Activision I have no real complaints with COD Warzone or Activision Blizzard

I have no real complaints with COD Warzone or Activision Blizzard. I can't find a way to contact them except for having a game issue. I don't have an issue, I have a suggestion for something I would like to see in Warzone. Activision Blizzard does well with bringing out new operators and skins for them, and many are part of the veteran community which I am thankful for as a veteran. My suggestion for a new skin would be Ephraim Mattos. He was a Navy Seal that deployed to Afghanistan and other places, but after he got out of the military he went on his own to Iraq to help out with a group called the Free Burma Rangers. There is video and articles about what he did there. He then started his own charity called Stronghold Rescue and Relief. If you put out a skin of him and give a link with it to the website for Stronghold Rescue and Relief it would be a huge help worldwide to bring awareness of that charity and what they do. I hope Activision Blizzard takes the time to read this, look up Ephraim and his charity, consider it, and let me know. Thank you.

Activision First and foremost, I absolutely love this game which is why I am very pationate about this issue

First and foremost, I absolutely love this game which is why I am very pationate about this issue. I am immensly disapointed by Activisions lack of transparency in account banning procedures and their total lack of customer support (including zero human to human interaction). False positives have been frequent and affected many innoncent players, myself included. When this happens, Activision won't even send an email to the affected players to inform them of their decisions. Let me get this straight, you'll send me an email telling me I received a friend request, but you can't be bothered to tell me that I have been "banned" and why? Activision also makes it impossible for affected players to plead their case, nor does it offer proof supporting its accusations. The "Appeal a ban" feature does not trigger any email responses/followups and seems to only confirm the decision without having an actual human review the case. If humans did review ban appeals, they should have access to gameplay, stats and real data that would clear false positives immediately and undoubtedly. I feel I have been robbed. Robbed of the two 80$ copies of MW I bought for PS4 and PC. That's Activision barring me from my purchases totalling 160$ under false pretexts. These false accusations have also taken a toll on me psychologicaly. I have been fasly flagged as a cheater, which is embarrassing and humiliating because some friends believe Ricochet to be 100% accurate. Activision's unreliable service has cost me financialy, and has also affected my reputation. Please, Activision, get your act together or change your vision of what a FAIR customer experience should be.

Activision Warzone

Dear Sir/Madam,

My account on activision with e-mail adress haure.[protected]@gmail.com and Activision ID BetterCallHau#3716599. My account has been banned and put on limited matchmaking twice in a time span of one month.

I would to complain hereby about whatever algorythm you have that establishes an account is eligible for a limited matchmaking ban pending review.

Whatever it is, the system is faulty and as you may already know impact alot of players across the world. Players have to wait for 5 to 10 days before the ban is lifted. Most of the accounts put on the limited matchmaking list end up being unbanned since alot of the bans are due to unvalid and ungrounded reports from other players in game.

Please adress this frustrating issue that affects a substantial amount of players.

Best regards,

Haure Gardie

Claimed loss: Time and enjoyment of a game.

Desired outcome: unbann and optimize the process so that this does not happen so frequently and faulty.

Activision Poor game choice on warzone

Just wanted to make a complaint about the poor game choices available right now as some of us only plays plunder with friends and we’re no good at anything else. This takes the fun out of this game by removing a game that we have a chance at having fun.

Just don’t understand why you guys not have all the option to the public.

Thanks for taking the fun out of this game.

Desired outcome: Just have all the options for people to choose.

Activision mw2/mw3

Customer support is useless and feed you the exact same scripted message.

I have been shadowbanned now FOURTEEN TIMES with absolutely zero help or explanation. Typically these are 2 week long states of where you can still open the game and buy bundles! That’s about it though because you won’t find any lobbies or the lobby you do find will have 100ms+ ping with people rage hacking/ aimbotting, etc. For me personally this equates to roughly over half a year of being denied access to a product and service I paid for. The amount of people this has affected is surely capable of alarming the FTC, we all know how they feel about you and Microsoft. Can we all say mass arbitration?

Activision Call of Duty account ban

I recently re-downloaded Call of Duty to play with my friends to find out my account had been hacked and then banned. I can’t fix it via the website because a webpage error will not let me log in to appeal a ban. I’m furious as someone who has spent tons of money on previous call of duties it is very frustrating that you can’t call a help line or even speak with a person. My personal email is [protected]@aol.com and my Xbox email is Timothy.[protected]@aol.com please help me appeal this ban and fix my account that should’ve been safe while I wasn’t playing

Claimed loss: My account

Desired outcome: To fix the ban my account and allow me to sign into Activision.

Activision Call of Duty Modern warfare 2

Like many, many hundreds / thousands of others, I woke one morning to log onto my game to find I was permanently banned for using illegal software / manipulation of game data. I am a very casual game with a very poor k/d ratio who plays to unwind in my spare time. I do not cheat, never have and dont condone the thousands of overseas cheats who continually plague lobbies.

The appeal process is a scam which means they send an automated email to say the ban is being upheld. Your anti-cheat software is pathetic, allowing cheats to continually ruin the game while banning hundreds / thousands of innocent players.

Scamming company with absolutely no customer service.

Claimed loss: >£100

Desired outcome: Re-instatement of my game account / full re-imbursement of all purchases made on my banned account

Activision cod mw3 2023 anti cheat

Hi I've received a temporary ban sign on my mw3 2023 account. I haven't done anything remotely close to a ban! I don't use game chat it's turned off and I do not hack I have a day job and only play a few hours a day when possible! I've paid £70 for a game that I can't play properly because of a shadow ban for nothing. Please sort this out its because I'm an iridescent player and people don't like when I drop a good game and I get spam reported. This isn't on been a passionate cod gamer since cod4 and never been banned for 15 years of playing. Not good I look forward to playing and then this happens please un shadow ban my account. Not how they should treat a player of 15 years of playing they system is so wrong and punishing good players for no reason.

Desired outcome: Get my account back to normal. And get me out these shadow ban lobbies full of hackers and sort the anti cheat out. Just because you get spam reported for having a good game and this happens! Absolute jokers.

This is just crazy. I've always used a playstation and once my phone to play cod games you're banning peoples accounts for no reason and you need to pay attention to it. I would love for my profile unbanned I actually love this company introduced me to gaming groups I spent 100$ u.S. Dollars on this game and pre-ordered to be permanently banned before even leaving the start menu. Terrible experience people in these review/banning positions not robots. Your system has failed you please stop trying to cover it up im willing to provide any details and even send you my personal playstation 5. Monitor my games everyday if you want I wouldn't cheat.

Activision Battle.net Call of Duty

I have been unfairly banned on 13th November 2023 and have given no reason for being banned. I appealed but they have upheld the ban. A mere 3 days after purchasing MW3 they have now snatched the product out of my hands and don’t even have the decency to refund me. It’s criminal behaviour and needs to be stopped.

UK Consumer Act 2015 provides me with rights with regards to faulty software. This software is faulty as it has incorrectly banned a non cheating player.

Account is medal123#2693

Activision Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3

I was wrongfully banned after only 2.8 hours of gameplay. I couldn’t even refund the game through steam because they don’t refund games in which you are banned. Ban Appeal does absolutely nothing.

Now I just feel scammed.

I was using MSI Afterburner at the time for GPU/CPU temperatures and average FPS, I don’t know if thats why I was banned, but it’s unjust and wrong to keep me banned for doing nothing wrong.

Claimed loss: $75

Desired outcome: Unban me

Activision Call Of Duty Mobile

Dear Activision support,

My codm account has been accessed by someone and I want to fix it. Recently my account was having suspicious changes which I didn't make and even got a facebook account linked which I haven't and now even worse while I try to open the game and play out of nowhere it says account has been accessed elsewhere I want to know is there anyway to unlink the facebook account from my game?

I have already tried to change my password and enabled 2FA but nothing has changed and still there are changes being made I've spent so much time in my account and now I can't even use it. For me the game is all the joy I have so I would be real grateful if you helped me get my account back.
