    If you are having problems with PB, please post the exact error message you are experiencing and we will try to help you out. If you dont get a message in the UI, please do it by battlelog: http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/servers/ and that should provide you with a clear message.

    Also, it could be wise to open up a new thread yourself rather then use an old one but that is your choice I guess.

    I got it to work 2 weeks ago. But last night after several hours I gave up. I did do a battlelog test, I got this"PunkBuster permanent ban issued on this Game Server for player 'Vancer2' ... GLOBAL PunkBuster GUID BAN 6f3f814c"

    I dont know what this means.

    That specific error message means that you have been banned by PunkBuster. In this case you will no longer be able to play on PB protected servers. Why it could have happened I dont know but the usual case is that you used some sort of cheat and PB caught you and banned you. If you did use a cheat at any point, well this is then working as intended.

    If you dident or you what to appeal the ban, please see this page here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/battlefield/punkbuster-bans-and-violations .

    Also, see this page here if you have been banned in other places as well: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/account/information-about-banned-or-suspended-accounts .

    EDIT: I split this thread and its comments from the original thread as that one was old and it was also solved. Continue in this thread with this problem etc.

    I opened a ticket explaining what has happened. How long does it take for them to reply? Do I get reply notices by email?

    You will need to wait till they reply basically. It should be soon at least so just keep an eye on your ticket and you should be getting an update soon. We cant from here keep track of how this goes so this will be completely between you and them reply wise.
