You'll need to speak to EA to do that but you probably wont be able to add any other alternative EA account to your current Steam one now.

Yes I’m sure it was “out of context”

Why do you have to be so negative

For EA to permanently ban you for a communications infraction it has to be so severe or you have so many previous infractions that it warrants that

Don’t lie and say it was “out of context” which is an excuse you want to use to not actually take responsibility for your actions.

And this is the kind of “out of context” stuff that you were using in chat no doubt.

contact EA Support unlink EA account in steam. after that tell them delete EA banned account. then you go steam reset the game permanently then start new game on steam, I don’t know if work or not. I just try best to help you.

Yall seriously ganging up on this guy, i was permanently banned for saying "Stupid ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Americans" as an American in a party chat with two of my friends, one of which from Canada and the other also an American. My only previous infraction was a year earlier and apparently was only for saying ♥♥♥♥. EA chat rules are strict AF so I completely believe this guy saying that they took it out of context.
Thank you bro. most of these guys are manchildren who probably work for EA so atleast theres somebody backing me up. still havent found a fix as ea doesnt ban ea accounts but i thank you for your support
There was literally only one person in this thread that questioned the ban...

As far as a solution, it has to be done on EA's side, not Steam as Steam does not have access to EA's servers. This was stated in post #1.

Can you even login to your EA account?

Yes, although it only gives me the option to download the data from it, but not let me unlink it through the account portal on website. also does not work on origin/ea app.

I asked because if you can login, you can use their support.

At the support page, put in any game (use the game you want to play, that would work). You will be eventually be given the option to chat after selecting several drill downs.

https://help.ea.com/en/contact-us/

Pick the game or product you need help with.
Pick the platform that you play on.
Choose the Topic you need help with.
Select your Issue.
Click Select contact option.

I just made this, took like 10 seconds...

Dude, I got banned for the same reason. I come from a black community, so we use the n word in a way as if we were to say homie or dude. Well I said that in chat because my mic wasn't working and EA took it up their ass and banned for my 1st ever offense.

I guess the crappy treatment comes along with the crappy rep and game management they have.

Using racist words in games of any kind is always a big risk and best not to use them even if you are using them with a small group of people.
