Hey @TrolleFar01,

If you've previously had a PSN account linked, then I'm afraid that you won't be able to link a new one to your EA account. As EA account can only have one of a specific platform account linked to it during its lifetime, so if you're looking to link a new PSN ID then I can only recommend that you create a new EA account to link it to.

We have a little more information near the bottom of this article:

@TrolleFar01,

If you need help finding out what's linked to what account you'll need to reach out to our live support team so they can take a look:

This isn't something we can help with on the forums, but they should be able to help you find your accounts. Standard smile

How is this a real thing? You're the ONLY service that has this issue. Makes me not want to purchase another EA game again.

Really weird, i logged in successfully on the ea account even if its so old i dont even remember using it.

anyway when i try to link my psn account it says its already linked to *******@disabled.ea.com?

 

obviously i dont own that email address, ridicilious logic to only allow one accou t to be linked, it says im registered since 2014.

Hey @pattyLtd,

It sounds like your account is linked to an old or disabled EA account. If you need a hand tracking that account down, I'd recommend reaching out to our live support team:

https://help.ea.com/en/help-home/?r=1

They should be able to help you either get back into that account, or get your PlayStation linked to another EA account so you can get back into your EA games.
