Re: my account has been disabled on need for speed payback but i don’t know how to g

Hi, if a standard password reset doesn't work, usually there's an account mixup, and folks are resetting the password on an EA account other than the one linked to the console account. 

What you can do is go to help.ea.com and log in with the console-specific login option.


This will let you get onto the EA account which is linked to your console account. From here you can try a reset again, or contact support.

    I’m using the PSN method to try to access my old account but it’s still telling me that my credentials have expired. However I am unable to update them since I lost access to the Email that I set up the EA account with due to inactivity.
