Re: What to do if your Apex Legends account got banned or suspended

I have now had two account banned within the span of a week for gameplay enhancement and I don't understand why. One account is what i use to use when i had a pc 5-10 years back. Neither has any penalty history outside of the ones i got this week after the latest update. I don't use any third party software to enhance gameplay and the only possible third party software that could be the cause of this is signal rgb which i use to  manage my well RGB. In the PC I Built. I have been playing on this PC since April with no issues. I use mouse and keyboard. On my main account which is at level 300+ i reached plat which isn't a high rank but all that progress was wiped thanks to the ban and they don't give an actual explanation as to what exactly i did. I don't use a controller i use mouse and keyboard and spend time the the practice range trying to improve. After that account was banned I managed to sign into and link my PlayStation account to a different steam account. Everything was going well. Then i reached Bronze 1 just an hour ago. Went to queue up for another match and got banned again same reason gameplay enhancement. I fail to understand how i enhanced my gameplay since when in the practice range my accuracy hovers around 20%-50% depending on which weapon i use. Is anyone able to explain why i got banned when I'm not hacking. I'm learning to tap strafe now but even that I'm not all too good at so what possible reason is there.

    Hey BrandonW1423​​, 

    Thanks for taking the time to describe the situation.

    If you feel that an action was placed on your account incorrectly, please follow these steps to create an appeal so our Terms of Service team can take another look. They'll have the right tools and records to review this for you.

    Unfortunately, we don't have any information on why the accounts were flagged for gameplay enhancement, nor is that information disclosed to prevent misuse by others. If you've been using the same device, it might be worth including those hardware or software details in your appeal to provide more context and support your innocence.

    Once you create that appeal, please keep an eye on your case history page and the ToS team will reach out via email once that review is complete. Thanks!
