Let me briefly introduce myself. I came into contact with this game in Season 9. Until now, I have played for more than 3,500 hours before being banned in Season 25, and I have also invested nearly $2,000. I love this game very much. When I came into contact with it, I felt that it was different from other games, which is why I am willing to invest so much time and money in it.I am also improving my skills little by little, from the gold at the beginning to the first pread rank when I played 2,000 hours in Season 19. I also participated in CC competitions with my friends, which is the algs qualifiers we are familiar with. Although I didn't advance, it was also a good memory.But all this ended today. On April 15, 2025, I received an email from EA informing me that I was banned for cheating, but I haven't even logged into the game this season. I have witnessed the prosperity and decline of Apex with my own eyes, but even so I still love this game, but now my loyal fan account has been banned and I don't know how to support it anymore.

I've been banned without a reason also toady, I've made another account to see what's going on in the game and saw many ppl banned during games, I assumed there was some major ban-wave, well after 5 hours of playing hackers were back in the lead, I got into teams that were running across entire map to meet some team you shouldnt even hear or know was there obviously, got deleted by 2 shot r-99'ers like before (all headshots ofc **bleep** thos hacks they have are so cost efective nowadays he didnt even put half his clip into me), seems that EA banned lots of ppl but it didn't help at all, fun fackt - [CM note- this part was removed based on our rules], this game is dead lol

Thank you for your attention and comfort. My account was unbanned after one day of ban. The interesting thing is that although my appeal email was rejected, it automatically unbanned my game. xd

Thank you for your attention and comfort. My account was unbanned after one day of ban now. The interesting thing is that although my appeal email was rejected, it automatically unbanned my apex. It seems that there are serious problems with EA's anti-cheat ban now.

Hey ROSEKILLER_OVOI was banned earlier this month. Still in a dispute war with a EA Help. I had an EA Adviser tell me “sorry make a new account”. I was rank grinding this split so I had to make a new account and rush to plat so I can play with my plat/diamond team. My (banned) main account is currently Diamond IV.My boyfriend who has a burner, helped me obviously. And guess what, he was banned today. It’s not our fault that we’re DIAMOND players in Bronze lobbies. That’s EA’s problem. Stop banning honest players and the new comers can enjoy the game at their own pace.I was banned for “cheating” with my under 0.5 k/d … right cheating.. I play support. I keep the team alive and get assists. I’m very close to just streaming something else at this point. Hope you have better luck with your account!

ROSEKILLER_OVO, P1stolero_pl, RealSwtpotatoTTV Unfortunately, bans cannot be handled on the forums. You would have to contact the EA TOS Team, (like what RealSwtpotatoTTV had said they done).

This indicates that your account was possibly hacked, so I suggest contacting the EA Support Team to recover your account, and then contact the EA TOS Team to dispute the ban.

Playing on a second account after getting banned would be considered "ban evading", (which would get the second account banned, and the first account's ban would be even harder to dispute with the EA TOS Team since you had evaded its ban).

The only reason I’m asking about the mesh is because it’s a unit plugged into my router on the first floor, with one unit plugged into the second floor (via outlet) and one in the attic where my set up is. On the back of these units you can plug an Ethernet into, which I could connect my set up for a stable connection or use WiFi. But the WiFi is a separate “profile” from my router if that makes sense. It’s not an extender it’s a whole different “network” piggy backed off my home router.
home WiFi name: generic Fios jibberish and password
mesh network name: custom name and password
My boyfriend and I (who both use the mesh) got the hammer within a week or two apart.

RealSwtpotatoTTV Interesting setup, but as I've mentioned, I don't know if that would get you flagged or not.

For the connection I was on, I was outside the router's range by about 15 feet, so I had to use the extender to get it to reach where I was.

It's not your mesh network. Mesh is just another form of WiFi and EA nor the Apex game have anyway of knowing what type of network you're on.

Honest players who invest (time and money) get banned without letting justify themselves, and if they do, they get disregarded by EA.

However, hackers will EASILY get away with their toxic shenanigans, and let voice chat abusers (swearers, downgraders, non-English speakers on English channels etc.) live their days cuz they have NO WORKING systems to prevent these.
EA is tragic at best, and we keep on playing because the game (at base) is good. Any improvements/ changes are usually for the worst. ''Well, ItzzzTimmy is not complaining since we're paying him money, so we guess the game has been peak since it came out.'' as they ignore EVERY major complain about the game from the larger player base.
