Cannot Link Account

Due to an extremely out of data link between my EA account and an old PlayStation account that I no longer have, I can no longer play any EA games that require me to link my PlayStation account, including skate. Am I pretty much no longer an EA customer on PlayStation? 

I'm definitely not making a new PlayStation account just to link my account to my current EA account, if that's the only solution. Much easier to never buy anything from EA on PlayStation ever again than create a second PlayStation identity.
