Re: Account wrongfully banned

@EA_Aljo Sorry you are the one to hear all of us being so angry. But it’s just upsetting that we all know not much is happening to fix this. On top of being falsely blamed for “coin distributed(sending) the email also reads: “YOUR ACCOUNT WILL PERMANENTLY NOT BE ABLE TO ACCESS THE AUCTION HOUSE OR TRADE BLOCK AND WE’VE REMOVED ALL COINS FROM YOUR ACCOUNT.” Which is also false because I’m locked out of the ENTIRE game except for OFFLINE franchise. My friends and I have been locked out of our online franchise because I’m the commissioner of it. I’m also unable to continue to play The Yard with my friends because I was accused of doing something in MUT that I didn’t do.

    @phillipcape05 It locks up on the loading screen I think when it says showtime or something but if you wait a minute or so and keep clicking through it eventually takes you to the main screen but offline franchise is the only available tile.
  • @Jimmyy2623 Appreciate you trying to help, i just tried again for about 5 minutes hammering the X button to see if it did anything , but it gets stuck on the D in Huddle on the load up screen!!! More help than i got from anyone at EA in the past week!!

    @phillipcape05 I assume you are PlayStation since you said “x” I’m on Xbox and I don’t remember exactly what I did to get to the main screen but I do remember it popping up the coin distribution screen for me then taking me to the main menu with only offline franchise available which again is still straight BS because even if I did violate their TOS it says I’m only banned from the auction house and my coins are wiped.

    How are you affiliated with EA and claim ignorance on such a major issue?

    @Cryptopowell90 because we are a very small percent of the community that is having this issue. It's not major in terms of the amount of people having this issue. Not to mention it doesn't help that I'm sure we have people claiming that they did nothing wrong that actually did do something among us also making this a larger issue.

    This has been going on a full week with NO response at all. I'm sure not 100% of the people are innocent but I'd bet its close

    @Cryptopowell90 no doubt, but again I've said it before I don't think any of us will get our access back. I've googled around and seen that there were small cases of this every year of Madden and I never seen anyone claiming they ever regain access.

    If not, I'll be disputing the charges with EA first, then to Microsoft, and finally to PlayStation where I purchased the game. Then obviously my CC company. It's outrageous

  • @Jimmyy2623 i have had 1 person reach out to me to tell me they have been unbanned on my channel ! Out of like 100 or more that have responded between the 2 videos it might even be 150+ that have responded i havent added them up.

    I hope so. My son just watched zirksee bragging about his pulls and he just is so upset.

    EASports, I can't believe you DID THIS to my 7 year old son! He doesn't deserve a permanent BAN!

  • Was also banned earlier this week. Have a case open but have heard nothing. Have paid over $1k buying points to purchase packs Since August 21, 2020! In the past two weeks trying to pull LTDs bought out all the packs I could, sold over 200 gold cards on the auction, then finally broke down and purchased the Denzel Ward LTD off the block when it dropped to 800k coins.....come back to the game later and my account is suspended permanently for coin distribution! Have yet to receive an email from EA with further information as the suspension menu claimed I would. Have only received one email from the EA team acknowledging my case is pending after I initially opened it. On my EA access page the case has been updated twice but still no email or contact back from EA. Long time Madden player from years past but I took about an 8 year break, recently came back to it and I've only played Madden MUT since April of this year. Never done anything other than use the auction block to buy and sell cards for or from my squad. Never received any kind of warning....just slapped with a permanent suspension with no explanation as to why! Not a very professional way of doing business or treating customers who pay way too much for a hobby they enjoy! Communication is KEY....and there is none!!!

    I’m just curious how it takes longer than a week to figure out if someone cheated, took part in “coin distribution,” etc. It really shouldn’t be that difficult.

    My account gets banned when my all time fav raider drops nnamdi!!!! This is wack. Fix this ea

  • I was banned about 10 days ago. The reason they used was coin distribution. In reality I was just not spending money on their game. I made over a million in coins flipping cards on the app all day. Just received an email that after further review they are giving me access to my account back. Just got on and saw the value in my binder full cards has plummeted. Literally lost $100,000s in coins. Not to mention the 10 days I lost I could have made a couple more million. This is not acceptable. I want compensation. We all need to demand it or get our money for the game back

    Good day,

    I read that you have been un-banned, could you post the email that you were sent? I would like to see what EA said. Thanks
