    ban occured on 01/29/2025, i submitted an appeal that day, have no idea what i did, have been playing the game the same way since 2009 and never had an issue before, maybe i didnt read a terms of service update and thats my fault, i have waited for over two months to hear back, if my ban is justified then so be it, but i would like a faster response time than this, especially considering i did spend money on the game and was invested in it.

    Subject: Complaint Against Big Viking Games Unfair Account Ban on YoWorld To Whom It May Concern,I am writing to formally submit a complaint against Big Viking Games (BVG) regarding the unjust banning of my YoWorld account. I have been a dedicated player of YoWorld for a long time, and I believe my account was banned unfairly.I have always played safely and respectfully, ensuring that I follow all community guidelines and the game's Terms of Service. I was never involved in scamming, hacking, or any inappropriate behavior, yet my account was suddenly banned without a clear explanation.YoWorld has been an important part of my daily routineit serves as a safe space for relaxation and enjoyment, and I feel unfairly punished for something I did not do. I have already contacted **** support team regarding my ban, but I have either received no proper response or was denied without proper justification.I kindly request that *** reviews my case fairly and provides a proper explanation or reinstates my account. As a paying customer (if applicable), I also believe it is unfair for players to lose access to their accounts without a transparent review process.I would appreciate your assistance in helping me resolve this matter with ***. Thank you for your time and ****************** regards,***** *****,Name in game : Sa lma

    As a yearly VIP Premium member in the game, YoWorld, I was supposed to receive my YoCash (in-game currency) between 10 pm and 11pm CST, September 14, 2023. When I logged on the next morning(September 15th) my account had not been credited so I reached out to BVG via the Help tab and submitted a ticket. I finally received a reply on September 28th from Viking ***** in which she offered excuses but no resolution or indication of when I could expect to be compensated. I replied back to her on September 30th inquiring why the YoCash could not be manually submitted to my account. I also let her know that although my subscription did not expire until November 26, 2023, I had already cancelled it due to this issue. Why pay for something that I do not receive? On October 6th, I again replied to the email from Viking ***** to make her aware that it was nearly time for my October benefits to be added to my account and that I STILL had not received September benefits. Big Viking Game's customer service is severely lacking. When someone financially supports a company faithfully for many years via subscription and MANY YoCash packages, one expects to A: receive what they paid for and B: a timely response to issues that arrise. At this point I either would like what is owed to me whether it be ****** credited to my account (along with the YoCoins that I have missed as well) or a monetary refund for the months of September thru November. I do not believe that I am being unreasonable in my request. Copies of communication are included for BVG's review. If a satisfactory solution cannot or will not be reached, I am prepared to seek alternative legal recourse.
