Beyond the racial slur aspect, which is sad when it happens, if you lost Tel Var stones, then you technically participated in PvP as it can only be lost in IC, which is a PvPvE area.
As for being reported because else used racial slurs. Zenimax can see the chat, so that should not be an issue and probably a good point to report them for their racist behavior.

I didn't participate in PvP at all i just watched it and asked if I could be let by as I don't want to participate ion PvP they all attacked me and said racial slurs. Doesn't change the fact that i was harassed and racial slurred, and no I wont report theme as i now Zenimax won't do anything same person 4th time in a row. That person reported me and I will most likely be falsely punished for it but whatever not the first time I have been picked on at this point.

Surely the company can access the conversation and sort it out.

The problem is that is called denying access what i did say earlier and yet got treated poorly over. if A PvP player can have access to the whole game as they see it why can't my character have that same free access to the game with no issues.

The only way this could honestly be resolved is for Zos to create a non-PvP instance of IC, but they'd need to remove Telvar gains from that instance so Telvar farmers didn't abuse it. You guys could roleplay to your heart's content in there with no PvP to worry about.
The second they accused you of nonsense and started being racist, you should have reported the player and saved screenshots of the chat box as proof.
TBH if you are not in stealth and just out in the open in IC, you're just asking to lose your Tel Var. Prioritize dead districts for cashing in your Tel Var. Might need to hop into Cyrodiil while you have immunity up while traveling between the outer/inner area of the districts, then port back into a different IC camp.
I remember a comment someone said while I just started playing in Cyrodiil "go back to PvE." Me and some randoms were just trying to recapture a resource and we got zerged down for our efforts. Salty whispers are quite common in a PvP environment even if you're not doing anything of note. My advice is to go offline while in PvP land so you don't get whispered random toxicity. Leave the chat box open so you can see if there is a situation that you need to avoid ex: "two nightblades ganking at lumber." Obviously toxicity can also come from your own faction, which seems to be your situation. Best to just put the player on your ignore list so they can keep shouting into the wind while you focus on what you're trying to accomplish.

Sadly yes, it is and denial to areas of the game by the community itself is also just how the game is anymore for most part. It is sad but how it is anymore what is sad is that it is being done by that community itself and then that same community blames others for PVP in the state it is anymore.

I already put that person on the ignore list the fact it still happened is the issue and needs to be addressed

I'm not buying it.
Goes into PvP, gets mad about being targeted, gets called racial slurs yet won't report them.
Seems like you probably did something report worthy back to them. Yet come here and expect blind support from people under the guise of "those bad toxic pvpers hurt me"

When I'm in IC (or Cyrodiil, for that matter...) and someone looks as though they are a farmer/quester then I'm leaving them alone unless they attack me first.
When I'm in an organized group I will also call out for us to ignore obvious questers (though sometimes people don't always listen to directions...).
So I'm sorry that you had a bad experience but please lay the blame where it is due - at the feet of the person you actually interacted with.

Also, that wasn't the issue by the way, the fact i wasnt even participating in PVP and got treated poorly as a result is the issue.
I've done a lot of pvp over like 6 years and only had hate mail like half a dozen times.
I'm pretty chill but most people in Cyrodiil and especially the IC just attack any enemy they see without even thinking about it. I don't hate on them, killing players is the basic objective of those zones.
