Code:Snake - but I have no history of bans or refractions.

[thisisBelmont]

I haven't played Apex Legends in a long, long time (mostly due to all the bugs and glitches that came in the way and ruined the gameplay). And now when I just reinstalled and updated my game, I can't connect to a single match because I keep getting code: snake. I thought it was just a bug so I stopped playing for another week, because on Reddit I kept hearing about how the servers were messed up. And now I that I try again, I still keep getting that error. I searched it and found out that apparently it means that I'm banned?

Hi @thisisBelmont, 

That error message does sometimes come up on banned accounts. If you haven't already I'd recommend reaching out to the Terms of Service team so they can review your account and see if the ban could be overturned. 

You can find more details on how to set up a case with them at the EA Help website.

have contacted support 3 times already and I continue to get the same answer, "you have no penalties on your account". I was told to go to a live chat if I was unable to play the game, however, there is no option for a live chat anywhere. Where do I go and how do I start a live chat?
