Submit an Appeal option is bugged there is no Email us Option anymore.

Hi.

So my EA was stolen and banned. I verified ownership and got my account back. I was informed by the EA live agent that i need to submit an Appeal by going on 

https://help.ea.com/en/customer-care/
Select option Submit an Appeal then Game Apex Legends then Platform EA. After this an option will appear which will say Email Us. Now the issue is there is only one option in that page and that is go to Penalty history.

On penalty history the EA is showing i have 0 Bans. When i go in game there is a ban. The email us option is disabled so i cant submit an appeal. When i go live chat they get flabbergasted when you mention something that they are not trained to do for example telling them the link you gave doesn't have the email us option when you tell them this they instantly close live chat and just leave.

 

I have asked in discord server where 10 friends tried the same thing and all 10 of my friends who tried the Submit an Appeal option said there is no Email us option appearing for them as well.

 

  • Hey poguoss​

    If you're not seeing the ban in your penalty history or the email option after submitting that web form, please check your connected accounts and order history to confirm you're on the correct account. You'll only have the option to appeal if you're signed in to the account that has an active account action.

    Once you've signed in to the correct account, if you're still not seeing anything in the Penalty History tool and the email option is missing, please reach out to live support and ask them to help you create a case. 

    Let us know how it goes, thanks!

    Hey th3lastratbender​

    Sorry to hear that there's been difficulty appealing that ban. Unfortunately, the only way to have your appeal reviewed is to follow our appeal steps or to connect with live support and see if they can create an appeal on your behalf. There's also a possibility that your previous appeal is still under review and is preventing you from creating another. 

    Ultimately, I'm afraid we aren't able to provide any alternative routes besides the ones an advisor has already shared with you.

    same with me there is ban on my EA account i recovered my account from hacker who had changed the email 1 year ago. The live chat agent asked me to verify ownership reverted the account back to my Original email and told me there is ban on my account. I went to penalty history and it say the ban is there but there is no submit appeal option when i click the ban it says case closed. I created 10 live chat tickets already it never let me make a appeal. The hacker once made 1 appeal right after getting banned by abusing admins and saying waka waka rubbish and after that the submit appeal option is gone from the account. Can you please give me a number or email where i can reach terms of service team the account litterally has a Xbox linked to it with name Zentestingaccount please give me hope where can i reach Terms of service team as there is no Email us option in submit an appeal and live chat just copy paste same link saying click here and click submit appeal and email us even tho i gave them 100 screenshots that email us option is not there.

    Hi and thanks for your advice 

    However I'm also saying the exact same issue. Customer support can see there's an active ban on the acc, even tho it doesn't show in penalty history. I've tried live support many times and they all just push me from pillar to post, claiming they cannot create a ToS ticket on my behalf. Absolutely frustrating. Seriously considering legal proceedings now because I'm not just sitting back and losing my 1500 bucks worth of skins heirlooms and 750hrs over the 7 hrs Ive played since this game opened! So much for trying to support a new game, only to be treated like this......sad sad sad times

    Hey FreshWantToGoLan​

    Sorry to hear that live support wasn't able to help that time. While it's true that emailing Terms of Service is the next best route, since the usual options aren't available when your Penalty History page is empty, live support should be able to help you create a case. While this isn't ideal, I'm afraid you'll need to contact live support again for assistance.

    i am having similar issue. I am on correct account. I contacted live support they said they cant help me because the only way to contact Terms of service team is through the Email us option (which is disabled) and through Penalty history( My penalty history says i am not banned). Please fix the webform and bring back email us opt

  • I'm experiencing the same contact issue. My account has been incorrectly banned after false reports by ragers. The customer service team on live chat can be very rude, they just copy and paste the same responses and immediately close the chats! And I know my appeals are not being looked at correctly because I've never cheated in my life! This is a sad situation when legit players of 7 years are getting banned, 3 heirlooms, 750hrs and thousand plus dollars down the drain....
