Thanks for your post. It is very helpful since this whole thing is confusing. Here is part of my confusion: I should unlink the account first but unfortunately there is no way to unlink it. That is, there is nothing that is linked to the xbox account or any other account for that matter. In another separate epic account, I see that the xbox name is linked. However, as a nameless account, there is nothing to disconnect. There are only active "connect" buttons under all the apps, e.g., xbox, twitch. So, I am a little concerned on your first step of deleting the account without unlinking the account. When I look at the Epic website to "request account delete" to delete an account, it says this action will "Start the process of deleting your Epic Games account including all purchases, game progress, in-game content, and Unreal projects permanently. This action is irreversible and your account will be disabled once submitted." It is a big leap of faith to delete the account with that warning. I know you mentioned that "your save data/skins are connected to your psn/xbox/switch account - not your epic account" but given the Epic website, it says something different. One note is that there have been no charges my epic account yet. I wonder if that means I have the green light to delete the account. What do you think?
This didn't help, but when do any of these YT videos help. So when Epic games bought rocket league i had to sign into rocket league with a epic games account. I tried to but it refused to take my details. It then proceeded to give me a nameless account that i have 0 CONTROL OVER, so how do i unlink my rocket league account if i dont even have access to the nameless account they automatically linked for me.
I got an account off my friend when I unlink his account to try and link my Xbox account to it! It says I can't unlink the external account of the epic Games. Need help :(
Problems "un-linking" an account is a separate issue from the ones described in this video. I would highly suggest emailing EPIC with this question. Comment and let me know what they say and we might be able to solve this together.
Thanks just had to hit that playstation login button on the epic login site and after i logged in using my psn account then bam I was able to link my switch and use cross save
I am trying to link my nintendo account which is the nameless one to my xbox account which isn't, we delete the one that has my credentials right, which would be the Xbox account right?
you unlink every account that is connected to your epic games account (the one with your email and everything) then you delete the account then start up a new one and press the Nintendo switch icon
Will it say that when I put in new credentials and go to link my switch account it won't say that this account is already linked to another epic games account?
Hello i ran into a problem where when i tried to link my xbox account to my epic games account a message popped up saying "credential error in external login" if you have any idea on how to fix it please let me know
So it made a nameless account and I can’t delete it because I don’t know the email or password. And the nameless account has my Xbox accout linked to it
Ok someone help me, whenever I try to reconnect my switch account it just says that an external account is already linked, which I know, I’m trying to reconnect it but it won’t let me
Had to come back to this video and just say that when you delete your account they literally warn you that you will lose all game progress and all purchases. I definitely wouldn't trust this video. I've been going back and forth with Epic right now through emails trying to get them to not delete my account because it's still in "processing request".
Hi! There's a difference between your Epic account and your console account. Your data is stored on your console account - the one I tell you not to delete. Your save data/ skins are NOT stored on your EPIC account - this is the account I'm telling you (and Epic will tell you) needs to be deleted and recreated using the methods in this video. Hope this clears it up!
@@FastTipsGaming That's the part that confuses me. Because I don't purchase anything through Epic I buy everything through the Playstation store. So I wasn't sure where all the purchases I've made are stored.
@@stringsttv1310 I understand! I was confused too and just happened to have a youtube channel so I thought I'd make a video detailing what I did to solve the problem. If it helps, email Epic again and ask them where your save data is stored for your games. They'll tell you what I've said in this video, but I'd always advise people to do their own research and comment on what did and didn't work. Best of luck mate!
as far as i know, your old account HAS to be unlinked before you can link up your new account. definitely email epicgames and explain your situation to them
I linked the Epic Game account to several places a few months ago, and now when I enter the (CONNECTION) section, it did not say where your account is linked, which part should I go to and find out where my account is linked to? Pls help me
I have a problem what if ur epic name was anx cylix then you change your psn name then when I sign in to epic it said my old name is this the same account?🤔
I'd wait a couple of weeks to make the name change show up on everyones server and try again. Other than that, I'd call sony and see what can be done. I changed my name and didn't have any problems. Sorry you're having this problem mate =/
I do not understand you say 1:12 (Do not disconnect your nameless account from your console account now or in the future or you will lose all of your purchases and save data ) then you follow that up with 1:33 (number one unlink everything from your account that you yourself have created and delete your account)? Can you be more clear?
Savage-yarn if you have two epic accounts, unlink everything from one and delete it. Wait for your confirmation email that the account has been deleted. Then, link up everything to whatever account you want.
How do I delete it ? When I go to delete it , it gave me this email that they had gave me already and I have to get the security code when I don’t have that email .
hey, very useful video but I'm trying to connect my Nintendo switch account to my epic games account and it says there is an account already connected to it but I never made another account do I still do this method? if so if I delete my epic games account do I lose anything on my nintendo switch account
I have a different type of th problem. I have Epic games set up for PC long time ago with all purchases and now my son created a nameless account on the new Xbox (no purchases). I would like to have PC purchases on the Xbox but have no idea how to do it. I emailed Epic a few days ago and there is not any answer. There is not any clear info what to do in such a case. It seems lots of people have problems with nameless accounts. It is seems to be an epic feature of the Epic account.
So basically something used to legitimately destroy some accounts to force ppl to re-purchase... The scummy business practices of today... Worst part is that they don't realize this will make fewer ppl want to play, and kill their games.
I don't understand, which account should i delete? My Epic Games account? Like, MY account, or the Nameless account? I'm so confused Also, you made this whole process through a desktop computer or through your phone?
After unlinking everything and deleting your epic games account - wait for confirmation email - sign up for another account by clicking on your console logo instead of just creating a username and password.
Helllo I have a question what do i do to link my nintendo fortnite account to my ps4. Do you need to go to connect with ps4 or connect with nintendo if i wanna connect my nintendo fortnite account to ps4. Pls answer back. Thank you
i dont have a ps and i dont have xbox and my fortnite account wasn't and still is not linked with anything but epic games created a nameless account for me.. why???

I understanding how to do linking part my problem is, I have set up long ago an epic account for my switch so my oldest son could play fortnite (Because I didn't know you had to take the console off the mount to type a name to get the nameless account) so now he plays off the main (parent account). My youngest plays on the xbox but wants his progress on the switch, i get the error "epic account already exists under email and cannot be linked" is there a way to link (xbox-switch) to his nameless account without erasing my oldest? Or I am SOL here?
I signed in to epic account PlayStation using only part of my email and it was never verified by me so I cannot access my account info. Epic Games has not helped me
i need help. i got banned on my psn account and i disconnected it from my epic games account. i made a new psn and tried to link it to my epic games account because i only have skins on this epic account. so when i tried to log it in it said “recently linked to another psn”. HELPPP
i have deleted an account on switch and want to link it to a new account which is connect to my ps4 as primary is this possible. i keep getting a message saying sorry this nintendo account is already associated with another epic games account , yet i have received confirmation email from epic games saying it has been deleted ?
So I used to have an Xbox but recently bought a ps4. I unlinked my account from Xbox and tried to link it to ps4 but it says it has already been linked to a ps4 account. And that’s has never happened
It's because you have it linked to a "nameless account" that epic automatically sets up for you if you start playing Fortnite or Dauntless without logging in with your actual account. Follow the steps in the video and you'll be able to link them all up under one account.
create new email and sign in to epic games by clicking the psn/ps4 option. put your new email and then after you are in go to connections and unlink the ps4. after that you can go to your original epic games account and link there the psn
Wait hold up I'm confused you said DONT disconnect my nameless account from my Xbox or I'll loose everything but then after say unlink everything and delete so if I follow through these steps I'll loose my years worth of RL data?
ATTENTION!!! I had a problem of trying to link my epic account to my xbox and because i played dauntless with the "nameless" acc ive found the solution, sign out of epicgames go to sign in and sign in with your xbox acc then go and unlink the xbox acc from the newly made acc then go back to the acc you originally wanted and link it.
@@FastTipsGaming no your solution sounds like you want the nameless account rather than an already existing account since you told people to delete their already existing epic acc
Hi, just double checking to make sure I don't mess up. I made an Epic account that I want to keep and link my psn to it. After I create an account onto the nameless one with a new email do I then just delete?
haha headless... just make sure you unlink your psn account. delete your epic - NOT your psn. wait until confirmation email from epic that your account was deleted. create new epic by clicking psn icon.
i already deleted the account and signed out of my fortnite account but it says i cannot link it to another external account cua i already linked it to a differnet external account and i can only link it to the first extrenal account not a new one. do u know how to fix this
if your old xbox account was linked to your epic games account then unlinking it shouldn't be a problem. you'll lose your purchases made on your old xbox account but linking your new xbox account shouldn't be a problem.
Hey man, so recently I got banned on my psn account, so I created a new ps4 account, and I wanna link my epic games account to my new ps4 account, but what happens if I unlink the account that got banned, will I loose all my skins and vbucks? Pls respond man I’m so scared ☹️😭
Man everytime I try to link my new Nintendo switch account it always goes with the old switch account and doesn't let me choose what account I'm gonna link with
i just bought a account today with my fav account peely but i cant log into it because its already exist on switch and im afraid that if i delete the account and unlink everything the account will be gone the skins will be gone everything will be gone what do i do
I started playing fortnite in nintendo switch and i tried to link my account to ps4 so i can have my progress there as well. I linked both of my consoles to my epic games account and then i started playing fortnite in ps4. I couldnt link my epic games account from the ps4 fortnite cause i had already done that from the epic games website. But when i moved forward to play none of my progress in fortnite was there. I dont get whats the problem :(
everyone before you make a mistake, make sure that you have no other accounts for playvs. I messed up and have about 3, but I didnt know my epic account was connected on one i didnt want it to be on, so make sure none of your other accounts are connected to your epic account
I really appreciate getting back with me I was trying to figure out what type of lobbies I was playing in on warzone I just hope Monday I will be able to actually talk to somebody
I have a question I have a PS4 account but I made another account on mobile with my email but I want to use that email and create a Epic account for my PS4 I’ve requested to delete the mobile one but what should I do next also if I create a epic account for my PS4 Will it delete all my progress
I really hope this helps me out. I accidentally deleted my nephews account and hope I can recover it. Then I unlinked my PSN account from my Epic account to see if I could log into his account but in the process I guess I lost all my stuff as well. Most stressful thing I've had to deal with. But it doesn't seem right to just have us lose all that stuff we paid for.
I agree. There should be some common sense to their deletion process. They should know, "Hey, this person has purchased items on their account. Maybe we should double-check before deleting it. At the very least, they should keep your account in a 'recently deleted' status and remain recoverable within 30 days or so.
@@FastTipsGaming So I found another video that kinda helped. I created a new Epic Account that was able to link to my PSN but when I start up Fortnite it keeps putting me on the account with none of my purchases and back at level 1
Does is cause an issue if I want to use a Dauntless/epic account that is different than the one I play fortnite on that is also linked to my switch? Its kind of confusing lol..
i started looking for my fortnite accounts email and password but i keep going to epic games and it sends me to create my epic account and i do everything and it says "this email is already in use by another epic account" what do i do l: please reply
no you are not it doesnt let you connect ps4 account to another ps4 account. jus email epic games saying u have a problem with this and tell them to disconnect your ps4 account so u can link it with another one
Hi so, I’ve been playing since season 2 and I am afraid that if I delete my account it will delete my data and storage. Can you confirm that will / will not happen?
So I recently had my psn accpunt connected to my psn account and i did something and nowy Nintendo switch fortnite account is connected to it how do i fix it??
Thank you I was freaking out Becuase when I tried to redeem my vbucks it didint let me pick Nintendo when I tried linking or connect it it said it’s already associated with another epic device I disconnected and request delete account and it will take 14 days after 14 days I will log in with the platform option and I will be able to redeem my vbucks card
i am trying to link my nintendo switch account to my ps4 but the already linked to another account keeps poping up how can i link my nintendo switch progress to my ps4? please help me out and thank you.
I'd email Epic Games just to be sure, but you might have created two official accounts on your ps4. I'd log into Epic's website and check which systems were linked. If your ps4 is already linked then you probably just have two accounts.
I traded accounts with my friend and I can’t get my account back because he got a new psn so my fortnite account is still connected to his psn any way to help me

It's because you have it linked to a "nameless account" that epic automatically sets up for you if you start playing Fortnite or Dauntless without logging in with your actual account. Follow the steps in the video and you'll be able to link them all up under one account.
Bro my fortnite account doesn’t even say that it’s already linked it just says failed to login, do I just do the same steps?
create new email and sign in to epic games by clicking the psn/ps4 option. put your new email and then after you are in go to connections and unlink the ps4. after that you can go to your original epic games account and link there the psn
Wait hold up I'm confused you said DONT disconnect my nameless account from my Xbox or I'll loose everything but then after say unlink everything and delete so if I follow through these steps I'll loose my years worth of RL data?
@Apex if i do this is it gonna link to my old or New epic games account
ATTENTION!!! I had a problem of trying to link my epic account to my xbox and because i played dauntless with the "nameless" acc ive found the solution, sign out of epicgames go to sign in and sign in with your xbox acc then go and unlink the xbox acc from the newly made acc then go back to the acc you originally wanted and link it.
literally exactly what i said in the vid but yeah lol
@@FastTipsGaming no your solution sounds like you want the nameless account rather than an already existing account since you told people to delete their already existing epic acc
Hi, just double checking to make sure I don't mess up. I made an Epic account that I want to keep and link my psn to it. After I create an account onto the nameless one with a new email do I then just delete?
haha headless... just make sure you unlink your psn account. delete your epic - NOT your psn. wait until confirmation email from epic that your account was deleted. create new epic by clicking psn icon.
i already deleted the account and signed out of my fortnite account but it says i cannot link it to another external account cua i already linked it to a differnet external account and i can only link it to the first extrenal account not a new one. do u know how to fix this
my epic was linked to a xbox acc i dont have access to anymore , so i made a brand new xbox account . is this how i link it to my new xbox account ?
if your old xbox account was linked to your epic games account then unlinking it shouldn't be a problem. you'll lose your purchases made on your old xbox account but linking your new xbox account shouldn't be a problem.
If i deleted the steam account, would I fix "Account Already Linked"?
Hey man, so recently I got banned on my psn account, so I created a new ps4 account, and I wanna link my epic games account to my new ps4 account, but what happens if I unlink the account that got banned, will I loose all my skins and vbucks? Pls respond man I’m so scared ☹️😭
Man everytime I try to link my new Nintendo switch account it always goes with the old switch account and doesn't let me choose what account I'm gonna link with
wont this delete all of my epic games data? like, all my pc games? all my saves? im not doing that its not worth it
i just bought a account today with my fav account peely but i cant log into it because its already exist on switch and im afraid that if i delete the account and unlink everything the account will be gone the skins will be gone everything will be gone what do i do
I started playing fortnite in nintendo switch and i tried to link my account to ps4 so i can have my progress there as well. I linked both of my consoles to my epic games account and then i started playing fortnite in ps4. I couldnt link my epic games account from the ps4 fortnite cause i had already done that from the epic games website. But when i moved forward to play none of my progress in fortnite was there. I dont get whats the problem :(
everyone before you make a mistake, make sure that you have no other accounts for playvs. I messed up and have about 3, but I didnt know my epic account was connected on one i didnt want it to be on, so make sure none of your other accounts are connected to your epic account
I'm trusting you bro I deleted my account and I'm waiting just like u said
It worked??????
@@nimirtv3578 idk yet its still processing the deletion
Jayden Beasley did it work yet??
@@kartiertags no. nobody ever do this method itz a fuken scam
@@vtrxppyy9568 wait what account did you delete? Your main one? Or the temporary one you’re to trying to link to your main epic account?
Please help me my xbox account is my also epic games account, so if i delete my epic games acc will my xbox fortnite acc deleted too?
I realise this is an old post but I accidentally unlinked my Activision account will I be able to get all of it back
If it was simply unlinked and not deleted then it should be fine
I really appreciate getting back with me I was trying to figure out what type of lobbies I was playing in on warzone I just hope Monday I will be able to actually talk to somebody
@@tylergarris9472 no problem. hope everything works out mate
I have a question I have a PS4 account but I made another account on mobile with my email but I want to use that email and create a Epic account for my PS4 I’ve requested to delete the mobile one but what should I do next also if I create a epic account for my PS4 Will it delete all my progress
Will it still work now?
Whir twerp yes it’s still working in 2020
Do you have to get a email after deleting ur acount cuz i didnt get it in 2 days time,and how much time maximum does it take? Plz REPLY
Samera Kaleem mine came about three days later. Give it a week just in case.
I really hope this helps me out. I accidentally deleted my nephews account and hope I can recover it. Then I unlinked my PSN account from my Epic account to see if I could log into his account but in the process I guess I lost all my stuff as well. Most stressful thing I've had to deal with. But it doesn't seem right to just have us lose all that stuff we paid for.
I agree. There should be some common sense to their deletion process. They should know, "Hey, this person has purchased items on their account. Maybe we should double-check before deleting it. At the very least, they should keep your account in a 'recently deleted' status and remain recoverable within 30 days or so.
@@FastTipsGaming So I found another video that kinda helped. I created a new Epic Account that was able to link to my PSN but when I start up Fortnite it keeps putting me on the account with none of my purchases and back at level 1
StringsTTV You’re dogshit anyway there’s no point.
@@riyoshiesty5165 lmfao you really replying to a 4 month old comment? go to bed kid I got more squad wins than you can dream of lmao
@@stringsttv1310 I'm not with the other guy but I have ttv in he name I mean c'mon bud ur gonna talk shi!
Do you lose your stuff when you delete your account?????
Does is cause an issue if I want to use a Dauntless/epic account that is different than the one I play fortnite on that is also linked to my switch?
Its kind of confusing lol..
kingoflifetree it won’t cause a problem, you’ll just have two accounts with different skins and items on each one
i started looking for my fortnite accounts email and password but i keep going to epic games and it sends me to create my epic account and i do everything and it says "this email is already in use by another epic account" what do i do l:
please reply
Need help plz it says failed to link account already associated with a different account
Right. You're more than likely linked to the "nameless account." Follow the steps in the video to solve it.
no you are not it doesnt let you connect ps4 account to another ps4 account. jus email epic games saying u have a problem with this and tell them to disconnect your ps4 account so u can link it with another one
Hi so, I’ve been playing since season 2 and I am afraid that if I delete my account it will delete my data and storage. Can you confirm that will / will not happen?
Roo as long as you unlink it first, wait for confirmation, and don’t delete the wrong account, you should be fine.
it will delete!!!!
kc spades yeah i’m not risking
@@RyGoofies i did it big mastake
i had og ghoul
So as long as nothing is linked and you delete it it won’t delete the account
So I recently had my psn accpunt connected to my psn account and i did something and nowy Nintendo switch fortnite account is connected to it how do i fix it??
Thank you I was freaking out Becuase when I tried to redeem my vbucks it didint let me pick Nintendo when I tried linking or connect it it said it’s already associated with another epic device I disconnected and request delete account and it will take 14 days after 14 days I will log in with the platform option and I will be able to redeem my vbucks card
So it worked for you?
@@jnomura1590 yes
I can't connect my PS4 with my epic account it says it's connected now what to do how can I fix that my epic account has a lot of skins
I’m scared to delete my account
Same
If I delete would I lose all of my friends on that account?
i am trying to link my nintendo switch account to my ps4 but the already linked to another account keeps poping up how can i link my nintendo switch progress to my ps4? please help me out and thank you.
Ok so I did everything but I created the account on my ps4. And when I got back on fortnite I was still on the default account? Please help!
I'd email Epic Games just to be sure, but you might have created two official accounts on your ps4. I'd log into Epic's website and check which systems were linked. If your ps4 is already linked then you probably just have two accounts.
So basically i have to delete my acc and create a new one using my psn info?
FBI correct
FastTipsGaming will it keep everything on it if your on mobile or pc ?
Clxppy mobile and/or pc shouldn’t matter as long as you’re using the account you created through epic
I Lost my account
Ur main one?!?!? Damn...
I traded accounts with my friend and I can’t get my account back because he got a new psn so my fortnite account is still connected to his psn any way to help me
u delete the nameless account in part 1?
