Re: How to get help with Apex Legends account bans and suspensions

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I completely understand that forum superusers and volunteers can't manage ban appeals directly.

The main issue is that I’ve already gone through the official EA TOS appeal process three times, and they just sent automated rejections and have now stopped responding altogether. The account compromise itself was already verified and resolved by official EA Support, but the resulting ban was never cleared.

I am hoping an official EA Community Manager or Admin might see this thread and help escalate the case internally to the TOS team, as I am currently stuck in a complete dead end through the standard ticket portal.

If the ban is still active on your account, then you would need to appeal the ban with the EA TOS Team again as your platform account(s) cannot be unlinked until the ban is lifted.

The Community Managers are not able to review, change, or remove your ban as they are not apart of the EA TOS Team, and in terms of the "right direction", appealing the ban with the EA TOS Team is the direction to go in.

All the steps and information can be found in the first post above:

If you are no longer able to appeal the ban, that usually means that the ban will be upheld. 

Note: I do not work for EA or for Respawn, I am a volunteer.

Yo that’s crazy same thing here, I recently bought a pc normally a console player, I just got BF6 on it yesterday through steam, downloaded the game it asked me to sign into to EA so I did, it said steam already linked, I was confused so I head over to website login and see my Xbox psn linked and then boom there was a random 6-7 lettered steam account linked I tried to unlink it, it didn’t let me. I contact support the live chat, the agent looked into it told me I can’t unlink any accounts because of apex legend ban, I explained to him I never even played the game and even that at most hate that stupid cartoony game, he told me make an appeal request through penalty, so I did it appeared right there, case opened explained everything to them, they overturned the ban and suggested it was account phishing not a EA data breach… today after reading the email saying they overturned it, I tried to unlink that random steam account again today, it didn’t let me I jump back on live support chat, they tell me my account is still sanctioned for a ban, keep giving me the **bleep** link for penalty, now this time around it doesn’t show the ban on the website so live chat suggests to use web form, even web form now when I select and explain everything it only says submit, and doesn’t generate a case id or email us option… it’s pathetic that support can’t even help me.
