Last night I received an email from Blizzard support which notified me that I have been permanently banned for ‘Exploitation of game mechanics.’ Not even sure how I would be banned for that. I haven’t done any exploits in Overwatch, never had never will.
I’m posting here because I simply don’t know what to do, and I’m hoping some blizzard employee will eventually see this thread and possibly look into my issue.
I have tried to appeal the ban but I received a cookie-cutter, almost copy and paste like response of this ban is permanent and will remain in place.
For years I have been an active member and consumer of Blizzard products, spending hundreds of dollars if not thousands, and have lost all my progress because of this mistake. Not to mention I am deeply disheartened over the support staffs response not willing to investigate the problem.
Whether you believe me or not is up to you, and I don’t expect all of you to, but I would appreciate any help.

Sadly, you are stuffed.
You can appeal, but they will almost certainly send a generic, copy paste, reply.
I tried that and failed - hopefully someone who can help me sees this.

So shocking how this is happening to so many. Blizzard are disgusting with this type of behaviour.

Just received the same email this morning. A lot of people seem to be getting wrongfully banned. I’ve sent in an appeal and hoping for the best

If you read the thread by this person in technical support, you’ll get a better picture of what happened before you start accusing anyone; falsely or otherwise.

Do you doubt in the Company is worth 69b.7$ ?
I would not cancel your punishment.
Try to call them and ask for senior support. Or even send a paper letter (yes lol).
They don’t have a phone desk, and writing to them would just end up in fan mail and ignored.
There is a nice note on the support pages that says they won’t over turn account actions on appeal. The only time they’ve ever overturned is through an internal review.
