EA Profile

DannyStokie · 20-11-2008, 02:59 PM

I just made a new PSn for my new PS3 because my other broke and registered with EA again, but i registered with the old EA account like it explained i could do. But now I have 2 accounts with the same email address and password according to EASW even though i i just logged in with the old one. So how do i login to the new one?

cheers

I'm not fully sure what you mean, but have you checked to see whether your new PSN appears in the persona list (profile > bio > edit bio) and is selectable to be the default persona for your EA account?

EDIT: cheers I tried what you said and it worked, thanks a lot.

OK. Firstly, when you got your new PS3 you should have been able to login with an existing PSN account without needing to make a new one - although that's kind of irrelevant now unless you want to simply change your PSN login details on your PS3 to your original PSN account.

If you check out the EA Football World sticky that I made it will tell you how you can set your default persona on EA Football World, try following the instructions and see if your new PSN persona is available in the persona drop-down list. If it is then set that as your default persona. If it isn't then I would suggest contacting EA Support.

Great. I done the same and registered a new EA account and now I can't link MY PSN ID because it's taken, just brilliant.

Have you previously linked the PSN ID to an EA account?

No worries, did setting the default persona work for you or did you have to contact support?

MrAfricanIsaac · 20-11-2008, 08:13 PM

It's okay now, I done it with another name and everything works.
Now I have linked another PSN ID to my Master account, and set that one as the default persona. However, it says Played 0, Won 0, Lost 0. Why has my match history not transferred over?

EAUK_Adroit · 20-11-2008, 08:18 PM

When setting the default persona, it will only show the stats related to the PSN ID/Gamertag that is set as a default persona. So if you created a brand new PSN ID and have not played with it yet then it will not have any stats for that account; stats are persona specific and cannot be transferred between accounts.

DannyStokie · 20-11-2008, 09:04 PM

Yep, It worked Adroit, cheers mate. Just changed Persona and now it logs in with the account I'm using.

thanks.
