"Account is already linked to an EA accouint"
I recently downloaded APEX on steam due to the fact that the launcher on EA wasn't working properly.
I have 2 EAs account and 2 steams account, me and my brother each have one of those.
Unluckily we fu**ed up the login on EA while linking and we swapped our accounts on EA (to make it clear i had brother's account EA connected to my steam and viceversa)
Now it says "steam account is already linked with an ea account" after disconnecting both of the accounts.
Is there any chance to reconnect them with the correct owner? EA supports didn't work and says that i need to contact steam support for it.

As the linking is done on EA's end, you were told male cow excrement by a support worker not willing to do their job.
Steam Support can not assist you with external services.

The link is one way. Valve cannot do anything about, you must contact EAG, since EAG links the Steam account, not the other way around.

So i should basically keep poking EA service until they change this?

You can also inspect which accounts are linked to your account.

You can see your social media linked accounts here:

To play our games on other platforms, you need to link your platform accounts to your EA Account. This includes PlayStation Network IDs, Xbox Gamertags, Steam accounts, Epic Games accounts, and Amazon accounts.

Indeed, the service was shut down earlier this year.
