Transfer Market Ban in FC 26 - Seeking advice on console/account restrictions

I have received the dreaded email notifying me that my Transfer Market access has been blocked for the remainder of UT in FC 26. I am not aware of having breached any rules; I haven't engaged in coin shifting, nor do I play in a "meta" way. I’ve been playing for many years and have always traded, albeit without much ambition. For me, trading is a fundamental part of the experience; I usually make long-term investments, buying at discard price and waiting for cards to rise. However, I believe what triggered the ban was trading with celebration items. As there were very few on the market and they were selling near the top of their price range, it must have tripped the system’s alarms.

I am struck by the lack of information and the opacity surrounding the market. If they set the price ranges for the cards themselves, I don’t understand why they penalise you for selling a card within those limits. They send a generic email that explains nothing, which I find to be a serious lack of commitment to the customer, especially considering the significant amount we pay every year to access the game. Although I have lodged an appeal, I am currently awaiting a resolution with very little hope of the penalty being overturned.

Because of this, I would like to gather some information: could anyone tell me if I were to create a new account on the same console and start from scratch, would I be able to regain access to the Transfer Market?. I’d like to know if there is any viable way to get the market opened again, even with limited transactions, or if, on the contrary, the ban permanently affects the console or the ID. I would appreciate any information you can provide.

    Hi there. Unfortunately, we can't help with account sanctions over the EA Forums. Please see the article here for more information and instructions for disputing the ban. Thank you.
