Madden 17 on xbox one s (EA account issue)

Ok.  Seems that using the ea help 'contact me' function does not work for me. 

I have tried chat with me 'hold time under 5 minutes'...no one shows up and I quit after waiting for 45 minutes to an hour. 

I have tried call me now...no one calls me and after waiting an hour I don't expect they will be doing so.

I am on Windows 10 Professional, and I've tried on the following browsers (Microsoft Edge, Firefox, and Chrome), so I don't think it is something on my end.

My issue is this.  I recently bought an xbox one s with madden 17 (download code) included.  I input the code and downloaded the game (it plays).  When I goto login to EA it automatically put in my xbox live email address (which I no longer have access to BUT on the xbox live side I worked around this by adding a backup email so any emails sent from xbox live would send to BOTH my non-accessible email AND my current and active email) and it does not let me login.  I can't use forgot my password because it tries to send to my email address I no longer have access to, and it does not even have an option to change the email address so I can login using another email address.

My xbox live email address I cannot change but how do I make it so I can login to EA on my xbox one s to play madden 17's online features?  I don't mind having to make another EA account (for a usable email address) to set it up since I pretty much only use EA Origin to play Madden games.

Any help would be appreciated.

    That does not answer the question...how do you change the email address in the game-from the Madden 17 interface to allow you to use online features please don't just put some copy and paste answer in here.

    I'm having the same issue right now. When I start up Madden 17 it tells me to sign into an account. The problem is the email address that comes up is my dad which has never played a video game in his life or even know what EA games is. There is no way to change the username while on Xbox one playing the actual game. I've created an account for myself but now the actual game doesn't allow me to change the username it only shows my dads email address and I have no idea how they even got his email.

    I'm having the same issue showing a completely different email than what your *ty origin website shows. I have deleted the email on the computer with your link entered it 100 times. Still doesn't change *. Every time I log on to madden it shows the wrong email not the same one on the organ website which is my correct one.
