[2020] Banned for cheating?

Hey MajinBuusBoobs,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

I have reviewed your ticket and can see what you're referring to.

Regrettably as the appeal was denied, our Support team is unable to assist you any further with this.

If you do however have a strong case and firmly believe there was a mistake somewhere, you might have some luck contacting BattlEye, however I do not want to set any expectation for this.

@EK_Aikon 

 

If you have already gone through the steps below, we will need you to wait for our response. 

 

The team involved in ban appeals is very busy presently and replies are taking longer than usual.

Thanks.

Hey @xmedina 

 

We would be unable to assist with Bans on the forums you would need to get in contact with our TOS team here. If you have further questions about Bans you can check out our post with more information.

Hi, please don't post personal info here, we've removed that now. 

If your account has been suspended, please reach out to support, check this page for more info: https://help.ea.com/en/help/account/information-about-banned-or-suspended-accounts/

@kelisakuneng 

 

Our Terms of Service team has the final say on account actions, If you have already followed the steps below, there is nothing further we can do.

Thanks.

@JJayhawk2024
If that turns out to be the case, you're welcome to send in a second appeal to have a separate person from the Terms of Service team look through everything again.

Ultimately the decision for an initial ban and any appeals are based on what we can verify in our records for the game and account activity.

That's something that can only be done by the TOS team and they'll have the final say, so it really just depends on what they find in their review(s).

@JJayhawk2024
That would be based on our internal records and information, so not something we would share I'm afraid, no.

You should have received an email with some general information, but there wouldn't be anything as specific as a particular play available to share.

Hi there, @NekoNoTenshi.

 

Nobody will be able to go into detail on why you were banned. You're just told the general reason for it. The best you can do is submit a dispute. That can be done through the following article. Thank you.

@NekoNoTenshi 

 

You were emailed the reason for your ban. We can't discuss this on Answers HQ, but you're welcome to contact an advisor and they can tell you the general reason for your ban. They won't go into greater detail than you were given in the email though. Keep in mind, when you first play our games you agree to the Terms of Service. When these are violated, action can and most likely will be taken against your account.

 

@goddepiedra123 @ellecheman 

 

Please see my first response for assistance with banned accounts.

@NekoNoTenshi 

 

Those emails are sent by real people. Not bots. Yes, they will use a canned email, but they are sent by a real person that investigates the account. If there have been multiple disputes submitted and none have turned up evidence that the rules were not broken, it means they have found the account in violation through multiple, thorough investigations. There is nothing we can do to help through Answers HQ. I'm very sorry.

Hello Shaii444ko, welcome to the forums.

If you have already tried to appeal your ban and had a denial for cheating, I am afraid we are unable to help further once a decision has been made.

We are also unable to discuss bans in the forum in detail.

Please make sure to follow our Code of Conduct and make sure to secure your account -

Hey @bc5000,

 

I'm also not seeing any cases created for this, so you may need to try again with a specific link.

 

Please be sure you've gone through these specific steps to appeal this ban with our Terms of Service team:

 

• https://help.ea.com/en/help/account/information-about-banned-or-suspended-accounts/  

That will create a case for the ToS team to investigate, and they will reach back out to you via email as soon as that investigation is complete.

Hi there, @sentientcup 

 

Unfortunately, we're unable to help with banned and/or hacked accounts. There are a couple of articles that can help with these. For banned accounts please see this article. You can find assistance with hacked accounts here. Thanks!

@sleeedai Hi there, if the appeal to dispute the ban on your account was denied, Ubisoft Support has no ability to overturn a ban placed on your account. No further review will be made, and any inquiries into such will be met with the same answer.

Hello @bokumore
 
Your account can be temporarily sanctioned for varying amounts of time due to repeatedly breaking the Siege Code of Conduct or disconnecting from Ranked matches multiple times or being reported by other players. You can also be given a permanent ban, depending on what the offence was.
 
The actions that can lead to temporary and permanent bans can include >
- Toxic behaviour in-game
- Inappropriate voice or text chat
- Repeated disconnections
- Cheating or using an unfair advantage
- Illegal behaviour/activity 
- Account buying/selling
 
Please read our updated Code of Conduct here > https://www.ubisoft.com/en-gb/game/rainbow-six/siege/news-updates/4h4MEtQwhxnOtNrH6KGMi2/rainbow-six-siege-code-of-conduct
 
Ubisoft Support are unable to lift any temporary bans as this is handled automatically by the game.
 
Permanent bans may be appealed, but we can only do this once for your account. You can get in touch with us about this, via this link > https://www.ubisoft.com/help/contact
 
We are unable to discuss player's bans in the forum in detail, so this thread will be closed. Thank you for understanding.

In relation to any ban @GhostSHW1, you will need to speak to our Terms of Service team

You will need to give our team time to investigate and respond @GhostSHW1,

 

Darko 

Hey @imcrackedboi,

 

I'm afraid we are unable to review any bans or suspensions on the forums.

 

Please be sure to reach out to our Terms of Service team with these steps.

 

They'll be able to review this and will reach out via email once they complete the investigation, thanks!

Hi @TheFlagellant123, 

 

I'm sorry but we won't know why you were banned from the forums. Can you take a look through your emails? There should be an email from Terms of Service that shares the general rule broken for example: ban applied for cheating/hacking/hate speech/etc. This article shares more about Apex and the rules: "Play by the rules in Apex Legends".

Hey @0H7Fp2Oe5t,

 

If this all took place while you were away and not even accessing the account, I would definitely go through these security steps as much as possible to make sure no one else may have access to your account info. 

 

After that point please try creating a new appeal with these steps rather than resuming a prior case. That will send the appeal directly to our Terms of Service team to have them investigate this situation further.

 

If that's also still giving you trouble, I would suggest reaching out to support directly. They will be unable to review the ban itself, but can help make sure the account has been re-secured and should be able to make sure your case is passed along to the ToS team from that point.

Hi @Smoked_de,

I mentioned it above but we won't have that information on here. Please check out the pinned post for more on that and follow the advise if it applies to you.

Hi @MonstuRrInerGee,  

 

We are unable to assist with BAN disputes or provide information on Answers HQ. You will want to fill out this online forum to reach out to our TOS team for further assistance.  

  

If you have checked your Ban History, please note not all Bans may appear here. If you have further questions about Bans or investigations I would recommend checking out our Help Links below. 

    

• How EA bans and suspensions work    
• Investigate your banned or suspended account    

  

Thanks!

Hey @gloomfilla,

 

I'm afraid we cannot review or make any changes to account actions on the forums.

 

While you may receive some templated replies, appeals are reviewed by actual members of our Terms of Service team and are not handled by bots.

 

You're welcome to submit an additional appeal to have this looked into again, though if our ToS has completed multiple reviews and decided not to remove an action, I'm afraid that will be final and not something we can change here either.

Hey @Adapik,

Unfortunately we're not able to help or provide information about bans here on the forums. If you'd like to raise a dispute to try to get your account unbanned, then you can contact our terms of service team via the webform in the following article:

https://help.ea.com/en/help/account/information-about-locked-or-banned-or-suspended-accounts/

They'll be able to look into this for you.

Wees aardig voor elkaar | Be kind to each other

@Adapik,

Apex should run fine on Linux and the Steam Deck (Which uses Linux), so there shouldn't be any reason you'd be banned for normal play on that OS.

Wees aardig voor elkaar | Be kind to each other

@Adapik,

Unfortunately we're not able to provide information about bans here on the forums. I wish I could be of more help, but bans just aren't something we're able to look into here.

Wees aardig voor elkaar | Be kind to each other

Hey all,

I'm going to lock this thread as it's going massively off topic. I appreciate that you're trying to help Adapik, but Apex doesn't run like a game like Battlefield does.

Wees aardig voor elkaar | Be kind to each other

Hey guys, thank you for posting.

I'm sorry to hear that you are currently facing a permanent sanction.

I'm afraid there is not much we do from the forums as this type of request has to go through our 1-to-1 channels to get the investigations going.

Please reach out to us through any of your preferred channels below:
Support - Facebook - Twitter

Thank you!

Hey @iiTzGeo

I can only apologise for the delay to responding to your ticket. If you still haven't got a reply, please rest assured that we will get to it and will need to be handled through the ticket as it's not something we can discuss in a public channel. 

Hey @xavior03,

Unfortunately we can't help with bans here on the forums. If you'd like to raise a dispute, I recommend that you reach out to our terms of service team via the webform in the following article:

https://help.ea.com/en/help/account/information-about-locked-or-banned-or-suspended-accounts/

They can take a look at this for you.

Wees aardig voor elkaar | Be kind to each other

Hey @duffyfunk3,

 

You should receive an email with some additional details whenever there's an action on your account, such as a ban or suspension.

 

Since you haven't played in a while and may not be sure when that showed up, it would generally be best to reach out to our Terms of Service team directly to appeal the ban.

 

You can follow these steps to create an appeal: https://help.ea.com/en/help/account/information-about-locked-or-banned-or-suspended-accounts/ 

 

Our ToS team will reach back out to you via email once they've completed the investigation, so please keep an eye out for that email to arrive.

Hello @0ALPELAHZAP0,

 

please contact EA Support to dispute a ban. We cannot help you with this issue here in the forum.

Please wait several days as it takes time for the team to review a ban. You can check the status of your case here.
