    Unable to link my Epic Games account to my X-Box Live - as it says another Epic Games...


    [table][tr][td]I would like to link my epic games account to my x-box account both of which use my e-mail address. I have followed the instructions on the epic games website, however fortnite does not give me the option to 'link account' when I open the game, it only gives me an error message telling me 'unable to sign into your account for x-box live. Please try again later.' We have uninstalled and reinstalled fortnite, and over a period of 5 days have been unable to resolve this. Furthermore Epic Games is telling me my x-box is linked to another epic games account, however we can not find any other account linked to our x box. In addition we currently can't find anywhere in our Microsoft account where it might show us which Epic Games accounts might have connected to our x-box, and how to disconnect any in order to connect our own.[/td][/tr][/table]

    :)

    Moving V-Bucks and Challenge Packs to another account

    Hi there,

    there is no option to move items etc from one Xbox Live Account to another, but since it's Fortnite related, there might be an alternate solution.

    I think the content for Fortnite is linked to the Fortnite account (Epic account) and that can be linked to a different Xbox Live Account.

    For example this link shows how to connect a Epic Account to a console account (via the website):

    https://epicgames.helpshift.com/a/epic-accounts/?s=epic-accounts&f=how-do-i-link-my-console-account-to-my-epic-games-account-using-the-web&p=all


    Keep in mind to not use the Xbox Live Accounts or Epic Accounts when on a console, since this could result in a new Epic Account being created.

    I do advise you to contact Epic Support first so they can confirm the steps to take to make this possible before trying something. The earlier mentioned link has a Contact options.

    Epic games says my xbox account is linked to another epic games acc

    Hello Isaac_009,

    Is it possible that at some point you downloaded and played Fortnite from your Xbox?

    If so, an account was created at that moment.

    Try to follow the steps described in this link to unlink that account from your Xbox acc : https://www.reddit.com/r/FortNiteBR/comments/86en3k/xbox_account_already_linked_to_epic_games_account/dw4ge1m/

    epic games account binding restrictions

    I need help to link my epic account to my xbox since by linking it it tells me that it is already linked to another xbox account and says that I use the original but I don't remember the email or the name of the account and contact epic and they say
    that
    are restrictions that the consoles put hope and can help me

    Response:

    Hi there,

    for an issue like this, I assume it's best to contact Epic support via

    https://www.epicgames.com/site/customer-service


    Since it sounds Epic Account related and not Xbox Live Account specifically
