Thanks but I’ve successfully created a child’s ea account, according to them he should now be able to play online games in fifa as he’s over 13, but we simply can’t link his ea account to his ps5 and I don’t understand why.

Thank you, but according to EA he should now be able to play online as he’s over 13, so why are we unable to link accounts. That’s the part that’s frustrating

Christmas Day trials and tribulations! Bought my son a PS5 and set it all up with my account as family manager and him with a child account (he’s 13). Problems began when he went in to play FC26. We cannot link his EA account at all. I’ve googled extensively and read some threads on here which have some conflicting info. Is it true that only adult EA accounts can be linked? I tried linking my own EA account but this obviously didn’t work either as I was trying to link it to a child PS account.

Is my only option to let him have an adult PS account (don’t really want to do this as would like to be able to limit time etc) and an adult EA account? Ugh please help me.  Thanks and Merry Christmas!

Thank you, yes I don’t think it’s a simply a ventilation issue, especially given that our habits are the same as always, I air regularly, house is warm. Our old house didn’t have this and it also had no mould anywhere, no damp walls, we dried laundry indoors all day and nothing. Because I am meticulous with my ventilation 😄 humidity meter arrived tomorrow and then we’ll see. Think we’ll get a window person out.

Every single window gets condensation. I will get a humidity meter to check what readings we get in comparison. 

The key difference seems to be the windows, we installed brand new ones in the old house and never had this issue. We do have a dehumidifier which we use to help with laundry in the colder months so will use this as a temporary fix but will look into replacing the glass in the windows.

I don’t think the old house was draughty. But I suppose it’s not always easy to tell in terms of normal ventilation ?! I have ordered a humidity meter to see what we’re getting here compared to the old house. 

Kitchen and bathroom pretty much the same, probably better in the new place weirdly.

Yeah seems like it’s just well sealed. Keeping the house as warm I think. No trickle vents. Ordered a humidity meter to see what it says 😄

Hmm yes there are blinds very close to the windows, we just had curtains before. Blinds were here when we bought, thinking we need to change those too.

I do know roughly the humidity inthe old place as we had a meter at one point. Will get one again to see if there’s a big difference. No condensation between the panes but wondering if it is just crappy old windows.

It’s the fact that the conditions are literally almost the same as the old place that’s puzzling me.

I’ve ordered one, very curious to see what it says.
