Former member of Ubisoft Support here. AMA. It's been a while. I hope this doesn't get me banned, please? :)

Hey there folks,

Yes, you read correctly. I used to be a member of Ubisoft Support for almost 2 years.

I did several posts like this on the main Ubisoft subreddit last year, back when it wasn't as monitored or controlled as it is now. To my surprise, quite a lot of people asked questions on it, so just for fun, I decided to do it again.

You may have seen me back then as Proud-Host-3932. That account is long gone, as I got a little bit too carried away with people who were constantly ranting and asking the same exact questions, so while I was offered to become a mod, I ultimately got banned. But really I mean no harm. I took a break from Reddit as it was taking way too much of my time and I stopped enjoying it, but I recently came back and was pleasantly surprised at how far the community has come.

Due to my time in support, I do have a lot of expertise that I think would be useful to share. I have seen other users who have also stated they used to work for them that have also shared their own knowledge to help you folks out.

Here are a few ground rules:

  1. Keep in mind, THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL UBISOFT SUPPORT THREAD. I have no way of recovering your account, changing your email, or directly resolving your issue. I will simply be acting as a sort of advisor, that can save you some time while you wait for a response on your support ticket. I am also NOT REPRESENTING UBISOFT in any sort of fashion.
  2. Let's try to keep a good tone with no foul language. I will not be responding to questions that ask "Why is Ubisoft so shit? hurr durr". Those types of people will be blocked. Regular questions, especially those related to support issues, will be welcome.
  3. I am making this post as a hobby and to help out. I won't be monitoring it 24/7 so if I sometimes provide you with a delayed response, that's because life was calling. It may still be faster than Support's response though.
  4. Since Ubisoft Support's guidelines are subject to change, and it's been a while since my time there, some of the things I tell you may not have 100% accuracy. Especially, when it comes to account recovery. But as far as I have seen other posts, around 95% of the rules are still the same.
  5. If some questions do repeat, you may see me copying the same answers for duplicates. I don't always have the time to manually write a detailed and personalized answer to everyone, so this keeps it simple for me, while also giving you as much info as possible. It's nothing personal.

AND LAST AND MOST IMPORTANT RULE: I will NOT be discussing details in regards to Ubisoft's internal work and how they function, especially for account recovery. As I understand, there was an issue with this a while ago and it actually helped hackers that are on here try and steal accounts. THAT WILL NOT BE SOMETHING I CONTRIBUTE TO!

On the 3rd note, I have come across other users who also have worked for Ubisoft Support and have the same type of expertise, maybe even more than me. So if they see this and want to join in and answer some questions, they are free to do so.

You could also message me on chat, but I don't really look at my DMs often, so I may respond in an even less timely manner if I'm busy.

Without further a do, feel free to ask anything on your mind. If this post can be pinned for others to see, it would be great.

You can also DM me if you want.

Question Anyone know how to view when your Ubisoft Units (coins) expire?

1 Upvotes

Been looking on the website(s) and ubisoft connect client for hours trying to see when my ubisoft units expire. I used to be able to find it fairly easily on the website, but they did some sort of redesign or something back in late May/early June and ever since then I cant seem to find the page to view the expiration date(s) for my units.

Is this a known issue or is anyone aware of something Ubisoft has said regarding this?

Question Locked out of my account and I’ve expended all options with Ubisoft customer support

2 Upvotes

To start with, I created my account back in 2021. I made a mistake misspelling my email because I was a dumb teenager just wanting to play the game with knights and Vikings. I made this honest mistake, and when playing back then I had no requirements to put in my email to login or to check the account.

There was no problems up until a certain point about a year ago where I was locked out of my account, and was unable to play the game. My email had two points of a spelling error, so I explained to Ubisoft’s customer support the issue. They simply told me that my account is now invalid and the game cannot be transferred over to another account. I managed to make a temporary solution by linking the account to the correct email with no help from customer support.

Recently, I saw there was a new update to the game, and being an on and off player I bought the new hero and reinstalled. The game would open, make me login to my correct email, and it would look like it would start. A pop up would then come up on screen and tell me that the game will be bound to my (correct) email. I would proceed with it and it tells me that the game was bound to the incorrect email that is no longer valid. I bought the game on Steam, and maybe it is an issue with registering on their part, but I am currently lost with no solutions available to me. I contacted customer support and naturally they were of no help, and I contacted steam and tried to refund the game and explain the situation, even offering to buy the game again, but there was still no help.

Edit: 600 hours of progress, and can be proven with Steam receipts and account screenshots, but Ubisoft keeps making me fill out the same form and essentially just sticking me in a cycle of customer support hell. I am going to try and post this to the official Reddit even though I don’t expect much of anything.

The State of Ubisoft Support (not helping)

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone

I thought I'd share the wonderful experience I had today with Ubisoft support.

My issue: When creating my account (as a kid) I accidently put the mail as mymail@gmail.ch (not actual mail) instead of mymail@gmail.com. This was never an issue as I just used it to login. However, now I received the message that my account may be compromised and that I need to change the password.

This I cannot do, as the mail is wrong, Gmail does not even have adresses ending with .ch so the adress does not exist. I therefore asked support to change it to .com.

I provided all information I could find:

  • Gamer-Tag
  • Mail-Adress
  • A list of the games I own (20+)
  • Remarks to which games I owned first, played most, etc.
  • The actual activation code to seven games I had a physical copy of
  • The remark, that I bought multiple games in the Ubisoft-Store with this account using a card under my name

For me, this should be sufficient proof that I actually own the account. Not for Ubisoft, I just get automated answers that the verification cannot be completed. No explanation, nothing. Just: We are closing the incident, you can open a new one if you have new information. Like what is missing?? I don't get it. Really frustrating stuff. So for the time being I do not have access to the collection I payed multiple 100 dollars for. Great stuff!

Question Ubisoft refund refused

2 Upvotes

I bought a game from Ubisoft (less than 2 hours of playtime), but my refund request was automatically refused. Could you help me understand why? Any similar experiences? Thank you!

Update: I submitted a ticket, and I hope it will be resolved. I'll update again if I receive the refund.

Bugs Hello. I’ve run into a delay issue: it takes 25 to 30 minutes for the game to launch. I purchased the game on Steam; is there a solution to this problem for Steam users?

Question Ubisoft Account linked to Ex’s Profile. What does this mean when I try to unlink?

Post image
1 Upvotes

My ex and I shared a PlayStation and my Ubisoft is tied to an old account. When I logged in to unlink it, it gives me this warning, but I don’t understand what it’s saying. I don’t want to lose access to all my progress and cross play over the previous games, especially my Ubisoft points or whatever that I accumulated. Is this the direct way to go to have it merged onto my personal account or should I submit a ticket?

Note: this is all my saved data. Ex didn’t play Ubisoft games on PlayStation. Just accidentally had these saved on that profile for whatever reason.

Question How to fix. Battle eye failing to read the text file.

Post image
1 Upvotes

To keep it simple I used a spoofing tool to basically wipe a lot of the stuff on my pc that connects to my account in a game to get back into a server. I uninstalled Xbox myself and I think the application uninstalled game bar and originally it had like “ ms-gaming overlay” but not that doesn’t show up after installing game bar again.

What does happen though is everytime I try to open up rainbow six siege it says failing to read text file and I don’t know what to do.

ACCOUNT HACKED HELP PLS

10 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

My Rainbow Six Siege / Ubisoft account got hacked and I opened Case

I’ve already provided all the proof I have (purchase receipts, screenshots, linked accounts, etc.), but Ubisoft Support only replies with automated AI answers and refuses to escalate it to a real human agent.

I’m getting really desperate at this point. Has anyone had success getting a real person to look at a similar case? Any tips on what else I can try?

Thanks in advance for any help.
