Wrongful Ban / EA Accountability
I'm on Xbox One & last night I received a message last night that I have been permanently banned for "Coin Distribution." The message stated that I would receive an email providing further details. ...

Why don’t you tubers get banned??? They literally have a discount code so you Can use it on coin sites.
@Daviid147 They Must Have Ea's permission... Doing it Live on Twitch Off the Madden 21 Ea channel..( recommend watch ) not Hard to miss every Saturday and Tuesday Morning... your not special
@peeze31So if they were to hypothetically have permission to promote coin selling then that would be setting up their own user base to suffer suspensions/bans. Hmmm when you put it that way it sounds like the company would be operating outside of the scope of their own TOS’s... which by definition would be committing an fact of Fraud... which is both Criminally and civilly illegal. How strange lol
- @peeze31 It is even in their terms of service see the following from EA TOS:
Sell, buy, trade or otherwise transfer or offer to transfer your EA Account, any personal access to EA Services, or any EA Content associated with your EA Account, including EA Virtual Currency and other Entitlements, either within an EA Service or on a third-party website, or in connection with any out-of-game transaction,
(right here)
unless expressly authorized by EA.- @BigJuego You are 100% correct but they’ve also come out on record saying they do not and will not give that authorization. It was a big thing last year. So while they do have the ability to do it I’m pretty sure that provision is to simply cover them when it comes to their giveaways since that falls under that scope as well
- @agm1989 How can EA deny that they do not sell coins when they allow these YouTubers to break their TOS everyday that they then turn around and ban the casual player for. How do these people on YouTube get to operate not get banned for doing so. The fact of the matter is EA is running these sites that are being promoted that is why TOS is not enforced in them.
