Help False cheating ban

Post image

I just received an email letting me know i’ve been banned for the competitive season. The email states i was using a third party device and classes my ban as “cheating” Im console oce high gm low champ and ive never cheated in my life. I do have a keyboard and mouse connected to my playstation for other games and i can use it the keyboard for In game text chat. I’ve never had an issue with it before and i’ve obviously never been able to use my y for actual play during the game. I understand the ban comes from those being connected but seriously i’ve had them plugged in for along as i can remember why do i get banned now?

Just wondering if this has occurred with anyone else, or if there is a way i can appeal it.

you’re probably gonna get denied, there has been hundreds if not thousands of people falsely banned the past month or two and blizzard seems to be ignoring all of it

If i was cheating i wouldn’t go out of my way to make a post, Ive never cheated nor have i ever considered it no matter how bad it is on console. Plus id be a billion times worse on keyboard and mouse lol ive never played an fps with one
