I haven't played apex in almost a year and I decided to hop on but when i was loading into my match it took me to the main menu and gave me a "your client was banned message". Confused i went to the ea help page to see why i was banned on apex and there is no ban on record. just in case this is important to the case i had my ea account locked (not sure if it was seen as banned) I was not able to login but after talking to a ea support rep it was unlocked and i was told it was because i was inactive for so long.

Hey @UselessMailbox,

 

The ban history page there shows specific types of account actions, so not all in-game bans or suspensions will appear there. Sorry for the confusion!

 

Glad to hear you were able to get the EA Account itself unlocked. I'd definitely go through these security steps in that case as well, just to be sure no one else that had accessed the account may still be able to get in.

 

From that point however the Terms of Service team will need to investigate the in-game ban, so please go through these steps to submit an appeal. If you've already submitted the appeal or an advisor had transferred the case for you, you'll just need to wait on a reply from our ToS team.

 

You can keep an eye on your case status here, and the ToS team will reach out via email once they've completed the investigation into the ban itself.
