[Switch] PVZ BFN Lost All Progress After Game Crash

@trexcraft2000 All progress for the game is linked to the EA account the game is tied to and not the actual console or saved data. With the Switch, there will only be a handful of ways to try and retrieve it if the game was indeed linked to an EA account.

With this title, there isn't a way for support to add progress back I am afraid, so it comes down to first making sure they are on the correct EA account. Secondly, go through all the steps you can to resync it.

If you are on the correct account, there are a few things you can do. The following article runs through most of those steps for the Switch:
