Refund after perma ban? (Not Me)

Coat·1/27/2018, 4:32:17 PM·2 votes·3,222 views

Before i start, no i'm not the one that was perma banned nor will i ever.

Ok lets cut to the chase. My close friend was being toxic in game after a 2 week ban and ended up getting perma banned 100% deserved. Afterwards when he told me he said he got a partial refund 800 ($800) and claimed he got a notification saying he got a refund. I really doubt this though and thinking he might be messing with me. Some major variables of his claim include:

-How will they know what account to refund it too? -I've never heard of anyone receiving a refund after a perma banned?

  • Isn't it it voilating the TOU by being extremely toxic and why would Riot give a refund to a complete jerk who violated their own game rules? So theres alot of questions if hes messing with me or not so, preemptive thank you for the answers!

Edit: Hes canadian i heard like koreans have your credit card of something connected to your accc is that the same with canadians? im not sure.

Most likely he is fucking with you. Unless he is doing charge backs which would be considered fraud most likely in this case.

There is no refund. He lied to you. The End

There should be no perma bans ever for something you have put money into. Take away chat privileges and ranked play only leave open blind and arram, let them stew and hopefully they will calm down and earn their privileges back but never perma ban. also make a game where people can be as toxic as they want some people need to take it out somewhere and when your climbing silver and get 2 games 10 mins in with afks and the team doesnt remake you suffer because there is nothing you can do, and hamstringing people to adhere to a behavior policy when they are crapped on due to something they cant control is just as wrong as being toxic.

your friend is entirely entitled to a refund

riot will threaten legal action but will NOT go through with it

they have no legal grounds because all rp "purchases" are actually donations because you never own the Rp or the account based on the TOS

/e don't let riot bully your friend out of his money

the bigger issue is that he spent money on this abomination in the first place

he most likely went to his credit card company to get the refund. my friend did this he got all the money he spent on game with in a 6 month period from when he placed the dispute. ( about 400 dollars). to be clear riot will never give u a refund but what they dont say is that your credit card company is more then willing to dispute charges and get money that u spent recently on the game back.

I think if we got everyone together that's been permabanned with purchases on their account, we might be able to get a nice little class action going. They shouldn't be able to get away with taking people's money and then destroying what the people bought based on Riot's whim.

I have no idea about Canada, but I know to sign up in Korea they need a social security number. but anyway, he most likely pulled some chargebacks, which is how he got banned (that's a form of fraud btw)

Impossible, it's written in the TOS :

2.2. What happens if my account is terminated? (No LoL for you.)

If your account is terminated, you’ll no longer have access to it, including any of the associated data or content (e.g., champions, skins, Riot Points, etc.).** You’ll not be entitled to any refunds and we’ll have no liability to you.** We also reserve the right to terminate any other accounts you may have created, as well as your access to any other Riot Services (also without any refunds or liability to you).
