linking epic games account but can't play any games

When I try to play any game, that I've got from epic games (Star wars bf2 for example) it brings up a little origin window saying "sign in to your EA Account to link with Epic Games" and when I put my email in it says I've already linked that email to my account, which I have and I played swbf2 last week, but when I put in my username instead, it says "We cannot complete this action at this time. If you need assistance, please reference help.ea.com or answers.ea.com" and I don't know what to do.

    Hey @HarryTheMedi can you try uninstalling Origin and then launch an EA game from Epic and follow the steps to link an account or log into one.

    I'm having the same issue.

    Uninstalling Origin, and let Epic launch and install Origin, doesn't solve my issue.

    Keeps saying that the accounts are already linked.
