Cant remember Origin sign-in Password, can't access email to change password.

★★★ Newbie

So basically, I can't access my origin account that I use for UT, Madden etc. as I can't remember the password. When I tried to reset the password it said it has sent a password rest email to the email address linked to the account, but the problem is that I cannot access the email account, as it is not a verified email address I believe? I am wondering if someone can help me out, and if I could change the email address, to my current one?

 

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

 

 

 

Thanks

what was the reason for denial? i had issues with the purchases on the account and the d.o.b. For purchases, depending on what console you play, go to your marketplace on a browser, NOT your console. search back in your order history for when you know you had access and find something related to EA (was a NFS bundle for me), and mark down the ENTIRE name of whatever it is, as well as the order number, exact day month and year of the purchase, the last 4 digits of the card used, and the billing address. when it came to d.o.b., i told them what it should be, and told them that thats what it is on the linked console account. about 35 minutes later of verification emails being non-existent, I have full access to my account. hopefully this helps anyone else cuz ive seen this issue posted a lot
