    Epic Games Account Verification Issues - PLEASE HELP!!!!


    Epic Games have put a ban on my account for no apparent reason what so ever and will not give me details why. The state I am unable to verify my account, however I have given them all information possible that they have requested. Some of the information
    requested is impossible for me to give them:

    1. Your public IP address(es) (IPv4) - my internet provider does not provide a static IP address but a dynamic one, therefore everytime the Xbox is disconnected from the wired in internet, it changes. The internet is not the best in the rurual area I live
      so we often disconnect the Xbox from the internet cable, for example if we are trying to watch a streamed show on Netflix. You can only do one thing at once with our internet. I gave Epic Games an IP address each time I responded to them, which would have
      been right at the time I sent it. I also gave them screen shots from the search I carried out on my Xbox to show I was searching from that device and the IP address that was revealed at the time.
    2. I also didn't have the exact creation date of my account, as I first set up the account after downloading the app to my Ipad but knew it was in 2018 at some point. However, I was able to give a more accurate date of when the account was used to start playing
      regularly on the Xbox. This was Christmas December 2018. I'd never received any emails from Epic Games at the time I set up the account on the Ipad, so could not search for an email confirming the date it was set up. I can only assume that if I did get an
      email like this, my IT provider at the time filtered it out as spam and I am unable to find it via any searches. My IT provider is through work and has now changed so I would not be able to ask them this.
    3. I did not have, or ever have had an Invoice ID from Epic Games, as all my purchases are made through Microsoft. I provided them with a few examples of copies of invoices from Microsoft, including the last one to date. I logged into my Epic Games Account
      and provided a screen shot of my payment history, which clearly stated none, as I have only ever purchased through Microsoft.
    4. I gave them the correct location of where these purchases were made, my actual home address in fact, which I dont think you could get any more precise?
    5. I provided the correct display name for when I played the game. I also provided them with screen shots of me logged into the Epic Games Store showing my account details, email address, display name etc.
    6. I gave them the information of the credit card that was used for my purchases via Microsoft and pointed out that the location of the purchases were made at the same address as the billing address on the card. I also pointed out that the last email invoice
      I'd received from Microsoft for purchases I had made in Fortnite gave an order number and the last 4 digits of the credit card used, which matched the last 4 digits I had stated to satisfy this requirement.
    7. I could not give the exact last date of my login, but the date I gave might be wrong by only one day.
    8. We only use the Xbox now but previously we used my Ipad.
    I have now completely hit a brick wall with Epic Games after 3 or 4 times of trying to satisfy their requirements with my information.

    Has anyone else ecperienced these issues with Epic Games?

    Does anyone have any advice on whjat I should dpo?

    I would be extremely grateful if anyone could help as we have achievements and have spent money on V-Bucks, skins etc and I'm reluctant to loose it all.

    :)

    Epic Games Account Verification Issues - PLEASE HELP!!!!

    I have contacted Epic Games on several occasions now over the last few weeks and they will not tell me as they claim I cannot verify my account. This is not true as I have provided them with the information they have requested that actually exists. I feel
    like I am going round and round in circles now on a wild goose chase and I will never get this issue resolved. I have spent a lot of money on Fortnite via the Microsoft store. The purchases were brokered to me via Microsoft and never Epic Games. Therefore,
    I was hoping that Microsoft would be able to help me in some way, as it is Microsoft that has taken my money and I do not have what I have paid for and I have no explanation as to why?

    Epic Games Account Verification Issues - PLEASE HELP!!!!

    Game developers have the ability to build game-specific security into their titles and enforce their community policies independent of the greater Xbox Live system. This is often true for games that feature extensive player-created
    content or have robust and active online communities. Since every game is different, the method by which you are notified of a game ban varies by developer.

    Game-specific bans fall outside of the xbox live service scope, and Xbox Support cannot provide insight into game-specific enforcement actions. For specific information about a game ban, please contact the appropriate developer or publisher.

    Help! Stream Snipers or Hackers?

    Hello There,

    Sorry for the issue with your account and such. You will continue to have to get with Epic games for the account two step verification. We will be locking this thread as it is a developer issue and not Xbox issue. For the stream Sniping you can go to twitch
    for tips and help there.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    Authenticator app Security Code?

    In that case you have enabled Two Step Verification in your Epic Account. Did you add your Epic Account to an authenticator App like Google Authenticator? In order to enable Two Step Verification you will have to link an authenticator and enter a code from
    your phone authenticator the first time to activate Two Step Verification.

    Also check your E-mails, if you got the code that way.

    If you are unable to authenticate, find the recovery codes you (hopefully) downloaded and stored/printed out.

    If all else fails, you'll have to contact the Epic Games support, as this is an Epic Account issue, not a Xbox related one.

    I am having an issue linking my Xbox account to switch

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello JayC095, on the Xbox side you can check if there is already an Epic account linked to your Microsoft account.

    To do so, click on the link below and log in with your Microsoft account that you use to play and see the services that are linked.

    Microsoft Consent

    https://microsoft.com/consent

    If you want to do this verification on the Epic Games side, you will have to log in to the Epic Game website with the email account you used to create the login, and do this account link verification.
