    If i delete my epic games account with a different email then my Xbox accounts and i did...


    I am trying to delete my epic games account on the epic games store so that i may link my Xbox account with my Nintendo switch account and get my fortnite skins and stuff on switch. But it says if i delete it i will lose all my purchases and data, if
    i bought all of my skins and wraps and things on fortnite on the console will i still lose my purchases and game data. also the email associated with my epic store account is different from my Xbox account email and i have not been able verify the email on
    my epic account. Idk if the email part helps changes things but will i get to keep my stuff that i bought on Xbox. Hopefully you guys can clear this up for me

    :)

    Update Xbox account email...Epic account pointing to wrong Xbox email

    Thanks for responding Brad!!

    If I can swap the email on the desired Xbox account to the email of the undesired Xbox account then there is no need for Epic to change anything because the undesired email is currently associated with that Epic account... They don't seem to be capable
    or unwilling to update the database values.

    To be clear I have:

    Xbox account 1 with email 1 [desired account]

    Xbox account 2 with email 2

    Epic account with an undesired Xbox account associated with email 2 (Xbox account 2)

    I want to update Xbox account 1 to have email 2 and don't care what happens to Xbox account 2.

    Your instructions have update the email then delete the account but, there is little chance that could work because two different Xbox accounts will be pointing to the same email...Doubt if that is possible.

    Is it possible to delete the undesired Xbox account and then reassign the desired Xbox account's email to the undesired's email address?


    in my example:

    delete Xbox account 2 update Xbox account 1 with email 2

    Now Epic association with email 2 points to the desired Xbox account 1 updated to email 2...

    Thanks again!!

    Fortnite Login

    I'm currently in contact with an Epic Games employee, but I don't believe they quite understood the question properly. If I'm right, they think I accidentally deleted my Epic Games account; I did this on purpose because I wanted to log back into my other
    account that had all of my stuff. When I deleted the account I meant to, it wasn't an accident, but now Epic Games says that there is still an account that is linked to my Xbox Live, but when I try to log in via Xbox Live it prompts me with the message that
    essentially says the account is inactive.

    Hello,

    Yes all of your Purchases are tied to the Epic games account and you would lose everything. They have also disabled account merging
