Permanent ban (Riot has no empathy at all)
Hello !
I've been a dedicated player of Valorant since beta and have supported the project for almost five years. During this time, I have invested a lot of time, money and effort into account development, attracted new players and tried to do everything possible to promote and improve the game.
Unfortunately, my personal account was recently banned, and I was faced with the fact that I was denied the opportunity to prove my innocence or receive specific explanations about the reason for the blocking. In response, I receive the same messages stating that the situation has already been addressed in another request, and the lock remains in effect without any logs or evidence.
As I said in all of my tickets, I don't have HWID ban, I never used cheats/scripts/hacks. Also I was at work when someone got access to my account and my account got banned.
I always play from the same location and PC, also I don't have any HWID ban, I'm fully innocent . I know they can check that, they can check mine IP and HWID and compare with the person who played, also they can compare to my old games, but they did nothing.
I would like to point out that in more than 30 of my requests, the developers have never offered help or a chance to prove their innocence. Instead, there is constant talk of an alleged "investigation," which, in fact, never happened. This causes a feeling of complete disregard for my questions and the situation in general.
In addition, I asked them questions about smurf accounts, boosters, the possibility of refunding the money spent, and even a gift to another account. However, without reading my messages and referring only to previous requests, they completely ignore all my questions and requests. This creates a feeling of complete disregard for my situation and a lack of desire to help.
I sincerely hope for the opportunity to understand the situation and get at least minimal feedback or help.

I just got the same thing happening me, i think its my VPN i use for work and im HWID banned
my girlfriends account is banned too so im iust trying to unban her at least, but keep getting automated replies....
Do you both use the same computer or?
As I said before, I was at work when my account was banned. I didn't use vpn or anything
I just want attention from Riot (check my tickets, 0 emphaty)
I’m not talking about when you got banned
I’m talking about what you have installed on your computer
Regardless where you are
Well this ain’t the place for it
There’s a reason they don’t care about your tickets
no, but same network
You guys got banned for the same reason or different?
Razer Synapse and Nvidia shadowplay
tbh i understand i will likely never get unbanned cus its how it works,but my gf being banned is so unfair
it says 3rd party software and all i got that fits when i Google it is vpn which i use for work
i also use steelseries moments to make clips incase thats a 3rd party software?
I could see getting banned over a VPN but I don’t understand how that relates to you unless she shares the same vpn IP
no
well idk what to do and i really just want her unbanned, its so unfair to her
I’m assuming she made a ticket with the automatic reply or whatever
i can live with it despite it being fucked up, i gave all proof i can in ticket but they just disregard it
Yeah in there eyes they pull the data from your computer so they don’t need whatever proof you give
will it make a diff if a ticket is made from her device
As i said before, they told me that my account was banned of cheats, it's not about 3rd software. But I was at work, idk Riot don't give a shit, they don't read descriptions, they don't do anything,
I suggested 4-5 options about my ban, but they keep telling me "As we can see, this situation has already been addressed in request #113327535." xdd
although ticket #113327535 does not answer all my questions.
no
I made like 20 tickets from main and 5+- tickets from my alt
0 attention, 0 work from them
As long as it’s on her account
her login*
I see people got banned by HWID and they have 120 ban, but I don't have one, I said that like 100 times but 0 attention
i’m confused on why ur talking about a hardware ban
so you didn’t get hardware banned so what?
because they keep telling me that I have hardware ban which I don't have one
do they read description?
you made a new account?
no
I play on my 2nd
ah
idk if they read it or not tbh
your first ticket matters the most bc that’s the one they’ll read
the more tickets you make the less likely they are to read it
bc ur just saying the same thing and u just look like someone whose mad they got banned
the funny thing is "If you want to come back after 120-hwid ban, you can make a new account" that's what they said to me
also Riot "We're fighting against boosters and smurfs"
I hit immo2 4 times, they want me to play this game from silver?
There is no difference between booster and smurf for the other 9 players, to whom I spoil the impression of the game.
I asked them about this, they said "As we can see, this situation has already been addressed in request #113327535"
xd
this might not be appropriate
I played today on my alt on asc lobbies, I was like 21-2 and enemies and even my teammates were crying because "he's cheater he's cheater report him".
That's how I spoil other people's mood and impression of the game because I'm above
but the difference between a smurf and booster is the same difference between a whor and prostitution
ones paid and ones not but they do the same thing
yeah but we're talking about 9 others players, not me
If you want you can request your data
that’ll tell you how many reports you have for different things
if that gives any insight
for what
well u think it’s bc u got spam reported
data tells you that you didn’t
then you know it’s something else
that’s just if u care enough to find out tho
I will, but they will answer to me "As we can see, this situation has already been addressed in request #113327535"
i'm 200 % sure
i’m confused tho bc ur talking about boosting but you got banned for cheating right?
or was it 3rd party
it’s a different category and a bot answers it since by law they have to release it to you lol
i'm talking about boosting because all I got from Riot "Create a new account"
just imagine, a person can come home from work and it doesn't matter if I'm a smurf or a booster for him, the enemy runs around with a win rate of 80 and kills everyone, he just stops playing because he doesn't enjoy the game.
goes to show they really don’t read it
I was at work, someone got access to my account and played with cheats and when I back home I saw ban
I had 2FA off
oh so why didn’t you make a compromised account ticket
I did, I said that my account was compromised, check IP, check HWID, I can prove my residence, everything, logs from Vanguard. But all I got
"This account was banned for cheats" they don't care if it was me or not
just the fact that cheats were used on THIS account
I beg them to check IP, check something, I can make a ticktock or youtube video, everything
but 0 attention, 0
damn dude
The worst thing that I've played since beta, I involved a lot of players into this game, spend almost 3000 $ and my friends also, someone spend more
and all I got is this
all the effort I put
that's why I want attention from Riot without tickets
i saw a dude who got banned after spending 14K on valorant
feels bad
ping anti cheat analyst ppl
they can look u up
don’t unban tho but sometimes u get more info
so, Riot won't check this thread? xd
not their job so
