How do I unlink my xbox live account from my other origin account?

★★★ Newbie

So i just made an Origin account and was happy so i could use battlelog but when i was making my account and tried to link my xbox live account to Origin it had an error thing popping up saying this:

UNABLE TO LINK ACCOUNTS

Oops…that account has already been linked to a different Origin ID. To review your linked accounts, select Account and Privacy from theOrigin menu.

 

I dont remember linking it to another account. How do i fix this so i can link it to my other account? Please i really need help.

I had the same problem.  What you need is a persona migration or persona swap (they'll know what happened).

Mine was actually NOT EA's fault somehow like I originally thought.  

I was hating EA customer disservice for the last 6 hours while trying to get someone on the phone (all the chat people said the phone call option was availabe, but that option didn't come available til the next morning).
Very frustrated that I couldn't online in my new FIFA game because of a persona account mix up, I gave up and tried the next morning.

I talked with Imani this morning and she restored my faith in EA games. Very friendly, very professional, very pleasant to talk to, and she worked very hard to finally resolve my problem!

She had to be very frustrated with Microsoft's [Lack of?] account management system as I was, but she kept her cool.

Probably the most pleasant experience with a phone support I've ever had and I definitely did not expect that from EA... A company I've come to loathe (and avoid most of their titles). This might change my mind.

Thanks EA for hiring Imani.
