I just got a reply on the recovery form. They said they're unable to verify my account and they've locked it again. How are they unable to verify it? I literally gave them my debit card number, where I originally made the account, and my gamer tag. How is that not enough information?

Hi, Thank you for trying to help, but I am unable to to recover the account the ways you provided. I do have the email, but no information about it. The only thing I know is the password they used before changing it and locking me out of my account. Is there a way someone is able to change the email from the account to the email I am using on this account.

I have the same problem. The email on my xbox live account is years old, I have no access to it anymore, and I am unable to add a new email because "I still need to verify my email." That's pretty difficult considering I no longer have access to it. Great

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
