Cheaters reporting in iPhone

Is it really easy to report cheaters in SimCity Builder? How can I report such a player or club name?

Example : [Screenshot removed by the moderator, let's not call out other players directly on the boards. EA_Claus]

    Hello 567888765432​,

    You have repeatedly posted about finding cheaters in the game, and we understand that it's disrupting and frustrating.

    However, please refrain from opening a new thread about this same topic. I moved your recent messages together here.

    To report a player, refer to the in-game options or the external web form here. Let us know if you run into any problems using these methods.

    For privacy reasons, we can’t tell you about our investigations or what actions we take on another player’s account. Our guides on how to report cheating explain this, and we appreciate your understanding.  

    We hope you will continue to report these encounters through the appropriate channels, so that our dedicated teams can investigate and continue taking action within our policies.

    Absolutely not the case.

    One does not need to engage in War during Contest of Mayors.

    There are assignments that are only accomplished by participating in War, but the game easily allows a player to work around those.  Many in the club I am a member of are Megalopolis League Players and none of us engage in Wars.

    Yes, there are several clubs that do just fine, accumulating Legendary Chests with engaging in War.

    If cheaters drive you nuts in War, why not join a Club that does not fight them and avoid the angst?  

    Many are out there.

    Good Luck

    No one needs to play war no matter what league your in, it’s only a choice to do so.

    Im in mega league and I play in a No War Club

    Do you run into an error when submitting a report using the in-game options? 

    I could also find this form to report another player for cheating. The in-game option is usually better, but the form includes a selection for SimCity BuildIt.

    We hope you'll manage to fill out a report soon and help us fight the cheaters you encountered!

    Seriously why the hell do you even play WAR? Get out of the club find one that doesnt doesn’t do WAR and just build your city as per the description, “SimCity Buildit” Simple!

    It is a total waste of time reporting cheaters to EA. They do nothing. Just had another request by a hacker to join our club. A blatant hacker advertising scripts for cheating on SimCity. He has all level 20 war attacks but city level 52. Even the city name has hacking in it. I have reported it, along with others but it still exists. This whole game is full of cheats and after 10 years playing now finding it frustrating and am seriously considering leaving.

    I reported players weeks ago. Till this day still get no replies about the action they take to that player lol

  • Fighting wars in this game is completely pointless, because in almost every other club there’s at least one cheater, if not more. SimCity BuildIt would probably set a world record for the number of cheaters. And what does EA do? They make reporting cheaters as difficult as possible (at least on iPhones), respond very rarely, and if they don’t like your post, they remove it under the claim that it violates the forum or game rules.
