Apparently the soccer dudes know their stuff. Pretty sure you can use the DSAR to get transaction history stored by them if you want proof. Not too sure though, best of luck man.
Had to look this up, thanks for educating me. Data Subject Access Request, eh?
peatrick said:Uggh, surely you'll get the random clowns pointing the finger, insisting YOU broke the rules and you'll "get what you deserve." So stupid to blame the victim, but whatever. I've been there, more than once. I haven't spent $1800 in a ~month on Madden before, but yes i've spent that in a game year.
Right now you have two options, neither of which are ideal (maybe three, but only two directly involve this once great and storied video game franchise):
- Basically give up and start a new account
- Attempt to navigate EA Legal and hope they respond in the next 60-90 days, but it will NOT be a quick process
- Simply move on with your life, try to forget about EA games
Regardless what you do, please stop wasting your precious time with EA no-Help. They are less than worthless and will maybe offer to "investigate" only to determine that EA has done nothing wrong, there will be no overturn, blah blah blah.
If you wish to attempt to have your ban overturned, it will require drafting and sending a Certified Letter (ideally with delivery confirmation) to EA Legal. I am not an attorney, so i am defnitely not qualified to provide any type of advice here, however this is the form letter i used to get my prior ban successfully overturned. Go nuts, clone the document and make your own version, with your personal info; EA account, etc. Please let me know any questions. Should cost roughly $6 USD to send the letter. Some folks use UPS/FedEx, but i chose the cheapest path. This will potentially take months to resolve, so hunker down.
Nobody really knows what specific auction house actions will trigger a ban hammer, but they seem to go out in waves. Good luck, man. So sorry to hear this has now happened to you. I've only been unretired since M22 and didn't dive into MUT until M23, yet in that short time i've been banned multiple times. Start by inspecting your account history within EA and take it from there.
Wow thanks alot for your input. Im going to focus on ladders this weeks (just for the learning process lol) but right after ill make a move one way or another.
