Account Reset after merge.

Posting to either give people a heads up or seeing if anyone knows a work around.

So I played about 60 hours of the Early Access of Poe 2 into my steam account and everything was fine. I went ahead and bought it on my ps5 and linked my steam account and PlayStation account to my Path of exile account from their website. It forced me to use a different email when linking a email to the account than the email i have setup with my steam account. After which I lost access to all of my existing characters on both ps5 and steam. I went ahead and emailed support. If they respond back Ill write what the end results are.
