EA Technical Support Conversation 1+ Hours over one little fix...



I just needed to unlink my XBL profile from an EA account and then link it to my new one. The following conversation took up and hour of my life.

 Deepak: Hi, my name is Deepak. How may I help you?
shvesley : Yes
shvesley: Umm.
shvesley: I redeemed a cerberus network code online and now I can't link my account to my gamertag
 Deepak: May I have your gamertag please?
shvesley: Mr Shvesley
 Deepak: alright
 Deepak: May I have the account with which you want to link this gamertag?
shvesley: The Master EA ID is Shvesley
shvesley: or *********
 Deepak: alright
shvesley: thats the email I made it with
 Deepak: may I know the email address with which this gamertag is currently linked?
shvesley: *********
shvesley: Hehe I use it for everything :D
 Deepak: I am sorry this gamertag is not linked to *********
shvesley: ?
shvesley: It's not?
shvesley: one second
shvesley: let me try to sign in
 Deepak: ok
shvesley: I signed in to xbox.com with my email and it worked fine
shvesley: and the gamertag is Mr Shvesley
shvesley: hmm
shvesley: did I give you the wrong email?
 Deepak: I can only provide you the domain.
shvesley: ********* is my WIndows Live ID email sign in
shvesley: What does that mean?
 Deepak: that email address ends with @gmail.com
shvesley: is it &&&&&&&?
shvesley: I think I used to use that for my gamertag
shvesley: is that right?
 Deepak: Yes correct
shvesley: Ok
shvesley: but fyi that is technically the right email anymore becasue I changed it
shvesley: hmm
 Deepak: So you want to transfer it from %%% to *** correct
shvesley: Yes Please
shvesley: :)
 Deepak: Please provide me the date of birth linked with &&&&&&&
shvesley: october 13th 1969
shvesley: 10/13/1969
shvesley: that should be right ;)
shvesley: oh winky face
 Deepak: Sorry both are incorrect
shvesley: ?
shvesley: 10/13/1977
 Deepak: This is also incorrect
shvesley: wah?
shvesley: 10/13/1996
shvesley: is that right for &&&&&&&?
shvesley: Did i work?
shvesley: *it
shvesley: Ummm
 Deepak: I am sorry it is again incorrect
shvesley: HMM
shvesley: 7/7/1977?
 Deepak: Please take your time and try to recall the correct date of birth
 Deepak: and then provide it to me
shvesley: You are sure it is not 10/13/1969 or 10/13/1977 or 10/13/1996 or 7/7/1977
 Deepak: Yes, all these dates are incorrect
shvesley: 1/1/1977 or 1/1/1969?
shvesley: Wait I can check my account on xbox.com
 Deepak: alright
shvesley: October, 13, 1969
 Deepak: It is again incorrect
shvesley: doh
shvesley: one sec
shvesley: umm that is what it says
shvesley: When I logged in to my Windows Live ID
shvesley: via passport.com
shvesley: and clicked on the account button
shvesley: October 13th, 1969 is the birth date displayed.
shvesley: for the email
shvesley: &&&&&&&
 Deepak: But this date of birth is not registered with your account &&&&&&&
shvesley: But that is what it says?
shvesley: In the account info
shvesley: ahghg
shvesley: Am I correct in assuming the birth date you are looking for is the one associated with &&&&&&& which is associated with a Windows Live ID that used to be linked to the Gamertag Mr Shvesley?
 Deepak: Yes
shvesley: October 13, 1969
shvesley: I copied and pasted that are you POSITIVE it is not right?
shvesley\ Can you refresh the information or something?
shvesley: Because that is the birth date displayed
 Deepak: I would like to inform you that their is no way to check the date of birth registered with your EA account.
shvesley: oh
shvesley: that bday
shvesley: I don't think I put that in
shvesley: Wait
shvesley: Ahh
 Deepak: You just need to recall what you have put at the time of registering the account
shvesley: I don't even use the email &&&&&&& anymore for xboxlive I linked my gamertag to ********* so why do you need the old email?
shvesley: hmm
 Deepak: Your gamertag is still linked with *********
shvesley: Yes!
shvesley: it is!
shvesley: But you said it was not :(
 Deepak: Sorry your gamertag is still linked with %%%%%%%%%%%%
shvesley: That is confusing
shvesley: You just said it was the other email
 Deepak: No, that was typed by mistake
shvesley: oh ok
shvesley: Well there must be a problem with your information because when I log in to my gamertag I use *********
shvesley: Can you refresh your info or something?
 Deepak: Yes I have done it, the data base is giving the correct information.
shvesley: Is it possible the database is wrong? Because I logged in to my gamertag with ********* in the last 30 minutes
 Deepak: It is not possible
shvesley: My bioware social network is also registered with ********* 
shvesley: if that helps
shvesley: but I don't think it does...
shvesley: hmm
shvesley: This poses a problem
shvesley: Can you unlink Mr Shvesley from ALL existing EA accounts?
 Deepak: To do this also I need the date of birth
shvesley: I c
shvesley: October 13 1969 is the one listed 
shvesley: That is the birth date associated with my gamertag
 Deepak: But it is not registered under your EA account.
shvesley: Oh
shvesley: Well I will make it that
 Deepak: alright
shvesley: Can you help me change it?
shvesley: I dont see an add birthday button 
shvesley: I felt stupid saying that
shvesley: haha
 Deepak: I would like to inform you that their is no such option available to change or add the date of birth once you registeredit.
shvesley: I dont recall entering a birthday :(
shvesley: Well that blows
shvesley: Hmm
shvesley: Can I delete my account
shvesley: then re register it?
shvesley: with that birthday?
 Deepak: It is also not possible without verifying the account
shvesley: how do i verify?
 Deepak: And the only unique way to verify the account is providing the date of birth.
shvesley: Crud so I am kinda screwed
shvesley: October 13 1996 
shvesley: is my birthday
shvesley: is that  the one I used?
 Deepak: But you have registered any other date of birth other than 13th oct 1996
shvesley: It must have been a typo!!! NOOOOO
shvesley: Is there any other way I can confirm?
 Deepak I am sorry no other way
shvesley: How can I see what bday I registered on ea.com with?
 Deepak: I am sorry their is no way to check what bday you registered on ea.com with
shvesley: Why not?
 Deepak: Due to security reasons
shvesley: ?
shvesley: The person cannot see their own birthday
shvesley: Nevermind...
shvesley: Can I delete my account without the birthday stuff
 Deepak: I am sorry it is not possioble
shvesley: because I must have entered a typo 
shvesley: or something
shvesley: because that is the birthday I use
shvesley: Is it close to being right?
 Deepak: No
shvesley: Good golly
shvesley: I am so confused
shvesley: Is it the birthday I used when I made a battlefield heroes account?
shvesley: I made that before I made an ea account
 Deepak: I only need the date of birth linked with %%%%%%%%%%%%
shvesley: Ok.
shvesley: I am on a quest.
shvesley: To figure out this birthday.
 Deepak: Yes
shvesley: One moment please.
 Deepak: alright
shvesley: Wait.
shvesley: If I sign in to the &&&&&&& it will sign me out of this and I cant talk.
shvesley: One moment please.
 Deepak: ok
shvesley: ok
shvesley: So I logged into the &&&&&&&
shvesley: ea account
shvesley: and my gamertag was listed under the personas
shvesley: there can I remove it?
 Deepak: No, it is not possible
shvesley: Really?
shvesley: Noo
shvesley: Wait
shvesley: I can change the email associated with that account
shvesley: right
shvesley: ok
shvesley: bwaahaha
shvesley: I think this will work
 Deepak: Yes
shvesley: And then the account with my gamertag will be linked to *********
 Deepak: Visit this link
 Deepak: " http://support.ea.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/57/kw/change%20email%20address
 shvesley: I am on my way
shvesley: to victory!
 Deepak: Yes you are
shvesley: ok
shvesley: I have to change the email on this account first
shvesley: to make ********* available
 Deepak: Yes
shvesley: that wont mess up this chat right?
shvesley: Aghg I have to run between my basement and my second story room\
shvesley: out

shvesley: it is finished
shvesley: but umm
shvesley: not really sure what that accomplishes 
shvesley: hmm
shvesley: Is my BioWare social network linked to this account (the one i am talking to you with)?
shvesley: Because if so this was all for nothing unless that can be changed....
 Deepak: may I know have you ever tried to login to bioware account using *********?
shvesley: Yes I have
shvesley: that is the email associated with my bioware account that the cerberus network was activated on
 Deepak: alright
shvesley: I am trying to figure out how to connect my bioware account to my ea account
shvesley which is connected to my gamertag
shvesley: blah
shvesley: does that make sense?
 Deepak: So are trying to link your gamertag with ********* if I am right?
shvesley: Umm yes and no
shvesley: my windows live id is already *********
shvesley: but my bioware account is not connected to ea or my gamertag in anyway
