Can I still link my XBOX account to my EA account?

BanditNation · Oct 7, 2017

I've looked for months and have only found one conclusive way to link my account, but I still can't link it, it doesn't look like the option's there anymore. Is it still possible?

Linking Xbox profile to ea account?

Let me start over. I'm trying to link my Xbox live profile to my ea account on ea.com. My gamertag will not link to my account because I can't find the option to link it. The link above was to download the fight night demo and they could link together there
but the fight night servers are closed. I still can't figure it out!

Linking Xbox profile to ea account?

The option is still there. Its very tricky to do however. The way I did it several years ago, was on the EA Orgins program you can download on your computer. I am not sure if you can still do it on there or not. But you can contact EA customer support. They
will be able to link your Xbox live account with your EA account.

Thanks but that’s no help. When you sign into a child account in EA app there are no settings to adjust for that child. In my own EA account I can link my Xbox account as you suggest but that doesn’t help my children.

As a test I changed their Xbox account birthdays to 18 but they still get the same error.

Somehow my xbox is still linked to an old EA account I had deleted years ago, and EA support can neither unlink it nor restore the account. Definitely broken. It would be nice if xbox could somehow purge it from my account on this side. EA won't even try to help you with this.

And that is the crux of it. I can verify my xbox account that it's linked to by not the EA account, so I. Effect my Xbox account. Is held to random by EA.

I guess it sounds like my only answer is to close down my Xbox ultimate account?

Again, the EA account was not compromised. The Xbox account was. I am not allowed to link my EA account to the Xbox account because my Xbox account is linked to the hacker’s EA account.

I understand that Xbox can not change how EA links accounts (although frankly they should be able to) but EA is not allowing me to disconnect the hacker’s EA account because, in their eyes, I am editing someone else’s account, which is not allowed.

So my account is just stuck in limbo. I have no options unless I get someone high enough in EA’s customer service that they can override the fact that I’m editing someone else’s account, and based on my conversations so far I don’t think that’s likely. The closest thing I have to an option here is to cancel my Game Pass subscription which I also do not want to do.
