Re: Just got permabanned for [Edit - Admin.]

@Milytary-MarZ 

How do you know its [Edit - Admin.] that gets you banned? Many unexpected bans happens due to banned hardware/shared computers with a cheater. Also, Respawn also often ban multiple players retroactively for using exploits, like banner farming outside the ring with premade enemy squads, map glitch exploits or various loss forgive exploits.

    As I have not used any exploit or cheat I cannot have been banned for that.
    I do not share my account or do boosting or whatever.
    I play with my two IRL friends most of the time and we are not even good.

    And I have played this way since season 1, over 1100hours gameplay.
    The only new thing added to the mix was the [Edit - Admin.] Apex Stat Tracker.
    I installed the app to see my improvement over time with weapons, 3 games later I'm banned.

    One very suspicious thing is that after the first ban nothing showed up in "my ban history", and as said I was unbanned after 24 hours.
    Only after I asked why I was banned in the first place, they permabanned me.

  • Thats exactly what I have done.
    However they wont tell my why I was banned. "We will also be unable to provide any details regarding our internal procedures." (see attached images)
    They just point to the ToS and that I have cheated...
    But as stated before I have not, something must trigger a false flag.
    Why wont anybody tell me anything, I'm wrongly banned.

    If the team you are referring to does not help me, what should I do?
    Does anybody care?
    Could you help me get in touch with anybody that knows more about this?

    @Milytary-MarZ Sorry but talking to tos team is pointless, you will only get prebuilt answers. Make a new account or end your apex career nothing else to do

    Yea that's the feeling about ToS team right now they just don't care enough to help me resolve this.

    I was able to get my EA data to get a better understanding of again why in the first place I was banned.
    The data shows:
     "PIL_Transactions": [
    {
    "gameDomain": "APEX_LEGENDS",
    "mode": "BAN",
    "context": "ALL",
    "reason": "Competitive Advantage",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "startDate": "2023-10-04T12:23:09",
    "platform": "ALL"
    }
    ],

    So the current reason and only known statement regarding my ban from EA is:
    "Competitive Advantage"

    That's all..
    I have now created a 3rd errand regarding this, fun!

    Not sure what program was mentioned, though if they had to take it out of the thread then I'm sure it's definitely something that's not allowed in-game.

    Yea I guess, I have asked them if it is the reason for the ban but they wont answer me.
    It's a very popular tracker program to track your progress ingame, I was under the impression it was ok to use as many other FPS games allow it, for example Valorant, CS2, LoL and Diablo.
    Would be nice to know WHY I was banned.

    Hello, I dont know if you will see this since it has been a long time, I banned just after buying battlefield 1 on steam and playing 80 minutes only in single player mode. no reason given. I tried to dispute but I am pretty sure nothing will happen. this was my first EA game and first account. Hopefully I can refund on steam but I want to wait for their second response before I do. If they tell me again the ban was correct then its goodbye to EA forever for me.

    Anyways when I see you looked into your EA data, I did the same just to have some kind of closure as to why I got banned. The hilarious thing is there isn't any reason lol. 

    "PIL_Transactions": [
    {
    "gameDomain": "ACCOUNT",
    "mode": "BAN",
    "context": "ALL",
    "reason": "ACCOUNT_BAN",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "startDate": "2024-08-16T13:24:20",
    "platform": "ALL"
    }
    ],

    Also I want to show you the creation of the account; ban did not even took 24 hours
