    Hi 0rb1t_ttv​,

    Ok, I think I understand. You wanted to link your PlayStation account to your Steam account, but accidentally linked it to your EA account instead? And the message is telling you you can't unlink it for another 6 months from the EA account. 

    Let's revisit your initial question now that we know more about what you're experiencing:

    No, there is no way to speed up the 6-month timer. It needs to timeout, so it will be 6 months before you can remove that link.

    You may still be able to link your PSN account to your Steam account, depending on the connection options the games offer. 🤔What game is this for? Can you load it up and go to its Settings page to see the connection options? It can sometimes help to have a visual on things; if you could pop up a screenshot of what it details (and block out your personal info), that would be great.

    Sorry to hear that. Could you share a bit more? What happened that you feel the account linking got messed up?

    I'm not sure I understand what 'set date' means. Were you seeing a timer of some sort? Could you share an image? It might help to get a visual on things.
