What should I do if I authorized the wrong Epic account?
Pause the setup when the linked identity is wrong. Use the website's supported change-account or recovery controls and authorize the intended Epic account; changing a local nickname does not replace the underlying account.
Confirm the mismatch before continuing
Read the account shown in the linking summary and compare it with the account you intended to supply for the bot. Your real player's verified name is a separate part of setup, so make sure you are comparing the correct roles. If the mismatch is real, stop before starting a limited session or opening a purchase based on that identity. A browser already signed in to Epic can make an unintended authorization look successful because the approval itself completed without an error.
Change the authorization rather than the label
A nickname entered on the website can organize how a bot appears in your panel, but it does not transform one Epic account into another. Return to the linking controls, use the normal Epic account selection process, and check the name before approving the new code. Keep only one intended setup active so an older tab does not overwrite your understanding of the result. Do not edit private identifiers or submit guessed recovery requests as a shortcut around the account checks.
Treat an existing owned bot separately
If the account is already tied to a paid or saved bot, use that bot's own recovery path instead of creating a fresh unrelated setup. The service checks that account recovery belongs to the correct bot and owner. If the interface cannot resolve the mismatch, contact support with a description of the step and the type of account involved. Leave passwords, temporary codes, complete authorization links, and account secrets out. Avoid another purchase until you understand which bot identity the current checkout would actually activate.
