Hey everyone! I’m reaching out because I was banned from the game, and it feels totally unfair. I haven’t used any hacks or cheats, yet I’ve received a suspension for “Exploitative Activity: Unauthorized Cheat Programs (Hacks).” I want to share the timeline leading up to my ban and see if anyone can help me figure out what went wrong. Two days before the ban, my friends and I ran some mythic dungeons and did a heroic raid for cloth farming. The day before, I leveled my alts while helping a friend understand the game. On the day of the ban, I was just playing normally, but experienced some heavy lag, and suddenly got logged out with a suspension message. I’m at a loss because I didn’t cheat at all, and five of my friends received the same ban. I’ve tried contacting Blizzard with no success. Any insights or advice would be hugely appreciated!

I have a similar story. I got banned for no reason, kept getting the same vague ‘you cheated’ replies from support. Out of nowhere, I was unbanned after about 10 days. It seems like their ban wave hits innocent players sometimes, so don’t lose hope!
Same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago. I felt completely ignored by support; I only got automated replies. It’s frustrating, but just keep pushing your case. Good luck!
I appreciate you sharing your experience! Hoping something good comes out of this.
It’s a tough spot to be in man, and unfortunately, a lot of people come here with similar stories. They often end up being accused of botting, even when they swear they didn’t. It might help to create a new ticket focusing on a payment issue instead of the ban. Blizzard seems to take those more seriously. Good luck!
Thanks for the tip! I’ll give that a shot.
Your story gives me hope! I’m really hoping the same happens for me and my friends.
