Right... I have quite a complicated issue with Origin.

I made an origin account ages ago. I recently decided to download a game off origin. As I needed a credit card I used my mum's and somehow managed to make a second origin account using my mum's email address. So now I sort of have two origin accounts but the one I actually need to use, uses my mum's email address.

How do I go about deleting my old account and changing the email address to my own on the second account?

Thanks

You'll probably have to call orgin for them to delete your account.

They don't have a contact number? That I can find anyway.

Change the email on the one with the credit card to your email

I can't find how to change the email address that's the problem.

Very, very helpful you know.

You can submit a support ticket at the link below, but I have dealt with them many times and I know the result, call EA. You will need to call them, so I would use Skype(it a freephone number) as the waiting times are fucking ridiculous.
As far as I know you need a ticket number to do it, so I would use the live chat before you call them.

Precisely.

And because it's EA.

The answer to all of this is: register on Steam.
