    Hello!My activision account name is Relentless#*******, i am playing or i should say i was playing from battle.net. My account must of been hacked but not completly taken away from me. What i mean by that is a hacker took my account to use it and exploit on without changing my login informations. Ilive alone so i know for a fact itts not sombody in my home, also for the couple last months since the end of November of 2023 i was on a vessel since my field of work is marine engineer. I had not a clue what was going on with the game or my account since the last time i had log on to play with my friends. Please look into this i do not hack,mod, exploit or do anything against TOI also you can see on the last past title of Call of Duty's that I have played i never had any kind of this incidents and my I am totaly clear, please do this background check to see that i am clear and all the years i've been playing the game i never did anything against the Code of Conduct.

    Hello ********,

    It appears that an account deletion request was performed for the account you're trying to access. We cannot undo the right to erasure request as it has already been processed, and there is no way to restore your personal data because it has been erased from Activision systems. To ensure that players understand the permanence of this request, the portal requires players to confirm that they wish to move forward with their request, and they must acknowledge that. In doing so, they are requesting that all personal data associated with the authorized accounts be removed and that neither Activision nor they themselves will ever be able to recover the information.

    I have two accounts for MW3 one is my wife's and one is mine. We both play the game habitually when we have the opportunity (me more so than her). But recently in the last couple of months everytime we play we end up getting put into "Limited Matchmaking Lobbies" from either false reporting from other users or their faulty "Richochet Anti-Cheat". I recently started playing again after taking a few year break and got back into my groove of the game where I was when I was a teenager (was a pro Halo 3 player in MLG ******* and MLG *******). I also played call of duty a lot then too starting back in Call of Duty 3. Been a fan if the game for so long until now. I have invested tons of money into these two accounts and now I can't play the game. The first few times it happened I was like ok I got false reported. Now I can't play the game for more than a day without getting shadowbanned for a week+. I was 300SR away from reaching Iridescent in the new ranked mode when I got banned again. This has got to stop. I request to be removed from the reporting system because I have been a faithful customer for over 10 years and plan to attempt to go pro in the next WSOW if possible. I just began streaming and am starting to amass a following. I need to be whitelisted like the other streamers because this is absolutely unacceptable. From the numerous amount of times I have been banned the system should've picked up that I obviously AM NOT cheating in any way considering it UNBANNED me everytime!! Please understand that I am purely frustrated with the situation and hope that Activision will take this complaint seriously and help a faithful customer!!

    I am rejecting this response because: The fact is I am having an unpleasant experience playing the game because of the faulty system. I am well aware of the "Appeal a Ban". However, when I am in limited matchmaking I get put into lobbies with hackers and I am NOT one! Thus you are punishing me for an infraction that hasn't been proven I have committed. ******** until proven guilty? Or guilty until proven innocent?

    I am rejecting this response because: I'm curious to know how you checked my account with no information provided to you regarding my account information? Because my wife's account is in a "Limited Matchmaking" state once again! This is utterly ridiculous. Like I previously stated. I want both of my accounts whitelisted from the Ricochet anticheat! I am obviously not cheating!! I have been in Limited Matchmaking (cheater lobbies) for forever it's an ongoing cycle at this point! And your previous response was a lie...you literally just lied to the consumer in a BBB complaint tool! That's wild! I want both if our accounts whitelisted. Meaning no more Limited Matchmaking going forward. You are losing customers that have been playing for over a decade because you guys can't get it right! If I don't get my accounts whitelisted, I will involve my litigation team. This is unacceptable.

    Dear BBB,Today at 2/20/2024 I was playing with my friends. After the game we won i got a message: Player Kicked. I checked the appeal a ban on Activision site and it says: LIMITED MATCHMAKING. I searched on multiple forums and all say that this means it is a Shadowban. It says I have to wait 1-14 days according to the forums. The reason I am making this complaint is because I did not break any rules. It is unfair I am not able to play the game for this long. Also there is no way to appeal for this on their forums. Can you guys sort this problem out because I am not able to contact their support. On the document I added shows my details for the account.Thanks in advance.***************

They are not taking legal actions. Did some researches and found that it can take up to 14 days. Also this happens because people spam report you if you kill them. It happened in a game with 14 kills while streamers make ***** kills and dont get limeted marchmaking because they are whitelisted. Please BBB do something about this. There are plenty innocent people out there with the same issue as me and waiting without any reason. Please help me i am begging you. This is not nice of them.

    Activision case number: ******** I am writing to express my concerns and seek a resolution regarding a significant issue with my account. I have purchased "Modern Warfare 3" for both PC and PS5 platforms, totaling $160, and have additionally invested around $100 in in-game assets. However, I am unable to access these assets due to an email linkage issue. The core of the problem lies in the account email being linked to an Apple "Hide my email" address. This feature restricts incoming emails to only those from Battle.net, making it impossible for me to receive any verification or account-related emails from Activision. As a result, I am locked out of my account and unable to utilize the content I have rightfully paid for. Over the past two months, I have made multiple attempts to contact your support team for assistance. Unfortunately, my requests have either been ignored or my tickets closed without any explanation or resolution. This lack of response and support is not only frustrating but also unfair, considering the amount I have invested in your products. I am requesting your immediate attention to this matter. The solution I seek is straightforward: Please change the email associated with my account to a different one that I can provide, allowing me full access to my account and the content I have purchased. Your prompt and positive response will be greatly appreciated, and I hope this matter can be resolved amicably and efficiently. Thank you for your attention to this matter. What platform are you using to play the game? -> Battle.net on PC Your full Xbox Gamertag, full PSN ID or your full battle tag (Name#****)? -> RANDOMCLICKR#**** Your Full Activision ID (name#*******? -> RandomClicker#******* The email address on the Activision ID? -> ********************************************************* The email address you want to use? -> *********************************

    I am rejecting this response because:
    Business (Activision) didn't provide me necessary help and I still can't get full control over my account where I invested over $200. 

    It seems you guys are completely ignoring what I described as my initial problem, also it seems like you completely ignored the fact that I provided ticket number twice during initial message and after that. 

    I'll do this 3rd time:
    OFFICIAL ACTIVISION TIKET NUMBER 31299947
    NEW TICKET I JUST CREATED: 31357256

    Your support is closing my tickets with the message that they can't update my email since I don't access to that.
    Well, that's the only reason I'm asking you to update it because that old email doesn't exist anymore. 

    My arguments that I can provide any possible prove that I'm the owner of that account were completely ignored. 
    Please help me to resolve this issue. 

    I'll continue escalating this issue as much as I can till my problem will be resolved. It's not fair that I'm investing a decent amount of money in your products and games and you can't even help me with my basic asks.

    Hello *******,  
      
    Your request might be denied if the email address you provide is not eligible for an update. Due to the security implications behind updating an email, you will need to retry the process through a new support ticket and provide a list of all email addresses in your possession (excluding the email they have already rejected). Keep in mind that an alternative email address should not be tied to a different Activision account for the process to work. Here's how to submit a new support ticket:  
      
    Go to ************************************************ (this page won't request 2FA).  
    Go to the login screen.  
    Enter using your Activision account credentials or your linked gaming platform credentials.  
    Check the CAPTCHA box.  
    Proceed to log in.  
    Select a title like Modern Warfare III or Warzone.  
    Select your platform.  
    Select the topic.  
    Select the issue you're experiencing (change it if the page doesn't allow you to continue).  
    Fill out the support ticket details and click "submit."  
      
    If you encounter difficulties in submitting your email response to your case, it's possible to reply via the Activision Support website (go to "My Cases" and use the comments section to submit your reply). Once you create your support ticket, please send us the ticket number so we can expedite the case. When creating your support ticket, we recommend mentioning your BBB complaint number on it.

    Got shadowbanned by activision because Im a good player not fair that good players get banned for being good not everyone is a cheater. People are actually good at the game and you guys always ruin it by banning people who have no right to be banned. Instead of paying attention to people who dont cheat how about you guys actually pay attention to the people that never get banned for cheating

    I have been trying to change my email address on my activision account for months now. The email address i have on my account has been deleted years ago due security breaches of someone trying to access my email. I tried explaining to activision about my situation and how there was nothing i could do. I changed my password security questions but it wouldnt help so I had to delete the account. I explained to Activision the situation but practically they would ignore me or not bother on helping me in my situation in the slightest. I was willing to help to verify that I am the user of the account but they would just close my ticket on go on with their day. All i want to do is to just change my email address on the account thats it nothing more.

    I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me.

    Hello Iram,

    Since you don't have access to the email address on this Activision account, there's no way to verify that you're the owner of the account. Only verified account owners can request changes to account details due to privacy and security concerns.
     
    You can still play our games, and you can still log in to the Activision account if you have any accounts linked to it. To log in to your account, select a linked account type on the ******************** account login page, then log in to your linked account: *************************************************************.

    Best Regards

    I am rejecting this response because:

    I have provided the information that you have asked and yet still tell me that I haven't verified that I'm not the owner? I have all of the recent purchases I have made on my account. I have the receipts along with them. The response was unhelpful. I explained the situation on why the email was deleted. I just want to update my email address thats all. So i can be up to date. There has to be another solution to this.

    Hello Iram,

    After the research done with the details shared it was confirmed that it will not be possible to proceed with your request, without the access to the email on the account no changes can be made.

    You can still play our games, and you can still log in to the Activision account if you have any accounts linked to it. To log in to your account, select a linked account type on the ******************** account login page, then log in to your linked account: *************************************************************.

    Complaint: 21320008

    I am rejecting this response because:

    I have prodived you information that you have asked. The only way i couldve provided that information is by logging in to my account. I have made lots of purchases and purchased almost every call of duty game you have. You are telling me you cant prove im the owner? Even though i provided everything you have asked. I dont like the response Im not asking you to delete my account im simply asking is to change my email address. I have receipts after receipts of purchases. You can't just change my email address? I am rejecting your response. I hope we can both come to a solution. I will provide anything you ask. That only I the owner of the account would be able to provide.

    Sincerely,
