Need to swap primary email to a deleted account

I needed to change my primary email address for the Adobe account before I buy the subscription, so it stays with the desired email address.

However I realized that at some point in time, an account was created with the target email address.

So I went ahead and deleted that entire Adobe account. It's been 48 hours since, and it still says "Email already used."

As per this help article, I should have simply added suffix like "+old" to my spare account's primary email and went ahead with the change in the main account.

However now what's done is done, I need to figure out a way to fix this. One guess is that the account deletion is still in the pool and once that happens it should work, but there's no ETA on that.

TL;DR Have two accounts. Wants to use primary email of the second for the first. But ended up deleteing the second account and now is stuck.

Any help will be appreciated.
