[Vanilla] Link 2K Account

[Kopernikus1979]

Hi,

when I go to my 2K, I link my Nintendo account with 2K. I can see that in my Nintendo options and I got an email that my account is linked. But: within my 2K account, it doesn't show the "linked" information, only the "link with" information. So I retry to link, getting an email from Nintendo that I linked successfully, but 2K tells me in my account, that this Nintendo account is already linked to another 2K account.
So I tried to unlink in my Nintendo options, which worked perfect, but I still have the problem. More: starting Civ VI on my switch, I get asked to let 2K access to my Nintendo account. But the start screen of Civ VI show "2K offline". Pressing "X" the 2K access screen tells me to let 2K access my Nintendo account, which I confirm. But still 2K is offline.
Anything I can do?

I had this happen to me about six months ago. Double check the Switch firmware is 9.0.0 and the game is 1.0.5. Update any, if needed.

While I had my 2k account linked on PC the Switch was offline, as you already described. What I had to do is reset my password on the 2k site and create a new password. Once I did that I could link the Switch to my 2k account and vice versus.

Update: I had to accept that I share my birthday, which I denied before. After that, it worked. Not happy with the fact I have to share it, but ok.
