Linking accounts
Everyone has a problem with the linking-unlinking accounts, it is made very poorly. Personally I don't like EA anymore all because of this, I mistakenly moved my account from an EA account to another...

Community ManagerHey AlexandraHal all the info that we have around unlinking accounts can be found in this help article
When you link accounts, it creates a lifetime link to protect you from malicious activity and help prevent performance issues in your games.
You can unlink your platform accounts from your EA Account if you want to link them to a different EA Account, as long as that EA Account has never had the same account type linked to it before in its lifetime.
That means if you unlink an Xbox gamertag from your EA Account, you can’t link a different Xbox gamertag to it in the future.
Once you unlink a platform account from your EA Account and link it to a new one, you can’t unlink it again for six months.

Exactly, this is made so poorly, why would it be like this, if you do it without knowing you remain with all progress lost, after playing for months...

It would be expected that before making any major account changes like this AlexandraHal that you review the help article.
Once it has been done it is not possible for us to speed up the wait time.
