Why Was My COD Account Unjustly Locked, and Why Didn’t I Get

Recently, I had an incredibly frustrating and confusing experience on the X platform, which I have been using for years and where I invested countless hours building my profile and connections. Here’s my story, and I must ask: What kind of procedure is this?

The Start of the Problem

Out of the blue, I discovered that I couldn’t log into my COD account. There was no prior warning, notification, or explanation as to why my access was restricted. I tried reaching out to customer support, but all I received were automated responses that provided no clear answers or steps to resolve the situation.

Five Days in Limbo

For five long days, I was locked out of my own account. This period was incredibly stressful and frustrating, as I feared for the fate of everything I had built on the platform: my connections, my characters, my saved content, and my entire community presence.

When I Finally Returned… Or Did I?

On the fifth day, I received a notification that my account was reinstated. My relief, however, was short-lived. When I logged in, I realized that this wasn’t the account I had worked so hard to build over the years. All my friends were gone, my carefully developed characters had vanished, and all my data seemed to have been wiped out. It was as if I had been handed a completely new account, with no trace of my previous one.

What Kind of Process Is This?

I can’t help but ask: how can something like this happen on a platform we trust with our data?

  • Why was my account locked without explanation?
  • Why did it take five days to regain access?
  • How is it possible that my account wasn’t restored to its original state but was essentially reset?
  • And most importantly, what kind of customer service process leaves a user so unsupported in such a critical situation?

What Do I Want?

Clearly, my goal is for the platform to thoroughly investigate this issue and restore my original account. Years of hard work, connections, and memories cannot simply disappear without a trace. Furthermore, I believe X needs to provide a much more transparent and user-friendly resolution process for situations like this.

To other users, my advice is to be cautious and regularly back up your important data, because you never know when something like this might happen.

If anyone has had a similar experience, please share your story – perhaps together, we can achieve more. But to X: what kind of procedure is this, and when can I expect to get back everything I’ve worked for over the years?

Hey luye,

Suspensions and bans can be a little complicated due to the involvement of two studios.

However, you mention that your profile, essentially everything stored about your account, was changed. CoD accounts are handled solely by Activision.
