So I'm getting the "failed to get game data from server" error and I've been getting it since monday, I'm pretty sure that I got perma-banned but I've seen others saying that their old trainer name was available again but mine isn't. Is there a chance I'll get access back to my account or are other perma-banned folks also finding that their trainer name is unavailable?
 
I do not think they will recycle your trainer names right away, as it will just *reward* those that botted as they bot their new account. Most games have a LONG holding time before release.
 
"Failed to get game data"

I had the same problem at the same time with my PTC account. I thought I had been perma banned but i have not received any email regarding a ban. Also, it will switch from Failed to get data to the servers are down screen.
Are they sending the email from the pokemon company/niantic or are the just banning people?
I am still not sure what is going on but no one seems to have any answer. Any thoughts?

I have the same problem on two accounts. But one thing is the same: One was botting and turned level 23, since then I got the message 'Failed to get data'. The other account I botted until level 21 and then I just played. Evolved a lot of pokemon to reach level 23. And boom! Same thing happened. I couldn't login anymore! 'Failed to get data'. I'm I banned or what is this?!? Can someone help me?
 
This is the same issue I'm having, it's been going for over a week now and Niantic wont reply to my support ticket about it, I'm just guessing it's a ban and something messed up and didn't trigger them sending the email with it.

Dude! It's a perm ban!

Start a new account and try again. This time, don't bot until they fix it.
 
Yea, I got my email of joy yesterday. F it. New account and see how long this one lasts
