Forum Discussion
@ElliotLH We aren't looking for in-depth info HERE, we are just looking to be able to obtain the in-depth info regarding our individual bans via email or in our account info, whatever. I think many of us are just hoping that this massive thread is presented to someone who can take a look once and for all at what the heck is going on here, we all understand that in-depth info can't be provided in this thread due to privacy issues, we just want justice for our accounts. I know i'm not a cheater, and even if only half the ppl here are truthful, I think myself and others deserve a little attention to get this solved today. I have noticed that some people are claiming they just disputed their ban a day ago and got a response within 24 hours, myself and others are still waiting days/weeks for a response to the dispute. Something strange is going on, because we are all told our cases are handled in order and the amount of time it will take depends on how many cases..
Hi All,
I have been also banned shortly after I started playing BF2042. In fact, you can probably find my post somewhere at the beginning of this thread.
To cut the long story short, one morning I woke up to find an email from EA stating that my account has been compromised and that I have to change my password. Shortly after another email informed me about my "hacking" and that my account has been perm banned. I purchased the ultimate edition of the game for £100 which basically went down the drain thanks to the flawed anti-cheat system EA is using.
Show me a cheater who is buying the most expensive version of the game knowing full well that he can be banned for cheating?!?! I mean seriously? If I was intent on cheating in-game I would get myself a basic version of the game and grind everything within a week or two, what would be the point of spending £70 extra for an ultimate edition ffs?!! The worst thing is that I pre-order the freaking game to support the developers not knowing what will be the state of the game when it will be finally released only to get a perm ban probably after spending less than 20 hours playing it.
I tried to appeal but had no luck, at first I was really pissed off as I didn't cheat but now that some time passed and anger is no longer there, I decided to simply boycott any EA games. I won't be spending another penny on a sub-standard product and with a possibility of a false positive ban and no right to appeal or the possibility of a discussion with a real person to overturn the ban.
I suggest to all ppl here who are genuinely victims of this flawed anti-cheat software to do exactly the same, let's hit EA where it hurts which is in their pockets!!!!!
