Re: I was just banned in BF6

I am experiencing the EXACT same issue.

On EA go to your account page and look around for "Download account info" or something. Do that, then when its ready download it and open it up, there will be expandable fields, I had one that said I was banned for "Account_abuse" which makes absolutely no sense. I only play on one PC, don't cheat, and do not interact with other players...I am extremely disappointed with whatever anticheat they are using, this is wild. I had zero issues during Beta.

I will do that I only have the game on PC, so if it is for that, then I don't know what is going on. I just want to keep playing this game.

Yeah, for PC, its a zip download. Over at https://myaccount.ea.com/am/ui/security-privacy near the bottom. You'll have to tell it to download, then wait for it to alert you that it's ready for you to download (I got an email telling me to come back, only took a couple minutes). Then there will be another download info button to actually download it.

it says for competitive advantage, I don't even know what that means. I don't use any hacks or have any kind of hacks. I have mods for other games downloaded on my computer, but nothing that would give me any advantage in BF6. I don't understand. Is it because I was using a controller, does that give aim assist or something? or did I get banned because I was doing too good? All I was doing was playing campaign and a couple of hours of multiplayer, and I was mainly running around as a medic picking people up. I had no Issues in the BETA so I don't see how I could have been banned. I have not downloaded anything new since the BETA, so I don't understand at all.

Hey bro, did you get it sorted?

No not at all not sure what to do at this point I have submitted appeals but nobody has responded

I’ve had this happen to me tonight. Played the game day one and then earlier today just fine, but then when I tried to get on tonight it just refused. I don’t understand what on my system could be flagged as “competitive advantage”. Hopefully support is quick because this is ridiculous.

Same with me. Keep us updated.

Same thing happened to me. Don't know what software or files are flagged as "Competitive advantage" cuz they will never tell you. But not for the Battlefield 6 cheating for sure. This ban was absolutely nonsense, EA loses its credibility by doing so.

Same thing happened to me.

Same things happened to me this morning! I've never cheated or similia in my life. 
I downloaded the log and tell me the "competitive advantage" issue.

It's ridicolous!

Please let me know if you solve somehow

same exact shi is happening to me... after seeing this thread i guess im just gonna refund this garbage

I heard some people got banned because of idle xp farm over night.

Publishers never tell why exactly.

Same here. There's not even a option to submit an appeal. I CANNOT contact an EA ADVISOR!!! There's no option!!!!

i submitted it as an account compromise and was able to talk to someone, and they said they will look into it, so I will let you know if it actually fixes the issue. There is no other way to get into a live chat, which is terrible. just had to wait a while for the advisor to connect

Just had the same thing happen to me. Says I been suspended for 3 days but doesn't appear on my punishment history. I was playing all night just fine, updated my graphics drivers then quit to go pickup my girlfriend from work, got home and boom it says I'm suspended. 

Love how EA's anticheat really works. All the cheaters are crying on cheating discords about how they are being banned for simply injecting cheats and not even playing yet. Good riddance cheaters. Go play COD. Activision doesn't care about cheaters.

Bro, I get it — everyone hates cheaters. But this time it’s clearly a whole wave of false bans. Usually, when I heard about mistaken bans, it was always someone else’s story — but now it turns out it can happen to anyone.

All you cheaters are crying on the cheater discords about how EA's anticheat system got you all. You're all here begging to be unbanned as a last resort. My advice: buy BF6 again and don't cheat next time. But you need a new PC as well since you're all HWID banned and your spoofers are even easier to detect than your cheats (thanks to TPM 2.0). Good riddance cheaters!

I really hope that your  banned just as unfairly, and that you’ll find yourself in our place.The last thing I’ll say to you is this: I don’t understand how, in the 21st century, someone can trust any system so completely and not realize that mistakes happen constantly and on a massive scale — in all areas, including games.

Except most of us didn't cheat. The sanction isn't even real there is nothing in our penalty history, it's just a technical bug deactivating our account. There is no one who hate cheaters more than me. I don't even need a cheat to kill everyone. And still I got banned after 2.5hours in the loading screen after my connection to the server crashed.

 my connection to the server crashed as well and i had to close the game and after booting the game back up i was banned for 72 hour and was confused  

72 hours is lucky I'm permanently ban for some reason

Same happened to me on my account. Played 5 hours release day woke up the next morning to a ban. No in game voip, chat etc... Just a casual player not exploiting or anything. I don't understand.
