I think Razer Synapse software got me banned

Recently I went on PC with controller because I got a new PC last month on Christmas. I made my account on PS4 so I've been playing controller since then and still do right now even though I'm on PC. 6 days in on PC, I'm level 70 something. Out of nowhere I just get banned for apparently "cheating". How could that be the case? Is it because I killed about 21-22 players in Bronze ranked? If that's the case, that's complete BS. I have 16 kills on PS4 ranked and currently I am Diamond rank on PS4.

I recently emailed them on why I got banned. They never specified whether I used aimbot, wallhacks, or whatever other cheats there are. They only said I was banned for "cheating".

So this is my new email to them. And currently, I'm pretty pissed off since I never cheated. Unless you count using a controller on PC "cheating" then I suppose so.

P.S. Made a new account and 3 days in playing PC with my PS4 controller and I'm still not banned. Hmmm? I wonder why? Maybe because I was being reported so much for having better skills that I got banned? That I'm a nobody who doesn't stream, have a YouTube channel and just a simple guy who's actually good at the game and just wants to play? Hmm...

Yea, there's a lot of sarcasm in that P.S. note. I'm just expressing my anger with a ban that shouldn't have ever happened.

New appeal to EA:

I have been playing this game since February 5th 2019 on PS4 and recently a brand new PC for Christmas. I switched over from PS4 to PC with controller. 6 days of playing PC with a PS4 controller and I get banned for "cheating"? Where is your proof? I DID NOT cheat on my account that got banned. I even made a new account and still use a PS4 controller and guess what? That account hasn't been banned for the past 3 days. So obviously your team is selecting each player to be banned rather than detecting an actual use of cheating.

Also, there's no mention of me using wallhacks or aimbot. Only that I am "cheating". Did you know I am using a Razer mouse? I have to go to Task Manager and delete "Lighting service 32" or whatever it's called. Because otherwise the game crashes and I get an error saying that I am in violation of using a software, etc. etc. So I'm guessing you guys banned me because of that?

Jesus Christ. Whoever banned me needs to be more transparent. Because this is simply absurd. A player on PS4 who has played in almost a year moves to PC with his PS4 controller and gets banned in 6 days for being too good at the game.

P.S. I changed my named from Veilfreyja to Veilfreyja_OnPS4 on PC to show I'm using a controller and not a freaking mouse & keyboard

I'm Diamond rank on PS4 named "Veilfreyja" with the same account that got banned on PC. Got like 16 kills in ranked PS4 and about 22 on PC. I'm sure those Bronze and Silver ranked players probably all reported me for "cheating" because I made them cry getting owned by a controller player.

Search up my name on PS4 Apex Tracker "Veilfreyja". That's the same account I use on PC that got me banned. I was level 70 something on PC and I'm about 600 on PS4, but shows level 566 for whatever reason.

I just re-read my email along with everything I've been thinking of and I think Razer's mouse RGB program called "Razer Synapse" got me banned because of LightingService(32 bit) that crashes the game. And so I assume the EAC thinks I'm trying to use a 3rd party software tool to cheat in the game... Do you think that could be the root cause of it all? Seems more plausible. Every time I open the game, I keep forgetting to delete it. So the game crashes, I delete LightingService (32 bit) and reopen the game. Then, I'm able to play perfectly fine.
