Hello CCP and players, my friends acc got banned, and it doesnt show any reason. for almost 2 weak's he dont have any answer from support. And the worst part is he cant even log in now in Eveonline.com and cancel his subscription. So basically CCP is illegally stealing my friends money. If any dev is reading this could you contact me.

You shouldn't have bought ISK from a RMT site. Consider yourself lucky since probably was your first offence so you still have your other accounts; next offence will mean a permanent ban of all your accounts.

CCP are not going to give you a reason, for the simple reason that they don't discuss bans with 3rd parties.

If your "friend" has received a ban it's likely to be because of a EULA breach, in which case no refunds are given as per the agreement everybody agrees to when they play the game.

(2) B. By CCP for Breach or Misconduct

(1) Suspension of Account

Without limiting CCP's rights or remedies, CCP may immediately, and without notice, discontinue or suspend access to the System through your Account, and any and all other Accounts that share the name, phone number, e-mail address, internet protocol address or credit card number with the discontinued or suspended Account, in the event of (i) a breach of the EULA (including the Rules of Conduct) by you or any user under your Account; or (ii) unauthorized access to the System or use of the Game by you or any user under your Account.

(2) Termination of EULA

CCP may terminate the EULA, close all your Accounts, and cancel all rights granted to you under the EULA if: (i) your account has been inactive for a number of 90 days; (ii) CCP is unable to verify or authenticate any information you provide; (iii) you or anyone using any of your Accounts materially breaches the EULA, makes any unauthorized use of the System or Software, or infringes the rights of CCP or any third party; or (iv) CCP becomes aware of game play, chat or player activity under your Account that is, in CCP's discretion, inappropriate, offensive, or in violation of the Rules of Conduct. Such termination shall be effective upon notice transmitted via electronic mail, or any other means reasonably calculated to reach you.

CCP reserves the right to terminate any and all other Accounts that share the name, phone number, e-mail address, internet protocol address or credit card number with the closed Account. Termination by CCP under this section shall be without prejudice to or waiver of any and all of CCP's other rights or remedies, all of which are expressly reserved, survive termination, and are cumulative. You will not be entitled to receive a refund of fees for a termination pursuant to this section.


TL;DR They're not stealing your "friends" money, nor do they have to give a reason for his ban; in fact they can ban anybody they like for any or no reason at all, as per the EULA.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

he is living in other country, he was playing only from his home. And he made ticket to CCP 3 times and still no answer. I know him very long time, and he wouldn't do anything Illegal. But the worst part is still money ticking and they havnt even stated reason for ban. ALMOST 2 WEAK's !!!

He should still be able to log in on eve website even while banned. He just can't play or post on forums. So he should be able to change payment method (cancel future charges) and file petitions for the account.

It is stealing, when character is banned and they still get money. Cuz subscription is still active, and he cant cancel it.

Probably some cat at GM office gave that ban accidentally. You know, you leave open computer and they walk on the keyboard, and bam!, and your friend is banned. 🤷
