window, so do they call or email me?

    And they've got the audacity to send me a link to a survey without even having acknowledged a single one of my queries lol.

    WTF... I recently chatted with the support (I think it was human 😉)

    I deleted my old registered Mail-Adress, registered on steam (which was also registsted at EA I think).

    I had 2FA activated on EA-Account.

    I bought a new iPhone, was not able to recover the 2FA settings.

    I try to launch an EA game... it wants me to serve the 2FA code (I don't have any code, and no access to the old mail account - And I don't have any backup of my old 2FA App as mentioned). 

    I created a new account on EA. So now, the message is, that I'am always registered with a different account on steam. Access denied. WTF?!?!?!?!?

    Can anybody provide me any help? Support at EA could not.
