Never found out the reason but could be owed money to Sony or something because me and a relative did use to buy stuff in the past without parental permission but that was a long time back but I don’t know. 27 minutes ago, DaivRules said: CFW identified itself to PSN, Sony banned the console I have never jail breaked for a game.

CFW is pretty much the only reason Sony has historically banned the consoles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowxSakura Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 You should have received an email from sony explaining the reasoning of your console getting banned. Had a friend get their console banned about a month ago with the reasoning of "illegal use of pirated software" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the truth is that I don’t know the reason and I did ask Sony via Twitter a few weeks back but they told me that Twitter basically wasn’t the right place to ask about this.

Live chat and other contacting methods are also available here. For US: https://support.playstation.com/s/article/Information-on-Banned-Accounts-and-Consoles?language=en_US. Also this is the gateway to the live chat option. ++++++++++ 1 hour ago, NERVergoproxy said: What about your brothers PS3? ..maybe see this: On 26.6.2020 at 5:28 PM, BrettyBoy said: Even my brother’s PS3 is banned.

ATTYYYYY487 Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 I have a feeling that key info has been left out of this thread. Sony will never have the right to just ban your console outright for no reason. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't simply do it in a very premeditated way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
