I have learned my lesson. Don't trust Ubisoft and do all admin yourself.

Long story short,I changed email address and service and forgot about Uplay, I was using a private email which was a temporary measure due to having my prior email address hacked twice by two separate IP's (Google are kind enough to release the IP).

However to my absolute naivety I thought I could log in just fine as I had been playing As Creed Unity through Steam.

I decided to login to the Uplay app separate to Steam but Uplay asked me to confirm my email and only sent confirmations to my now closed private email.

I tried in a web browser too.. no luck.
I tried to do this in game using the Uplay overlay... no luck yet there I was logged in somehow when I launch a game through Steam.

I tried to contact Ubisoft but the chat service is always down for me.
I tried over a few days and gave up.

I have since abandoned my previous Uplay account and created a new one under my now new email address and removed every game on Steam that requires Uplay.

Far Cry New Dawn.
Far Cry 5.
As Creed Unity.
As Creed Origins.

I bought a new PSU (MSI A850GF 850w 80 plus Gold and a Corsair 4000D.
The only reason I have re-bought these games cheap is because I get As Creed Valhalla + DLC for free with my MSI PSU purchase.

Please for anyone's sanity, remember to also change your Uplay email address if you switch.
 
Folks, I made a mistake, it's just that in recovering it is very hard to do as it as seemingly impossible for me to get in contact with Ubi.
This may well be different for other people.

I would rather not stress over it and just simply executed a simple fix, abandon it and start again, I barely lost much as the games were cheap.
