Is It Possible to Change What EA Origin Account is Linked to My Xbox Live Account?

Syphorr · May 17, 2017

So made a new EA account because my previous one was not able to acces Battlefield Battlelog features, and partly because I was already maxed out and it would be nice to start fresh. I have the game (Battlefield 4) through EA Access on my Xbox Live account,
and I want to switch my EA account to my new one without having to make a new Xbox Live account. It that possible? Also, I got Battlefield Premium via EA Access as well, so is that connected to my Xbox account or is that connected to my EA account and would
hence be lost in the transition?

How do I find out which email address is linked to my EA Origin account?

Here is the problem I'm having.

-I play Mass Effect 3, which uses an EA Origin Account

-I want to access forums for Bioware, which uses that login

-I need to sign in to the Origin Account that is linked to my gamertag

-I requested a password reset to the account linked to my gamertag

-Turns out, that is not the same email I use to sign in to xbox live.

Here is what I need to find out.

-How do I determine what the email address is of the EA Origin account that is linked to my gamertag?

How can I find out what EA Origin account my Xbox Live Gamertag is linked to?

no accounts are linked, as I have attempted that... I even tried to change the email address on origin to match the xbox live account and vice versa... Only thing that got me was locked out of my email accounts for 12 hours... The main issue is with ea and
there broken origin software that doesn't know what email is being used where

Hey there Syphorr!

That's a question you'd want to ask
EA Support. We don't have any information on their processes or ability to link/unlink accounts. Any content acquired through EA Access should be linked to your EA Access account and not your Gamertag.

Good luck!

Hi there,

for the stealing of players, you will need to contact EA at their forums. Also I would advise to change the password of the EA account, that might be possible at the EA website as well

Like, my old EA- Account has the same Mail as my Live- ID to which my xbox live account is linked.

May THIS cause the problem? But I don't see here the problem just to link my xbox live account to my origin- account!

Check your EA Origin account first. The EA Origin account can only assign or link one Gamertag per Origin account. Maybe you set your age incorrectly on your Origin account? Please note that if ever you have linked your Gamertag on an existing account, you
need to unlink it for a new account to be able to link it. Gamertags can only be linked once.

Changing your Live account wont fix this since the problem is within the Origin accounts age. Try to check out forums.bioware.com for more help.
