Banned since Nov, 24th

I'm making this post to bring attention to my case and to vent that I've been banned since November 24th, 2025. My banning was presumably from having ReWASD installed on my PC and was flagged as being a cheating software.


I'm not here to debate that, it is what it is. At the time I was unaware of people using it to gain an unfair advantage in other online games. I had purchased it for completely different reasons and I was not using ReWASD for BF6. I know I can't prove it but I want to state my case.

I never used it for BF6, nor did I even have a profile made for it. I only used it for remapping older games or for extra functions Modded into my single player games like Skyrim or Witcher 3. BF6 won't even launch with it. When the ReWASD team was notified of this they instructed their community to put ReWASD in "Compatibility Mode", which after doing research I can only assume it tries to mask itself from the game, which I agree is shady but that's not disclosed to their customers. This ultimately led to hundreds if not thousands of user's being banned on that day. I will provide a screenshot of this. 

I'm not disputing that all of us are innocent, I'm sure there were many legitimate cheaters among us that were using the program to get controller aim assist on a mouse, probably the most well known method of using it to cheat. But I also want to point out that there were many people who were unknowingly being instructed to bypass anti-cheat systems. 

To wrap this up, since being banned I have submitted an appeal, got auto denied and resubmitted the appeal asking for a manual review. That was over 2 months ago and have only received one reply asking for my patience while it's being investigated. I purchased the game twice for me and my son to play together and I got us both Battle Passes. I think after spinding over $150 on this game and only playing it for a few weeks before being banned for nearly 2 months, I've been more than reasonably patient.

If a member of EA or Dice sees this post please look into this for me. Case  #230508193

  • Contact EADee at ea dot com. My ban got overturned. EA is now under investigation in Australia having breached a number of consumer laws, especially BANNING users for having an application installed that they paid for and have been using for YEARS no issues. In particular REWASD, its 1 thing EA having an issue with REWASD for the latest games but the ACCC isn't going to accept games that game before this that REWASD wasn't an issue with. EA are just being immature selfish ***** here, alienating players be that ones they have banned or other players who now can't play with their mates, COD, The Finals and others learned this issue the hard way and rectified it working with REWASD, for those titles REWASD simply blocks any potentially offending features, the fact EA hasn't gone down the same path well it speaks volumes, it fits right in line with their polished **bleep** title that those whom bought on EA couldn't even play and many had to get refunds on launch and buy from elsewhere just to play (Steam for example). EA titles don't interest me until this is  resolved, i use REWASD to play a load of older titles that didn't support controller and i am not about to uninstall it just to appease EA. This is going to increase piracy as well, who at EA thought it was a good idea to block people from the single player campaign just because REWASD or some other apps may be installed on their systems? EA is EMBARRASING. I suspect this will change under Saudi ownership!
