Can’t Log In: Password Reset Fails and Credentials Marked Expired

don’t know how helpful this is but it turned out my main EA account was created w an email that ended up being deactivated due to inactivity. however, i don’t know how my playstation would’ve remembered my EA account details as I don’t usually recall playstation doing this. i have however played battlefront on this console so i guess it is possible that my ea account info was saved and now im getting this funky error because my account is made W/ an email that no longer exists (im now commenting on a separate account)
