Permanently Banned for "Gameplay Enhancement" – Appeal Still Pending

Question

Hello everyone,I'm posting this to ask for some advice and hopefully get some attention regarding my permanent ban in Apex Legends. My account was permanently banned on October 16, 2026, for alleged "gameplay enhancement." However, I have never used any cheats, hacks, scripts, or third-party software to gain an unfair advantage.I've already submitted an appeal to EA Support (Case #256905361), but I'm still waiting for a proper review and clarification regarding the reason for this ban. I would really appreciate it if EA could manually review my account and provide more specific information about the violation.Has anyone experienced a similar situation or successfully appealed a permanent ban?Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Thank you.

Hello I am in the same situation as you are, my first appeal got automated from a bot..but on my second appeal it was changed to "waiting for studio"&nbsp;

I have been doing some research and found that some applications can interfere with the new anti cheat, I am not sure how true that is.

For me I want to believe having throttlestop and Msi afterburner was the cause for mine and I heard there are many other applications that can cause false flags, but I don't know how true that is either!

Here is my case as well, you are not alone and do not give up bro!
