I am an APEX player, and I would like to report the behavior of Electronic Arts (EA) for arbitrary account banning, which has seriously damaged the interests of players.First of all, EA has banned many players without sufficient evidence. Many players are suddenly banned from their accounts during normal gaming and are unable to continue playing. These players invest a lot of time and money in the game, and they follow the rules of the game, but they are treated so unfairly. For example, some players have their accounts suddenly blocked after purchasing in-game virtual currency, advanced equipment, or paid game content, which means that they lose the right to use these paid content, which directly causes financial losses.Secondly, there are many problems with EA's ban appeal process. Banned players often do not receive a reasonable response when they appeal. They provided all sorts of evidence to prove their innocence, but EA either delayed processing the complaint or dismissed it outright without giving a convincing reason. As a result, players have nowhere to complain, and can only watch their accounts be banned, and their previous investment is wasted.This kind of indiscriminate account ban not only violates business ethics, but also violates the relevant principles of consumer rights protection. As gamers, we have legal rights and interests in the game, including the right to use the content we paid for and the right to play the game normally in accordance with the rules. This behavior of EA has seriously damaged the fairness of the game and the game experience of players, and also made many players lose trust in EA.I hope that the relevant authorities will pay attention to this issue, investigate EA, and ask EA to improve the ban review mechanism, ensure that the ban is based on solid evidence, and establish a fair, transparent and efficient grievance handling system to protect the interests of the majority of players.Business Response

Follow-Up on My Complaint Against EA Regarding Account Ban ***************************************** Representative,I acknowledge that EA has provided a single chat message as evidence (shut u fxxk up) for the harassment charge. However, I would like to emphasize that this message was the result of an ongoing verbal abuse situation that occurred during the same match.Throughout the game, another teammate repeatedly verbally abused one of our team members (?) through voice chat, affecting his performance and creating a hostile environment. That teammate was playing very well despite the abuse and tried his best to save us. I could not tolerate the constant harassment from the abusive player any longer, so I typed that message in frustration.After the match, ? and I actually became friends and played multiple games together. He also confirmed that the abusive teammates language was extremely disruptive and made the game very stressful for us both.EA has only shared the single message I typed in response to that situation. They have not provided any context from the entire match (e.g., voice chat logs, overall behavior, the constant harassment from the other player). I believe that this context is essential for a fair review of the ban.I respectfully request that EA provide a more complete investigation that includes the full match recording or chat/voice logs so that the harassment can be properly evaluated. I believe that I was a victim of repeated verbal abuse and that my reaction was a one-time response in frustrationnot a consistent pattern of harassment.Thank you again for your help in ensuring a fair resolution to this *********** regards,Radiant C EA ID: ******* Email: *******************Customer Answer

Dear BBB,
Thank you for your continued assistance in my case. I am writing to provide additional context and important clarifications regarding my appeal of the EA account ban, related to Case #********.
- On the day of the incident, I contacted the teammate who was also targeted in the same match (in-game ID ? (xi)) via Steam chat afterward. He confirmed the situation in the match and also felt significant pressure from the other teammates verbal abuse. (I have uploaded relevant screenshots as evidence.)
- From these chat records, it is clear that both he and I were deeply troubled by the abusive behavior from that teammate, and it appears that EA did not properly investigate or take appropriate action against that player.
- I respectfully request that BBB ask EA to provide the full match voice and text chat logs for that game, instead of relying solely on a single text screenshot as evidence. As victims in that match, my teammate and I were subjected to repeated verbal abuse and pressure throughout the entire game. Especially after we used Chinese voice communication, the abusive language and pressure escalated further, which we both felt might have a racially discriminatory component.
- I only reacted after enduring constant harassment during the entire match, and my single text response was an attempt to defend myself. However, EA permanently banned me without considering the context or the pressure I faced. On Steam alone, I have over ***** hours of Apex Legends playtime, and I have never had any record of harassment or offensive behavior, which clearly shows that I am a respectful and committed player.
- According to EAs own policies, account violation handling usually includes an initial warning or temporary suspension, not an immediate permanent ban. Furthermore, EA previously acknowledged that my account had been mistakenly banned for a nickname issue and assured me that such an incident would not happen again. Yet in this new case, EA permanently banned my account without any warning, which I find extremely unfair. It also makes me question the integrity of EAs appeal and enforcement processes, as such arbitrary punishment completely disregards the rights of loyal players like me.
I have always loved this game and respected its rules, and I sincerely hope for a fair and reasonable resolution.
Thank you again for your patience and understanding.
Sincerely,

Further Clarification Regarding the Appeal of My EA Account Ban
******************************************* Support Team,
Hello! Thank you very much for your patience and assistance during my appeal process. I am writing once again regarding the ban imposed on my account to provide some important background information and clarifications, which I hope will help you review my case more thoroughly and objectively.
A few days ago, I contacted another teammate from the match in question via Steam (game ID: ? (xi)), and he confirmed that he also experienced harassment and sustained pressure from that player during the match and felt the same way about the situation. I have attached relevant screenshots as evidence.
From these chat logs, it is clear that throughout the entire match, my teammate and I were consistently subjected to abusive language and pressure from another player. This harassment escalated even further after we used Chinese voice chat, which made us both feel that there might be an element of racial discrimination involved. However, it seems that EA did not fully investigate the context of the entire match or take any action against that player. Instead, my account was permanently banned based solely on a single emotional response I posted in the all-chat (shut u f*** up).
I only responded out of frustration after enduring repeated harassment and pressure alongside my teammate, yet EA issued a permanent ban without considering the pressure and emotional context I was under at that time. More importantly:
?? I have over ***** hours of Apex Legends gameplay on Steam and have never received any penalties for harassment or offensive language. This demonstrates that I have always respected the rules and have been a responsible, positive player.
?? According to EAs User Agreement (Section 8) and the official Content Moderation Guidelines, account violations are generally handled first with a warning or temporary suspension, rather than an immediate permanent ban. EAs website also clearly states that these behaviors will accumulate, and multiple violations may result in termination of your EA Account, which ********************* permanent bans should be applied only after repeated violations.
?? Additionally, my account was previously mistakenly banned due to a username issue. EA later acknowledged this error, overturned the ban, and promised in an email that this type of situation would not happen again. Yet now, without any warning or prior notice, I have once again received a permanent ban, which I feel is extremely unfair.
I have always loved this game and have made every effort to follow the rules. I understand that my response at that time was not appropriate, but it was triggered by the long-standing harassment and pressure I endured during the match. I promise that I will never allow such behavior to happen again. I sincerely request that EA conduct a thorough review of my account, fully consider the circumstances outlined above, and provide me with a fair and reasonable resolution.
Thank you again for your time and understanding.

I am writing with extreme frustration regarding the permanent ban on my account. In the previous email, customer service refused to restore my account citing the use of cheating software. I insist that I did not cheat, and based on my experience of my account being hacked, I believe it may be that the thief used cheating to play the game. Anyway, I am unwilling to take responsibility for the cheating behavior of the account thief, so I object to the customer service's refusal to restore my account on the grounds of cheating. I have now completed the upgrade of my account security ************************ and am ready to restore my account. Your current refusal to restore my account constitutes gross negligence toward a loyal customer. I demand: ? ********************************** reinstatement ?

EA's customer service promised a resolution or at least a follow-up within three days. Unfortunately, two weeks went by without any response. After reaching out again, I was once more promised a response. Another week has passed, and still nothing.The timing of the ban, occurring directly after my recent purchases and attempts at recovering my accounts, feels deeply wrong and questionable. Its concerning that EA would swiftly accept my money yet refuse to engage or provide adequate assistance with accessing my account and content, subsequently banning my account without explanation or recourse.I am asking for BBBs intervention with Electronic Arts. ***********************, I would like my account reinstated, given the considerable time and resources I've dedicated. Alternatively, if Electronic Arts refuses to reinstate my account, I believe it's only fair to receive a full refund for the recent transactions.

I am rejecting this response because it does not address the core of my complaint. EA continues to refer to a vague violation of Terms of Service throughout many of other complaints you see here, without specifying what the violation actually was. Terms of Service is broad and without context, this explanation is insufficient.Additionally, I initially contacted the BBB due to EAs lack of proper support. I have made multiple attempts to resolve some of my issues listed in my original complaint directly with EA, but Ive received no concrete answers or follow-through, despite being told I would get responses. Their support process has been inconsistent and extremely difficult to navigate, often leaving me without updates for weeks.
Directing me back to the same support system, that initially failed me, through a canned response feels dismissive and unprofessional. It gives the impression that EA is more interested in deflecting accountability than resolving issues, possibly to avoid reputational harm by keeping this matter off a public record like the BBB. If EA was genuinely interested in resolving this, and many other complaints seen here, they would take this opportunity to do so instead of pushing me back into a system thats already failed to help.
Lastly, this response also fails to address my request for either account reinstatement or a refund for recent purchases made prior to the ban. I am not looking for generic links or being sent back through a broken systemI am looking for a clear explanation and resolution. Saying I need to contact the Terms of Service team directly is misleadingthere is no way to actually speak to anyone, on this team, directly. All I can do is submit a request and wait indefinitely for a reply that may never come. This lack of accessibility and transparency is a core reason why I sought outside help.Sincerely,

this still does not resolve the core issue, i don't have access to the product that i purchased or the account. i managed to get my apex legends ban overturned today, however, after i did that, you guys then banned my account for suspicious activity. i assume for me going through this process, is this a form of retaliation, because i involved a third party? i have attempted to recover it through live chat several times. i give them the requested information, even as far as my order numbers, credit card number, and product key. yet, you still tell me this isn't enough information. why is your support asking for my credit card number used for the purchases? how is this not enough information? i have given you guys more than enough information, personal information at that: my date of birth, my government name, my address. i have given this to several representatives, and still nothing. i don't feel safe that this information is continuously requested, for apparently no reason. please don't give me a generic copy and paste response. i am taking the time out of my day to write this, and you can do the same. even here, i have given you guys enough information for my account. you have my order numbers, you have my name. i can give anything. i just want a third party involved, because going through your channels does not provide a resolution. if someone sought legal advice in regard to this, would you ask the plaintiff to verify their identity before proceeding with the lawsuit?

As many EA game players, we write this letter of complaint with great frustration and anger. Recently, EA's anti-cheat system had a serious anomaly, resulting in a large number of innocent players' accounts being banned, which has caused great damage to many players. In the past period of time, many players in the normal EA's various games, without warning received the account was banned notice. These players did not break any rules during the game, nor did they use any cheating methods. They range from veterans who have spent a lot of time crafting their characters and worlds to newcomers who have just stepped into the world of EA games. However, the anti-cheating system indiscriminately blocked their accounts, making it impossible for them to continue to enjoy the game, and their previous investment of time, energy and possibly money was wasted.Business Response

Ive had the **** 4 game for over 10 close to 11 years at this point and have spent a ton of money on expansion packs over the years, especially while the **** 4 was on the origin app, before it was transitioned to the EA app. I logged in today on 6-1-25 to see that almost all of my expansion packs were gone and EA expects me to buy them all again not knowing ive already purchased them. I also looked for a support number on their website and saw no way to contact them about the issue. Also since the game went through an app transition and i purchased some of them while still on origin my order history on the EA app doesnt even show all of the expansion packs that ive purchased over the years. The settlement i want is my expansion packs back.Business Response

EA Electronics is the worse company ever due to poor communication and employees. My mom renewed her subscription and when she entered POGO game it locked her out. She did finally log in but all of her current points, gem, etc. were gone. It was a screen for new users. I conversed back and forth for the majority of the time. The agents could not understand anything I was saying Yes, I got very frustrated and asked if they knew proper English. I also told the agent I will report you and your company and BBB. I also mentioned my mom's attorney. I was frustrated yes but this has been an issue since Friday May 29th. I finally contacted EA this morning in regard to this matter. I was astonished the agents did not know anything I was conveying and referred me to a forum that could assist me. Why do I need to contact a forum because the CHAT is supposedly to assist. I was wrong with my frustration, and I will take responsibility, but it is the same with any company. You are connected to a foreign help desk and most of the time you cannot understand them. I cannot type that fast and have cataracts. The agent or company will end the chat if you do not respond or type quickly. The chat was ended twice because I did not respond. My 82-year-old mother has been a member for many years. She does not have access now because they are going to review this further. I did ask in frustration how long and the agent could not provide a time frame.Business Response

I am rejecting this response because:Is there anyone that will be able to comprehend my request? I had two agents that did not. I will accept if this answered.
POGO is fine but lost current points and gems my mom accumulated. My question is: Where did they go? It seems that she paid for ??. Pogo wants her to start all over again when she renews.

I am rejecting this response because I am told to contact EA Support but does it not require a password to reach the site? It will not accept any password I have used. What kind of business are you running? My mom wants to spend another $42 or so to renew her yearly subscription but what will happen to the amount she already paid recently? ??
