I recently got a gaming laptop, and have been playing destiny. I accidentally linked my Xbox Live account to my new Bungie account, instead of the new Blizzard account to my old Xbox account. This happened just today 7/23/19, so I haven't passed the 90 day limit yet (afterwards it gets deleted). I have unlinked my Xbox Account from my new Bungie/Blizzard account, and when I attempt to sign in with my Xbox Live it asks to recover it to either my Blizzard account or my Dummy account I created.

To help with confusion I have 3 accounts
A) Original 2011 account in which I am trying to recover -https://www.bungie.net/en/Profile/254/3091656/Demon%20JD
B) New Blizzard linked account - https://www.bungie.net/en/Profile/254/21316541/DemonJD
C) Dummy Xbox account -which is connected to my Xbox account. - https://www.bungie.net/en/Profile/254/21326554/Demon%20JD
Just as a quick run down
1. Had account A since 2011 connected via Xbox
2. Recently started playing on PC with account B
3. Accidentally Linked Xbox Account with B
-n turn, unlinking with account A
4. Unlinked Xbox from account B
5. Attempted to Recover account A by signing in
6. It didn't ask to recover to old account
7. Ended up created account C with Xbox Live
*edit* 7/24
I have tried an incognito window to try and get the "Recover" option to pop - no luck
I have looked through a few other forums with no luck
There's a slight chance that I had created my bungie account with a different email, then later changed it, but I no longer have access to that email, and have been denied by Microsoft access to that account. It was, most likely, a Hotmail account, and I created it when I was 9 or 10 years old, so, it's old. But I may have used my current email to create it, and I do have access to it, but like I said, I don't get the option to recover my original account (A)
I used this account way back in the day to originally get the Blue-Flame Skull helmet on Halo Reach for Bungie Day on 7/7. I believe I also had some Halo 3 stuff on their as well. I don't know what information is relevant, so I am supplying as much as I can.
*Impotant* ? 7/25
My old account name was SPEEDxDEMON1978, and I have emails with the username "SPEEDxDEMON1978," and on top of that, you can see that I had replied to a forum post at one point:
https://www.bungie.net/en/Forums/Post/13730022?sort=0&page=0&path=1
I also have emails from when I requested password changes.
I have emails dating back to 10/13/2015
Please get this in front of Bungie, I need help getting my account back.

Something very similar happened to me. I've been on Bungie.net since 2009 and now linking my new Bliz account wiped my progress on that and my redemption codes also. I have no history of purchasing emblems that i have donated or purchased items for and have lost my Bungie.net profile. It's a bummer. pretty big bummer
