EA your services are crap, and I genuinely hope you get hit by a bus. And don't think I'm not going to fight for a refund on my battle pass

I know the cause of the error, hackers were DDos attacking apex servers and people reported, now to fix the attacks on servers guess what they did? They placed a ban on African ip addresses, Nigerians and South Africans and other African countries cannot play anymore, the reason is because most SA gamers use telkom and most Nigerians use MTN, and the both isp does not run static ip addresses, so unless your ip is static and not dynamic , you will get the error code! But they failed because this is not a fix at all, they made it impossible for Most Africans and even some Australias on dynamic ip to play Apex, We love the game and spend on it but here we are, locked out, and the hackers are still attacking!! So why won’t you lift the restriction !!! Fix your game!! Not lock people out!! Fix your game!!!!!

@EA_David when will the next patch be? Please respond.
- 5 years ago
@EA_David please respond. When will this issue be fixed because this invalid token problem is persisting for over 2 months now. I have lost money because I was unable to complete the season 6 battlepass. Either give me my 950 apex coins back or give me a refund for the money I've spent on the 1000 apex coins

Hello Everyone!!
I found a permanent fix that works for me and it’s not vpn related at all, for you to understand this you must understand the cause of the problem, which is, the issue is from your isp not from Respawn, it’s hard to admit but here’s a clear explanation; If your isp offers static ip address to you then you won’t get invalid token, but if it’s dynamic and keeps changing from time to time then apex servers will reject it, i said this earlier and i know we’ve all been playing for sometime before the aftermarket update when it started, that was when respawn restricted isp with dynamic ip address to reduce the DDOS hackers, so there are two solutions for this and i believe it will work for everyone;
1 : call your isp and ask for a static ip address assigned to you. Easy.
OR2 : You need a mobile phone (might still work for mifi or router)
and you need to do exactly this ;
Assume we were in years back when sims and phones come with no internet settings and you have to configure it yourself , let’s do it.
browse how to configure internet for your sim, it will show you the settings to put and a proxy and port code too. Everything should match your current internet settings except their is not proxy or port then username and password.
then go to settings> mobile network > Access point names (APNs) then edit it as if it had no internet earlier, for example this was mine;
Account Name: MTN WAP
IP address (Proxy): 10.199.212.2Port: 9201
Username: web
Password: web
Access point name (APN): web.gprs.mtnnigeria.net
normally your proxy, port, username and password will be blank on your settings now, but when you browse for your Isp configuration settings you will see the proxy and port for your particular sim network, then put it there, username should be “web” and also password should be “web” but if your ISP has a different one then put the one provided.. This worked for me, 25 games in a row with no error!!
i found this fix and respawn or EA shouldn’t take the credits, they turned their backs on us instead of telling us atleast that our ISP wasn’t accepted anymore!! Give XP if it worked for you!! You can connect with me on Apex for some games too, my PSN : iMurk_Ben

- 5 years ago@Sixty9_jawadi2 No point in going through so much. If it is coming in the future patch it is coming in the future patch.
- 5 years ago@badasspsycho100 No its not coz problems are usually patched within 10 days so goodluck its been put under investigation for a whole month
- C45375 years agoSeasoned Scout@Sixty9_jawadi2 Or you could just change your APN to unrestricted. No need for all the other unnecessary proxy server bs

I'm not defending apex/EA for what's happening right now but the post you have linked is about some thing else.
it's about people being pissed at money grabbing with apex skin bundles not this * and hes saying that the ones who are quite arnt getting paid to talk to us and he isnt either even tho he still is if you read the article he seems to be down to earth and a good guy but isnt going to say some thing stupid that could lose him his job like ye these skin bundles are expensive and a scam in stead he said they are the price they are since we are getting enough people Are paying this much money to be able to do it and if people didnt they would be cheaper.
Once again I'm on your side I'm getting this * too.
TLDR the link isnt related to this thread and the dev dude seems cool.

The fact everybody just gave up on this is sad. And it just shows EA is not doing anything for the problem. EA has just lost a community of players but they are to busy trying to make money to even notice. If your still sitting with the problem just do what I did. Give up on Apex and play another game.... No point in trying to play. It's still gonna be awhile before they fix this issue.
- 5 years ago@badasspsycho100 Dude, i feel your pain,
seriously. They not going to admit to any wrong doing on their part so best to move on if you have no other options. Drop me a friend request or send me an email to [edit: email address removed] and ill try and help you. Managed to help a few guys with this issue.
Forget about @david and the rest of the gang....you will have better luck talking to a rock!! - 4 years ago
Yea, like seriously dude. It's still not fixed for me, and I lag out of 9/10 games when I'm just trying to complete challenges. I was also trying to play arenas today and got through 10 seconds of my game when it lagged me out and gave me a 6 minute ban for being AFK or some *. Like ficking please can these guys fix their goddamn servers. I've literally played * ps3 games with servers x10 better than these * excuses for servers.
- 4 years ago@Penguino-Spedo I feel hopeless on this situation. I've changed 4 isp's, did portforwarding, changed my dns, re routed to shortest hops, re installed the game, made a test account and still got the error over their, changed my region on EA accounts, i am using ethernet to play.... I've done everything from my side to fix this but the issue still remained the same 🤦
