Dont use the same ssh key for mutiple accounts. Please use one ssh key for one account.

remove the heroku credentials

rm ~/.heroku/credentials

And then upload the key manually

heroku keys:add ~/.ssh/otheraccount.pub

Enter your Heroku credentials and thats it!!

strangely enough i could solve the problem with: clearing the keys, deleting credentials switching to other accounts and back again.
