Lost access to origin account email

★★★ Newbie

When I first created my actual origin account I used a school email, not smart I know, but I no longer have access to that email.  I have since forgotten the password used and I can't access the email to reset my password.  Is there anyway to change the account email without logging in?

@blakeyost In that case you will need to contact EA support as was mentioned above: For support, please visit the EA Help website. For instructions on how to use the EA Help services, please refer to How to use EA Help.

@donknotts464 Hi,

 

You will need to contact an EA Game Advisor, they can help you in recovering the account.

You can contact EA Help via the EA Help website. Detailed instructions on how to use the EA Help service can be found here.

I can no longer access the email associated with my EA account and therefor need to change the email and password to my account. how can I reset my info without using the email because EA only relies on a one way system to reset which is the email so how am I supposed to fix my information if I cant even access my email?

I'm having the same exact issue. Although I have another account that I now use, I still can't add all off my sims 3 games and expansion packs to my current because the redemption code is consumed from my first account. Help?
