Re: Cant retrive account because of security key

I called CS who helped to remove the key so that I could set it up again, this time saving the activation code somewhere safer.
They did try to tell me to that I was wrong when I told them that I did not see this when I tried to log in.


I tried various browsers, but the "Lost Your Security Key?" link does not ever appear, as such the help page is not accurate.
Customer Support are quick to tell customers that they are wrong or that it is a problem at the customer end.
I am pretty sure that the website and the Customer Support systems are just woefully out of sync with each other, which results in contradictory information for customers.
Some of the links from http://help.ea.com/en/article/swtor-security-key-faqs/ just take you to pages that only contain links directly back to http://help.ea.com/en/article/swtor-security-key-faqs/  
The above image is from that page and does not accurately depict customer/user experience.

    I can say if i try to remove my security key , i do see the link as displayed to remove it, so for me it is correct.

    Why some accounts do not see this or why I am not sure, but as you found calling CS to remove is the way to go if that is the case.

    What i see is below
