How long do I have to pester respawn to unban my account.

I am still upset that I was unrightfully banned for " cheating " when I have never cheated in a multiplayer game in my life. It's been 7 days since I submitted my ban appeal and still no answer and I am still banned. I have spent money on this game and play many hours on apex just to die and come back and play because I love the game!! I dont know how else to prove my innocence. I have lost all the hard work I put into the game, and all the things I have spent my money on.

  • @Nino_Z being as honest as I can behind a computer screen. Im just a stranger to everyone here but, I consider myself one of the most tolerable player. I will preach this to the day I die. Im not a toxic player, I dont rage quit, I dont cheat in multiplayer games.

    @MrPanda12 Only cheating should be punished in games. This is not a kindergarden. Your behavior towards other players is not relevant.

    @MrPanda12WELL YOU DID SOMETHING WRONG. ALT F4 alot ?? I don't care what anyone says, They don't wrongfully ban. They look at what you did then make a decision. you might not have hacked but you used a exploit im sure to get you banned

    Except for the fact that they do wrongfully bann. Ninja had his account banned on accident after months of not playing. Ninja was able to just tweet to the play apex twitter account and get unbanned in no time.

    But if you're a "peasant" you just get stonewalled. There's not even an actual policy to handle these incorrect banns despite the history of rather frequent occurrences.

    Any PC player, at any time, can get banned because someone using a HWID spoofer played with their system component ID's. 

    Imagine this is you and all you get when you seek help is flat out denial and accusations that you're a cheater.

    @Wingmannedbro thats what I'm saying... Like.... I know im just some stranger to everyone in this community, and im 100% everyone just see me as a cheater now... I dont know how to prove myself other than saying I am not a cheater. Its just very disheartening, and I will keep preaching this, that I spent so much money on just dumb cosmetics on a free game just to be banned... like... if i were made of money and had enough money to keep buying the same damn skins, then I wouldnt be here asking for my account back. Thats my logic behind that. It's like no matter how hard I try to tell people that respawn wrongfully banned me, everyone just shut me down and call me a cheater.
  • @Nino_Z did i mention that i dont cheat in multiplayer games? the other traits are just basically sprinkles to justify that im not a cheater.

    not true actually. i was falsely banned on my other account and after 12 days it was unbanned. they had banned it for cheating, and it was only unbanned after it got false flagged for a fraudulent log in when i signed in from my phone. their system is NOT perfect

    @ttvPiticus true I saw somewhere else they banned another player by mistake.

    This is why it's hard for them to just attack and ban all accused hackers since sometimes they could really just be good vs actually hacking.

    I've been called a cheater a few times when I manage to control recoil to zero but I've never cheater in games my entire life.

    @iBlockHead@ttvPiticusThank you guys for understanding! Im on day 8 so hopefully I will be unbanned by day 12. It really hurts me not to see the skins i worked for and or paid for.... First world problems, but I enjoy this game too mcuh to even purposely try to get banned.

  • My account was hacked into and I know exactly who had done it. I was out of town for 4 months without a pc and I was banned when I was not in town. I sent Respawn a ban appeal but I have not heard anything. I was wondering if you ever got unbanned.?
