Recover old banned account

My account was banned several years ago for supposed repeated rule violations. I never received an explanation and never knowingly broke any of the rules. I tried at the time to appeal the decision but gave up with the slow appeal process. I am looking to start playing again and cannot access the game at all. The game launches and automatically tells me my account is banned. I get no options to log in with a different acocunt. I would like to either have the ban lifted on my old account, reset my old account so I can still play, or be able to sign in with a new account

    This is the standard spiel.  It could have just been one violation.  However, as even one time would probably include several instances and rule breaks, they use it.

    No explanations were or are given.  If that's what you're looking for, you won't get it.

    If you appealed (i.e. filled in the 'Forms') that is all you can do.  We presume that all (first time) appeals are manually looked at, and it was decided that you were rightfully banned.  We can only assume that's how it is done from what is explained, but there's no reason to doubt it.

    It appears that the game is linking to your account that must be linked to your Google or Apple account.  For me, when I log in, my Android account comes up.  If I click on that, I can choose whether or not to use that account or another one (e.g. a new account).

    Edit:  I just tried to do this and it didn't work (certainly used to).  This is definitely a technical issue that you need help with and I don't know the answer.  Is it possible to delete your data via the 'Play Store'?  So for me the Google Play store has my tied SWGOH data.  Google it and see if that helps.
