Re: temporary ban lasting longer than a week

It's possible that the ToS team decided to change the duration of your ban, it's also possible that your temporary ban has become a permanent ban.

From what they're saying:

"After thoroughly investigating your account and concern, we found that your account was actioned correctly and will not remove this sanction from your account."

Since they said that they wouldn't be removing the ban, it would be an indication of a permanent ban.

Some games typically ban players automatically for a short time period to prevent them from playing and so the team can take their time to investigate.

It's possible in this case that support reviewed your account after this temporary ban and concluded that the proper action to take is a permaban.

These actions are typically final, so a dispute will not revert their decision.

No worries @Refreshs416, sorry using bold might've made it sound a bit aggressive lol.
Just contact EA directly and ask how long your ban will stay, that's pretty much the only way of checking :P
