Question about FACEIT ban and starting over after 2 years

05/16/2025 14:35 Paczken#1
Hi,

I received a cheating ban on FACEIT over 2 years ago (May 15, 2023). I know FACEIT bans for cheating usually last a minimum of 2 years, and I'm not expecting my old account to be unbanned.

I have a few questions:

Is it allowed to create a new FACEIT account after more than 2 years?

Do I need to also create a brand new Steam account to avoid ban evasion detection?

Has anyone here successfully returned to FACEIT after a cheating ban without getting banned again?

I just want to play clean now and avoid any automatic ban for ban evasion.

You need a new steam accoun and you should contact support and ask them about that, to avoid any issue

I asked them and i got replay like this all time:
Your ban will remain active for two years and cannot be removed.


If you do/did not evade the ban during this period, you may create a new account once the time has passed. Please be aware that bans are not always immediate; actions taken while the Anti-Cheat was active, even in the past, can still lead to a delayed ban.


Keep in mind that if you have used cheats on your PC, and they modified your operating system or remained active without a restart, they may have been detected even if you were not actively cheating at the time. In such cases, the ban remains in effect, as you are responsible for the integrity of your system.
