I’ve worked jobs from hours and hours on end and I’ve had nothing to spend it on so I’ve spent over legit 1000$ on league and it got banned, I don’t think it’s right for riot to take you’re money and then if you get banned you just don’t get it back, I think they’re should be a refund thing, am I wrong

Purchasing Riot Points is a non-refundable transaction. It says so in the Client, and it says so on the back of pre-paid Riot Point cards. Once you've purchased Riot Points, the money spent belongs to Riot and they aren't obligated to refund it, particularly not to players who broke the rules of their game to the point of having their account permanently suspended.

If I spent $1000 on my League account, I'd adhere to the rules in order to protect my investment.

You got the Riot Points under the condition that you do not behave like a complete douche. From the start, this was the deal. And it is REALLY not hard to keep on your part. You broke it. Should Riot reward you by giving you a refund? Should all players that stop playing lol beave like you did, so they get a refund?

No, ofc. not. If you didn't like the deal, you should not have done it.

Then in the future I’ll make a video game and make people spend money on it and then get them banned for saying they did something which clearly they didn’t and be a millionaire just like riot games

I’ve worked jobs from hours and hours on end and I’ve had nothing to spend it on

Food? Rent? Transport? Upgrades to your PC? Other games?

I don't see why people even bother to reply if the only things they are going to say are negative and or toxic. This right here is part of the problem with the league community.

Just sue them, im pretty sure you have a good case ^^

If they gave money back for banned accounts it would be like having unlimited refund tokens. People could just flame till they got banned whenever they wanted to switch skins

When you buy food, do you complain and ask the store to give you your money back when you've eaten the food

No you don't, 'cause business doesn't work like that

This game has terms and conditions. You agreed to them. And now your bitching at riot to give you your money back because you broke the rules and got yourself banned? Grow up.

Hey your first half paragraph sounds bad, sorry man, But even if the account was unbanned, you wouldn't be able to access it since rito seems to have thrown away the key to unlocking it with time(they used to), woops. They can let you start from scratch but rip account, you must of been going through some tough times to spend that much, believe me,I've seen a few of you breakdown, and it truly suffering in word forms, expressed strongly, Anyway you should prob learn from this "mistake" and put aside the money for the future, like in a bank for some interest, or doing stupid things like gambling, well Im sure your luck sucks if you lost a 1k account hmm so maybe you car might be needing some parts if it's worn down or house the basics you know accidents, family reunions, friends, games, well maybe you should become wiser after all it's always a problem for future generations

Welp your 2nd half got destroyed by the classic ToS contract, the little fine print in the corner that can be read with only a magnifying glass scenario that we use as an analogy of how tedious reading it really is and that most fools who never read it once before and learn from it eventually fall to it. hmph but I guess it's not your fault, humans are just wrong to begin with racially thinking, even with the bad quality many people become naive and disgusted its pixely black and white vintage self and never ever give it a shot at what the story is really about, with knowledge traits that are quite appealing or terrifying hmm I guess you would say it's Like this,A Successful marriage isn't built upon looks, so why should a video/game too fall apart when majority naively repeat this mistake in fact, some of the worlds greatest masterpieces could be called a happy little accident oof. Here's a nice spy message for you, it wont make up for wards, icons history,only scens ;^) well you can still look it up but here's your bananna bread: Saucy Klepto Impressive Ninja Machop Orge Daddy Lingerie Orphan Lubricant

Yeah ignorance is a bitch huh? Ignorance of how capitalism works, the importance of education, how riots system works. Looks like all of this is coming to bite you in the ass. Working hours on end, probably not really making that much money if you have to work so long... your grammar is terrible so I doubt you've put much priority on educating yourself, hence the working so many hours... you apparently didn't know the rules of this game, so being ignorant of that is hurting you too. Damn. You need to get your shit together bud.

Well, too bad you agreed that they have the right to do that when you created your account.. Don't put money into this game if you're not able to keep an account, it's simple.

sleepysithlord1/10/2018, 1:56:25 PM1 votes

There are two ways to look at it that might make you feel better. Because in my opinion people spamming the ToS doesn't make anyone feel better.

  1. Riot never sells you anything. They are only letting you rent the skins and champions and other things you spend RP on. Now that your account is gone, your rental period is over.

  2. Riot sells you the skin for RP on a per match basis. They charge you every match that you use the skin, that way there is no way to get ripped off in the instance of a ban. However, because Rito are nice guys, they only charge you for the first use of the skin. Every subsequent use is a freebie. Whether you get banned after the 1st time using the skin or 1 millionth, you still aren't paying any more than what you are getting.

Hope that helps!

It's in their terms of use, So they do have the right to ban and take the money.

I don't think it is right for you to agree to a set of terms and then violate those terms repeatedly but that's just my opinion.

ganging up on him when hes right? The sad part is,riot isn't in charge of the bans, and they don't "view" them, that's why there's a system, a very flawed system, you can put as much caps as you want in a sentence and have someone report you for b.s. reasons, like, int'ing or ya know the options,everyone has had that issue and riot knows it needs to change so many people are getting banned and losing their accounts, yes, it does say your'e not entitled to a refund, however, if your'e following the rules and still get reported by someone WHO IS toxic, then what?? its messed up, you can say anything like, hey,bot lane,ping more, or top lane, follow through,and you know it'll be in caps, but then get reported and its like, RIP SUSPENSION, RIGHT? lovely. just had this happen to me, and i followed the rules, but because i've had recent past suspensions and behaviors, and someone reports me, i lose my account for something so stupid, We'll see about that. See, there's a loophole, you have to disobey the rules and show that kind of behavior to get banned or suspended if none are showed and what not, then it obviously shows that riot's ban system is totally bugged and wack, so shoot them a message, they should either unsuspend the permaban, unless they would like to be in court. Because nowhere in that clause does it state , your'e responsible for other's reporting you wrongfully. AND THAT'S, how you can get em.

ZerglingOne11/1/2018, 3:53:31 AM1 votes

Sorry you lost your stuff. But legally it belongs to Riot.

If you can get a new account and get it to honor 5, maybe they'll do a transfer for you via support ticket if you can really prove you've reformed. But I wouldn't count on them agreeing to do so.

But you must be a model citizen. You can't blame and if you don't have anything nice or 100% neutral to say, just drag your chat below your UI. Out of sight out of mind.
