So after 3 accounts of mine got banned today I decided to have a little fun with a GM on live chat. I botted excessively on those accounts so I knew they would not last anyways. Made a good amount of gold on them so I am happy. But anyways here is the conversation that me and the GM had on live chat! Enjoy!
Gm:
I am here in assist players, there is a whole other team that deals with these types of things so I don't know the details on what they do on their end.
you:
ah
you:
shouldn't i get a refund for that bnet being banned?
you:
cause technically i purchased something and then it was taken from me
you:
Name one product in the US that can be taken from you once you legitimately pay for it. Violations of EULA's and TOS is not grounds to deny a customer use of a product they purchased, it amounts to fraud. On such a grand scale "King Pin" laws would apply, thanks to the RICO Act Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act
Gm:
If it was in normal policy for a refund we would but anything past 2 weeks will not get refunded. You used that account for 2 years so you do not get a refund for that.
you:
read above plz
you:
Blizz can influence quarterly sales by banning people for no reason, no evidence, only their word....thus forcing users to purchase new accounts. That is Racketeering !
Gm:
I am not legal, if you think this is in violation, you need to contat a lawyer.
you:
i would like to see the evidence placed again wow4
you:
it is a violation of law
you:
yes
Gm:
Then you need tocontact a lawyer, I can no longer dixcuss this if you want to take legal action.
Gm:
discuss*
you:
blizzard can ban you from live servers, they can't deny you access to a product you payed for. Which means they can make alternative servers for you to play your banned accounts on should you choose and if they wish to pay for the additional servers and cost, could be detrimental when the game has past it's hayday.
Gm:
It does say in the EULA you agree to that we can close an account for any reason or no reason at all.
you:
i didn't agree to the eula i never seen it
Gm:
So with that, is there anything else I can help you with?
you:
just wondering when the server will be up that i can use
Gm:
All servers are up right now.
you:
no the one for my banned account
you:
did you read my payment, it says I can get refunded for fraudulent purchases
Gm:
I am not discussing your banned account any further, I am disconnecting this chat if there is nothing else I can help with.
You:
