Account Overriden by new account

I lost access to my account one day, during startup a window popped up during the game launch and I didn't see what it said by I had clicked on something and when it got into the game it was a brand new account and not my old Hyperdrive account! I have been unable to recover or access it on my own, Please Help! Name is LionHeart with Ally code 897-119-256, please help me relink it to my email and not this new account on it. I lost hundreds of dollars of investment by losing my account. It's been over half a year and I would like to play again on it.

    Here's an AI generated answer that could be helpful
    When you launch your game on a new device, tap the Have an account? button at the top-left of the screen, and follow the on-screen instructions to log into your Google Play account. If you haven’t already linked your game to Google Play and you still have access to your old device, log in to the game there first to back it up: Tap the Settings cog at the top left of the Cantina home screen. Tap the Connect button. Tap Sign in to Google Play and follow the on-screen instructions. If you never linked your game to Google Play, and don’t have access to the device you played on, contact us and we’ll do our best to help you recover it.

    Hello there,

     

    I would suggest you to uninstall/reinstall the game app and try out the suggested steps by referring the below link to get back to the progress if the account was previously linked:

    Hello, I hope you are doing well. I would like to inform you that overwritten account can't recovered. If it had been possible on my part, I would have done it for you. I hope you understand my limitation here. If there was a possible way to follow through on your request, I wouldn't have thought twice about it. 

     

    Thank you for contacting EA.

    Allow me to share that one SWGOH account can only be linked with the one platform account. It might be possible that you have more than one Google account. You are trying to link with the different Google account. Please use the correct Google account to login unless you are moving to cross platform device.

     

    Thanks again for contacting EA help. Please feel free to contact us in the future if you need our assistance and we will be happy to assist you.

    I know I am using the correct account, why am I constantly being suggested I don't know what I am doing and using the wrong account? I want to get past the suggestion that I try to sign in with the correct Google play account because I am... the account I have linked to that email got overridden by a brand new account. How can you all help me get that fixed?

    Why i am in a perpetual loop and EA help not helping and telling me "I'm doing it wrong"...... I need real help with this now. It's not okay that I spend hundreds of dollars on your product on this account and this is the help I get??!?!? And I get no response or response on the forums here either? I have 3 other accounts I spend on as well, have spent thousands of dollars and this is what I get? I really am losing my confidence to keep spending knowing that any of my accounts could have this issue and I loose everything and get no help in recovery of what I paid for... Seriously WTF???
