How Do I "Call EA Help"

I've been trying to figure out how to get unbanned after a hacker used my account to cheat, but every attempt I've made has failed. I've tried going through the support for a banned account as well as a hacked account. Every time I submit a request for the hacked account, which was recommended by an EA representative, nothing actually happens. There were two options, get a call, which I did and have yet to receive a call after over a week. Also, I attempted the get connected to a live chat, and the emails mention I should be contacted soon, yet again nothing happens. Is there something I'm missing here? When I go to the specific case, it pulls up what you see in the attachment, but does not provide any way of actually calling EA help... What can I do? I'm really getting irritated at this entire process, please help.

  • Hi @oKevinMo  

    This is not something live chat can fix, so email and call should really be the only options to create a case.

    It might also depend on the time of day or region and a few other things that determine what contact options are available.

    You're best contacting the ToS team for your banned account using the following process:

    To contact the ToS Team use the following link: https://help.ea.com/en/contact-us/

    Select Origin>Choose Platform>Manage Account >Banned or Suspended account and then select an available contact option

    I did just test it and the process above should give you at least an email option and once complete will create a case for investigation, so be sure to provide as much info about the hack etc as possible.

    If you're still having trouble with the above process let us know.

    Hey @oKevinMo you will need to speak to our Terms of Service team in relation to any ban.

    The process to contact our ToS team can be found here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/account/information-about-banned-or-suspended-accounts/

    1. Click Contact us at the top of any page on EA Help.
    2. Select the game that your account was banned or suspended from. If it’s on your whole EA Account, choose Origin.
    3. Choose your platform.
    4. Select Manage my account, then Banned or suspended account.
    5. Fill out any other details below.
      • For example, if you picked Origin, it might ask you if you are accessing the game through an Origin Access membership.
    6. Click Select contact option.
    7. Sign in to your account that has the ban or suspension, if you aren’t already.

    Darko
