      My EA account was permanently banned due to a violation labeled as "Inappropriate Content (General)," which I now understand was caused by a Steam-linked username that I used in Apex Legends. However, I was never properly notified of the specific reason. I assumed my previous short suspensions were due to in-game chat, not my username, and would have immediately corrected the issue had I been informed.Unfortunately, all suspension and ban notices were vague and only visible in-game. No emails were sent to my registered email, which is under my father's name. After my permanent ban, I submitted multiple cases to EA. They requested account verification, which I submitted. They then claimed it was insufficient, told me to open a new case, and when I did, with accurate, complete information, they declined the appeal with no communication or explanation.I have invested over ***** hours into Apex Legends and spent a significant amount of money on in-game content across Xbox and PC. Not including other EA games that I now can't play, such as ************ Football 25 and the other Madden games. The EA username itself was not in violation of any terms, only the Steam-linked name, which I had no ******************** would result in this level of punishment. EA never offered a warning, forced a name change, or made any effort to contact me through the email linked to my account, which seems extremely harsh and poorly communicated. I am requesting a full review of my case and the reinstatement of my account or a less permanent penalty. I am committed to following all community standards and would gladly correct any violations, as I have already changed my Steam username before the ban. I simply want a fair chance to continue using a platform I've supported for years.

      Complaint: 23275318

      I am rejecting this response because I am extremely dissatisfied with EA's response. I provided accurate and verifiable information about my account, including the email linked to it, yet they claim they cannot tell if its linked. I have already submitted multiple cases through their website with no resolution, they continue to deflect without properly investigating my case.

      I never requested the deletion of my account, yet my entire transaction history was erased, despite having spent significant money and time (over ***** hours in Apex Legends alone). EA has failed to provide any explanation or support and has denied me access to my own data. This raises serious concerns about data handling, transparency, and consumer rights.

      Additionally, when I requested a copy of my transaction history, which has suddenly disappeared from my account, the support representative told me it was outside their scope of practice and was unable to direct me to someone who could help me. This is unacceptable. As a consumer, I have a right to access my purchase data, and EA has both erased it and refused to provide it upon request. This only reinforces my concern that EA is not handling this situation lawfully or ethically.

      I am seeking full restoration of access to my transaction history and a proper review of my account and ban appeal by someone with the authority to act. I have attached to this email a copy of proof the email is linked to my account (through censored it can properly be made out) and a screenshot of the transactions history not being there. I already attached proof of money being spent on EA products in my last email, therefore this is careless data keeping on their end. I expect EA to take accountability and actually assist, not just direct me in circles.

      Complaint: 23275318

      I am rejecting this response because I am extremely dissatisfied with EAs response. *** submitted multiple support requests and provided accurate, verifiable account information, yet EA continues to claim they cant verify the account. Their support team has repeatedly redirected me in circles without offering a real resolution.
      I was permanently banned for Inappropriate Content, which I now believe was due to a username shown in-game from my linked Steam account, not my ********************** account itself, which never violated any guidelines. If I had received a proper warning or clarification, I would have changed the username immediately. My linked email is my fathers (either ***************** or *************************** and I did not have regular access to it, so I was unaware of any warnings that may have been sent.


      Furthermore, Ive spent hundreds of dollars and logged over ***** hours in EA games like Apex Legends and now, my transaction history has been wiped entirely from the EA website. I never requested an account deletion, yet my data is gone. When I contacted support to request a copy of my transaction history, the agent told me it was out of their scope of practice. EAs refusal to provide access to my own data is deeply concerning.


      I am requesting a full and fair review of my case, restoration of my transaction history, and access to my account details. I am willing to provide any verification necessary, but I will not continue to be brushed aside by automated replies and dismissals. EAs mishandling of this case raises serious concerns about their support practices, transparency, and data retention policies.

      Dear BBB Team,Hello,I write this appeal letter with a heavy heart and annoyance, and I beg you to review and unblock my game account. My EA account was blocked due to hackers' intrusion into my account, which caused me great pain and distress. EA games are not only my favorite games, but also an important way for me to keep in touch with friends and relax. Losing it, I feel that a part of my life has been deprived.The cause of the matter is this: my EA account was unfortunately hacked. I can clearly see that there are abnormal login records, and since then, there have been many activities on my account that I did not perform. After the hacker stole my account, he may have performed improper operations, resulting in the ban. I feel very upset and helpless about this result, because it is not my fault at all.I request EA to investigate the login records and game activities of my account. All activities during that period were not carried out by me, but by hackers. I can provide the necessary evidence and information to help you confirm my statement. For this reason, I have sought EA company for several complaints, but I am disappointed with the unprofessional and perfunctory behavior of EA in this matter, because they do not know how to treat their game users well. I want to make a serious complaint to ************************* a loyal EA player, I have invested a lot of time and money in EA's game platform. I have purchased many games and have always strictly abided by the rules and codes of conduct of the games. After get off work every day, I play EA games with my friends. This period of time is an important time for me to relax and relieve stress. Now because of this unexpected ban, I have lost all of this, which is a huge blow to me. Therefore, I want to use the help of BBB to protect my legitimate rights and interests in EA games. As an honest player, I urgently need your help to get my EA account unblocked as soon as possible.

      The account was stolen multiple times in a short period of time Hello, dear BBB customer service. I'm contacting you because my EA account has been seriously stolen and banned.Please give me a little time to explain the problem of my account:My account was stolen some time ago, and the verification method of my email and the bound steam was also changed. As a result, I didn't notice it until I tried to log in to my account and found that the password was wrong and I couldn't log in to my email. Only then did I realize that my account was lost. At that time, there was a problem with my account login. I checked my email and EA data and found that there were always other people logging into my account. And I'm sure these logins are not my operation. I'm not sure since when they started logging into my account.loginLog ***************************************************** The 2025-04-28 T05:44:09. 164 z SUCCEEDED loginLog Moscow-RU-****** *********** The 2025-04-28 T05:37:53. 419 z SUCCEEDED I think you should be able to easily check the changes in my account IP and login records. Please help me check the abnormal activities of my account during this period!It seems that it's because I logged in to my steam and EA on the announced computer. Although I logged out of my account, there seemed to be a virus on the computer stealing my account password. After my email and steam were stolen, my steam profile picture was changed, including my name and so on, which were changed to the names of some illegal websites. Then my EA was also stolen The most important point is that please help me explain to the team that I couldn't create a case on EAhelp. I successfully created one, then my account was unblocked, but it was stolen again. After that, no matter how I sent the case, there was no case number or reply. You can check attachment P4, and I provided proof of the suspicious account in Attachment P3

      My EA account was banned after EA charged me three times for a pack I bought. I tried to reach out to them to fix the charges and got no response. I went through ****** eventually and reported a problem with the two extra charges (or I hit request a refund, I dont remember) but I left the original charge because I did get the product. Then my account was banned.

      I am rejecting this response because writing EA does nothing. The one person I got in touch with told me Id need to contact the Terms of Service folks but did not follow-up with how to reach them. This whole process is beyond frustrating and there is no number to call and no person I can chat with. I dont understand why the chat option vanishes when an account gets banned, that doesnt make any sense.

      I am writing to formally raise a complaint regarding the suspension of my EA account, which I believe was done in error and without due ********** April, my EA account was permanently banned with the reason cited as COMPETITIVE_ADVANTAGE. This was communicated to me without any evidence, specifics, or contextual explanation. I have only ever played in solo co-op mode with bots, not in public lobbies or competitive multiplayer matches, and have never engaged in cheating, exploiting, or any form of misconduct.Following the ban, I submitted an appeal through EAs ToS team. However, each time, my case was closed without any explanation, transparency, or opportunity to understand or refute the accusation. I received only boilerplate responses and no supporting evidence of wrongdoing. This lack of communication, paired with the absence of clear policy violations, raises serious concerns about the fairness of EAs ban and appeal process.I have invested significant time and money into my EA account and expect fair treatment under EAs own Terms of Service. I am requesting:1- A detailed explanation of the violation I am alleged to have committed;2- Access to any evidence EA claims supports this ban; 3- A fair and transparent appeal process.

      Complaint: 23272105

      I am rejecting this response because: the Terms of Service team is not looking into these issues, the forums on their own website is being filled with people being banned for no reason.

      Sincerely,

      He banned all my battlefield games, and I also rushed money into them, and I also had most of my youth, and they were perfunctory to find them

      Complaint: 23271988

      I am rejecting this response because:I love that both Battlefield 1 and Battlefield 5 have been banned by you, so why don't you sanction the real cheaters instead of those of us who love the game? Last time Battlefield 5 was banned by you, I appealed, and it took me half a year to lift, this time I didn't play for a long time, I played for 1 hour, and you gave me a ban again, and the next day you gave me a ban, Battlefield was discounted, and that's how you guys? You said that you replied to me, please ask last time it took me half a year to lift, may I ask you to check it carefully? I love the Battlefield series, he has cost me a lot of time and money, do you think I need to break your agreement? May I ask?

      Sincerely,

      ??????,??:Where I broke your agreement, if I violated it, why would I go to appeal, you said to contact EA. I ask if your EA has read it carefully. Why don't you sanction real cheating instead of those of us who love these games, you told me to contact EA, how do you ea handle things? I don't even want to curse, your EA customer service or ******************** will handle things seriously. I will do this. Don't you see how perfunctory your team is

      Yesterday I upgraded my game to the **** 4 Deluxe Edition. Ever since updating, my game began to have issues. I spoke to four *****s at EA (which was very hard to find intially because you cannot chat with someone through the **** 4 section, I had to go through the **** 3 just to get an *****). The first ***** uninstalled the Deluxe Edition. Did not offer a refund (none of the agents did despite me mentioning it). The deluxe content is still in my game and I do not want it because it is ruining my file. No one can step in as a manager (is no one supervising these people??) and no IT specialists work there clearly because no one remotely came close to fixing the issue. I have spend HUNDREDS of dollars on this one game, because it is the only game I play. I have been a part of the franchise since the early 2000s. I cannot believe this is how EA treats their customers. No one fixed my issue, and their only solution was to "post it on the forum" where there's only other **** players trying to help each other. Why sell a product if you cannot manage it?? Normally, people would love to have extra content but I do not want it. Now I'm considering hiring Geek Squad to come fix a game that EA themselves can't fix? I now see why so many players complain about EA/The ****. This is a HORRIBLE company and I will never purchase anything else with them because they can't fix this glitch, nor do they have the staff to do so. Where is all the money going? Hire IT SPECIALISTS or GAME DEVELOPERS who can fix things! I have over 80+ DLC (ranging from $39.99 to $4.99 each) and over ***** hours of gameplay. I have invested so much money and time and energy in this game, you would think I would receive better treatment than this. Two of the agents disconnected from the chat with me without my consent, really poor customer service. I have never seen a business that blatantly disregards the customer as badly as ********************** does. And its not just me, but thousands who are very unsatisfied with them!!!
