My friend got banned for his real name
My friends ACTUAL name is Benjamin Dover. It's kind of a meme cause peiple call him "Bend over" but his name in the game was fully Benjamin Dover and he STILL got PERMA banned. Wild how your terms of...

Same thing happened to me. I got banned for using my name, Gabriel Itches (Gabe Itches for short). I understand the irony in my name... But there's nothing I can do when it's my birth name.
I kept using it and EA perma-banned my account.
I've been a loyal customer for 8+ years and this is how they treat someone who was bullied all their childhood for their name. Unreal.

That's not something a permanent ban would be issued for. Not for a first offense. You would need to have a history of being actioned for offensive names before your account is actioned with a permanent ban.Have your friend send me a private message and I'll get this looked in to.
I used the same name multiple times and kept getting banned. After like 5 times of using MY OWN NAME, that's when I got the permanent ban.
Stop lying to us. I just got banned for the same *. My name was in no way offensive. Your just banning anyone and everyone who gets reported by but hurt people. I read the agreement. I didnt break it.
I'm not sure who oversees this stuff, but what you've said here is definitely not true. I have an alt account that I made a funny sexual innuendo name on. I received a "warning" email the first night I played the game. It said I basically got a free pass to change my name to something else without penalty. I woke up the next morning and before I even had a chance to change my name, I received another email saying I had been issued a PERMANENT EA BAN ACROSS ALL EA GAMES for my name being exactly what it was when I originally received the warning.
Maybe you "are not supposed to" be handing out near-instant perma-bans to people for having a name like Don Keedic or Peter Gazinya, but it DEFINITELY is happening. Oh yeah, and even if you receive a temporary (i.e. 3 day) suspension in NHL 24, your game will be rendered useless as you will continuously "crash" when trying to enter WOC after your suspension has been rightfully served. Yet another serious problem with NHL 24 that I have yet to see any of you with "EA" in your name address.
- @Xboxliveid90 It's actually crazy they are losing millions because of these abusive system. I'm surprised they don't care since all the higher ups look at is the money. No wonder 2k 10x the players of any EA sports game
