server unavailable issues

On the odd occasion when launching FC26 on my ps5 i would get a issue connecting to ea servers or get the ea servers are unavailable message, the issue was never a internet connection due to many troubleshooting methods: Lan connection, wireless connection, flush DNS, flush ps5 cache, renew licenses etc, When trying to log into the companion app, aboslutely no problems at all ever. 

Since last nights maint/patch (15+hours ago) ive not been able to reconnect to the EA servers on my ps5, again i have tried every troubleshooting method and have seen  a few posts that other people have put up but usually tie to a certain game mode (youth league/clubs) but no solutions yet to fix this.

    Hey DyIanJCE​

    Since this got worse after maintenance and your Companion App still works, this doesn’t look like an internet or PS5 issue anymore. It’s very likely an EA server/account sync problem.

    Try unlinking and relinking your EA account:

    Go to the EA Account website and log in
    1. Open Connections
    2. Unlink your PlayStation account
    3. Wait 5–10 minutes
    4. Re-link your PlayStation account
    5. Restart your PS5 and try FC again

    This refreshes your EA login token and often fixes connection issues after updates/maintenance.
