Get Unbanned from Apex Legends – 2025 Appeal Guide

Unbanster Research TeamBan Appeal1 Comment

Quick answer: You can unban an Apex Legends account if you follow EA’s appeal process and attach compelling proof – such as match logs, thorough defense, Easy Anti-Cheat reports, or purchase receipts (depending on your ban reason).

Below you’ll find the exact steps and success data we’ve gathered from thousands of tickets.

Key takeaways

  • Cheating false positives and hacked accounts see the highest reversal rate;
  • Toxicity bans can be lifted if chat context shows no slurs or threats;
  • A VPN will not help you get unbanned from Apex;
  • Boosting ban reversals depend on IP logs and rank-progression evidence;
  • Attach your proof in one ticket as multiple open tickets will reset your queue position.
  • Average EA response time in 2024-25: 2-3 business days.

Why EA Bans Apex Accounts

Our 2024 ticket sample shows four dominant allegations. Note that numbers below reflect our ticket-volume dataset, not EA’s global stats (you can see Apex’s rules here).

ReasonShare of cases (2024)
Cheating46.72%
Toxicity25.18%
Boosting / account sharing8.11%
Compromised / hacked account16.84%
Real money trading3.15%

Example false-positive: the player typed “revive me wtf” after dying and was falsely reported and flagged for harassment. Because no slurs or threats were used, EA overturned the toxicity ban once the full chat log was provided. Hate-speech bans that include slurs, however, are almost never lifted.

Helpful Tips Before You Click “Send”

  • Keep tone neutral – no insults, threats, or ALL CAPS.
  • One ticket at a time – multiple opened appeals delay your case and are frowned upon.
  • Mention patch and relevant context – note if ban occurred right after an Apex Season update, as EA tracks patch-related false positives.
  • Stay calm if denied – you can reply further with extra evidence, but angry rants will be rejected.
  • Zip large logs – Scans or EAC files can exceed 10 MB. Compress them (such as .zip) before upload.

Apex Unban FAQ

Can you make a new EA account after being banned?

That depends on the nature of your ban. If it was just your account that was banned, you can create a new account.
If you were HWID banned, any account you create on that particular computer will also get banned, preventing you from playing Apex altogether. This can only be solved by successfully appealing both bans.

Does EA delete banned or inactive accounts?

No, EA will not delete your account regardless if it’s banned or inactive. The only way to have your account deleted (if you really want to), is to submit an account deletion request to EA (such as GDPR).

Can you bypass an Apex ban?

There’s really no safe way to bypass an Apex ban, especially not a HWID one. The best way to do so is by appealing it to get it removed. This way you’ll also get to keep your skins and progress intact.
Using a spoofer or trying to change computer parts can cause your new ones to get banned as well.

Will EA ban you for using a VPN?

No, EA does not ban for VPN usage, unless you’re specifically using it to make purchases from other countries. But, keep in mind that if you’re trying to bypass a HWID ban with it, it will not work.

How long does EA take to review an appeal?

Our average response time is 2-3 business days. Hacked-account tickets get priority and may be fixed within 24 hours; cheating appeals can run for weeks or more, depending on the case.
