    I changed my gamertag and now I can't log on to EA play or play any of the games


    The message I receive is:

    Linked Accounts Found

    Your accounts can’t be linked because the EA Account for *** Die E-Mail-Adresse wurde aus Datenschutzgründen entfernt. *** was previously linked to the Xbox account for BrawnierRain991. An EA Account can only be linked to one Xbox account in its lifetime.

    My question is, if I change my gamertag back to the stupid default one, will I go back to being able to use my EA play account. Seems like a massive oversight on Microsoft's part, since I didn't change my email info or my "account", I just changed it from the idiotic names they generate when you first sign up.

    Thank you!

    :)

    I have the same problem, but I managed to notice that I was signed into a weird account, log out and log in to my actual account, now I can't install/play any of the EA stuff, and without knowing the credentials I can't log back in, or unlink the accounts (to re-link to my actual account)

    log in to xbox.com with my info but comes up with wrong profile??

    I am listed on my xbox as one gamertag, but when I try to log in on the computer it comes up with a generic gamertag. I can't change anything, and if I try to change the generic tag to my tag on the xbox, it tells me that name is already taken. Also, the
    generic tag does not have any of the games that I play on it. I used to be able to log in with my old tag, but for some reason it has all changed.

    New gamertags

    that's unfortunate as that's now the only way i can play ea games online forevermore. I deleted my ea account months ago and that, according to them, is the only solution: new gamertag with new email address (even though a new gamertag will be associated
    with the old MS passport address which is the email i used on ea's log in). No BF3 for me then.

    I'm Samy an independent advisor and I'll be helping you :D

    How are you, mate?
    Try logging out of the EA Desktop app and at the login screen, scroll down a bit and click to log in with your Xbox account, and see if you can now install any EA games.
    I have tried it before, nothing change. They offer me to buy EA play
