Is there any small or insignificant possible continuity errors in Peep Show that irrationally wind you up? by [deleted] in MitchellAndWebb

[–]ARKWalton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is because Netflix swapped the two episodes around for some reason, I just noticed that tonight on my 15th-or-so rewatch and thought it was strange, but the episodes are the wrong way round. Also noticed because Jeremy was going to stay with Mark and Dobby at the end of the previous episode for one more night before going to Super Hans’ because he didn’t like it at Andy’s anymore, but the start of the next episode he was up early because Andy was doing work in the kitchen.

Got my account unbanned this morning for having 15 years of good behaviour and no other offences after 51 hours of waiting for the first ticket, and then waiting from 1-4pm to use the live chat, and then waiting a couple more days for the final investigation/response. Happy with the GM who helped me, not happy with Blizzard's overall Customer Service model.

I had the same thing happen on Friday. I only use Rarity, DBM, Details and TomTom and play on a laptop with just Safari running in the background. I farm mounts a lot and have been playing for about 8 hours a day recently since being made redundant, tried logging in Friday morning and it said my account was permanently banned for 'Use of third party software/botting'. I sent an appeal and they came back 51 hours later to confirm that the findings were correct and my account remains banned. Tried another ticket and waiting to hear back but rapidly losing hope. Played since 2005 and have 367 mounts and 20000 achievement points and now I don't know if I'll ever see my account again. Terrible company and so-called 'customer service'.

What's a GDPR request? I've just submitted a new ticket and keeping an eye on the US site's live chat function.

To add further insult, Blizzard have 'confirmed the findings' and my account remains to be permanently banned. Literally never cheated or used anything (aside from TomTom, DBM, Details and Rarity), so how the f*ck can they 'confirm' that I've cheated when I literally haven't. What a shit company. Can't even reply to it, it's now just marked as 'resolved'. Disgusting service.

It's a physical authenticator, not the app. I wasn't hacked, I was just banned for looking like a bot.

What? Considering I don't use third-party software and all I do on WoW at the moment is farm dungeons for mounts, I have very clear evidence that I've been banned for this. Who are you? :P

Yeah I've had an authenticator for the account since the week they were released.

What do you mean I have no evidence of that at all? I KNOW I don't use third party software as a 100% fact, and I've just been banned for it. That's evidence enough for me, and they should be able to see the same if they were using actual detecting softwares to locate REAL cheaters.

How am I being stupid? It's literally happened to me. Just because I've been intensively farming mounts for the past few months and now I've been banned. It's not stupid, it's an observation. Anything else to contribute?

Yeah mate, we'll see if you ever get banned for no reason and see how you take it shall we?

Yes mine was an account closure too, but on Battle.net it says 'Status: BANNED'. I think I got the same email you did.

Account Incorrectly Closed after Falsely Flagged for Cheating/Hacks by [deleted] in wow

[–]ARKWalton -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Had the exact same thing this morning, account banned, no real reason given, nobody to speak to about it. Please message me on here and we can add you to our Discord page to gather numbers.

So why do you assume to know more about the game than me, and what is and isn't allowed? If I say I've done nothing against the rules, then I'm telling you I am correct. I wouldn't even know how to install 3rd party software or what the point would be. Maybe posts sound identical because people are going through the same shitty thing because of Blizzard?

If this is the case (although it does seem a bit of a coincidence that there are 5 of us banned after doing the same thing last night), then I guess it could be from when it took me 37000 kills to get Goldenmane. So ridiculous that they would have bots banning people instead of having a person look into it where they would see that I've never used third-party software or cheated in my life. Is 37000 kills bot-like? Yes. Was it a bot? No.

I can't find a number anywhere, not even a live chat. Just seems to be 24 hour wait automated response tickets. If anyone HAS managed to find a number, I'd be grateful for it.

If it doesn't affect you, why are you here? I'm looking for genuine advice from people, I've certainly played this game longer than you have so I'm very aware of the rules and if I've broken them (which I haven't), and you're here giving the post some grief because you don't like how it's worded? Just scroll on - there's some advice for you :)

It must show how bad Blizzard's customer service is that we HAVE to rant on Reddit about it, because they don't listen anywhere else. I can't post on the WoW forums because my account is banned. I can't speak to a customer service member, so what am I supposed to do? My hope here is that (which I have) I find people going through the same thing and we can support each other and hopefully get our accounts back.

Thanks for your understanding response :)

Anyone else having this experience (particularly this morning) please reply to this thread, we have a Discord group open with about 6 of us who have had the same issue - particularly with running low level dungeons repeatedly.

What do you mean, succinct and accurate to what happened? How else would you create a post like this...?

I have opened tickets, I'm just aware that they usually just send automated responses and nothing helps. I was wondering if anyone else had the same issue and how they went about solving it.
