most issues with validation stems from using an email address that has been used previously either with another EA/origin account or swtor account
simple answer is create a brand new email address and try to validate , once validated switch back, this is sorta detailed in this link
@proxos666 Thank you for the speedy response! Unfortunately I’ve already tried with two new and un-EA-registered email addresses and no dice. I suppose the question is why does this glitch still exist after repeated reportings and complaints going all the way back to 2011 when it’s 2019? Seems mightily lazy on the part of the company is all. Especially when it’s really only people that are relatively dedicated to the game that are going to experience the issue. But given what BioWare did with the mass effect andromeda debacle, maybe I shouldn’t be surprised at their inability to handle technical issues? (I know I know I’m sorry, I couldn’t help being at least a smidge petty)
