Help with Account

I haven't been to active in UO in months but have kept my account up. Today I went to log in and got the blocked account screen.

So I went to UO.com to edit account and they changed everything. They ask for a email account now! I always logged in with my uo account name and password.

Now I cant log in at all. I have no clue as to what to do. I started the account back in 99 so I dont even know what email is attached to it.

In another post, I asked for a flowchart that would tell you exactly what is required. Absent the chart, you are basically on your own like everyone else. I can't tell you exactly what you have to do, but the new scenario is that you have to have a Master Mythic account. Try setting up a new one. Then within the Mythic account, you have to have an EA account. Within the EA account you finally get to your UO account. It gets real unclear real fast what passwords, emails and such you need to get to your account management page. Good luck.

Billing and Technical Support


• What if I misplaced/forgot my account information?
o You will be able to recover your account information if you have the correct current email address and billing information.
• Who do I contact for tech support/billing support?
o There are a few different contact points for Billing and Technical Support. Please note that Billing and Technical Support will be available only in English.
 Email: [email protected]
 Phone: 001-650-628-1001 (10am to 10pm EST, 7 days a week.)
• Can I contact in-game support?
o Of course! CSRs are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year! They can help with explanations but still might ask you to contact billing support additionally.
• Are you going to add more billing options?
o We are actively exploring additional payment methods, and will keep you informed as more options become available.
• If I already have an EA Account will I need to update my billing information?
o No. You will not need to update your billing information for individual accounts. As part of the billing system update, all payment information is encrypted and moved securely. However, on your first login to the account center you will be required to verify your billing information payment methods are accurate.
• I have multiple Ultima Online accounts and EA Accounts, do I need to update my payment information?
o If you are on recurring billing or game time card all of your payment information and game time information will be moved across all individual accounts. You must use your current login info (email address and password for each account).
• I would like to merge all of my accounts under on single EA Account:
o Due to the legal constraints of moving payment information across accounts, it is necessary to re-enter billing payment information should you decide to merge multiple accounts under one single Master EA Account. We understand this is often a tedious task, but it’s for the safety and security of your personal account information.
• Am I able to make a new account?
o Absolutely!
• Will there be a support website?
o Yes! Please check out Support | Mythic Entertainment | Ultima Online. In addition, most of your needs can be taken care of with an email to [email protected].

***********************************************************************

It's a lot, I know.... for me, I'd just call the 866-543-5435 and hope for a competent customer service rep...... there are far too many posts about 'how to set up your account management' stuff, so if there's an easy way to do it I hope someone posts that for ya


Larisa, like everything else that's been offered to us, that page, nowhere, that I can see at least, instructs someone that has an Ultima Online account and has no clue about what email, has no idea what a Mythic or EA account is, ... while I understand that it's across all EA games, specific instructions for UO players might have been real handy at the onset of this debacle.. that they overlooked the willingness of the entire Stratics staff to help in any way possible (which they *always* do) beforehand is just mind-boggling

All I know is my UO account info

The email attached to the account is dead. The domain is gone. I have had over 20 email accounts since 99 and as for a EA account I don't know or remember.

I agree Flutter, that they should have been game-specific in the instructions.

Mythic Master Account is your game account:

IF you play Ultima Online, your MMA is your UO Account followed by _UO

IF you play WarHammer, your MMA is your WarHammer Account followed by...I have no clue cus I don't play that :)

But yes I agree.

For us UO people, and Lefty, the Mythic Master Account, since ALL Mythic games are now under one *site* is the name of your game account.

MyUltimaOnlineAccount_UO is how it would look.

Since your e-mail is now defunct, your only option is to call Customer Support.

Good Luck!

Do you remember the username and password you used in the client to play the game ?
If yes, you do not need the email attached to the account anymore.

Yeah you could try that.

On the main Account management page, bottom right you'll see this:

http://i56.***********/vh3jn8.jpg

Don't click on forgot password, this is an older pic. Just put your UO Account name (Mythic Master Account) followed by _uo.

For example..if you're UO Account name is iwinatuo you would put:

iwinatuo_uo

THEN the password associated with that account.

That SHOULD let you log in to the account management system.
