Error 326 Character Locked
-
what is really annoying is that they don't even contact me at all after I give them the infos, no word from them in like 40 hours1 -
Sycosis✭I understand they are people and they are swamped BUT we are customers and as paying customers we deserve to have quality customer service. This is one of the tests Zenimax needs to pass otherwise the game is going to fall flat within a year.1
-
indeed.. I currently feel completely ignored by the customer support team, no follow-up, no support, no communication.. just sad0
-
Magikarp✭✭✭Yep. This is the 3rd day I've had this issue and not a single helpful thing has been said or done.0
-
I'm at 36+ hours of having my character locked. My name originally was Zlatan Son of God. Not really sure how that is considered offensive in a game where there are Gods, Daedric Princes, and the like. So far I have sent 4 or 5 emails, one in game bug report, and 2 requests for a phone call and have not heard one single word back from them. Not even a "We're sorry, we don't know whats going on but we are working on it." Or a "We are sending this to the group that deals with this" kind of thing. Obviously I want my character unlocked, but at the very least i would like some acknowledgment that they know I am locked out.0

Unfortunately at this rate, you will very likely not get any of that

Swinns✭I just got locked out as well, No Email or in game mail to let me know exactly why or to tell me how long its gonna be.0 -
I was just booted and asked to change name. Then it locked my character out anyway as well.
Although the character name was "Yunalesca The War Wh ore". It is a bit disappointing there is no reason in the kick or lock. Shouldn't have to contact support regarding this.Edited by jcstoddsb14_ESO on April 5, 2014 9:26PM0 -
Been locked out for about 2 days now. Customer Support wasn't helpful at all so I decided to just start a new toon0

Hey guys, finally got an answer from the Customer support team here it is :We hereby like to inform you that we have initiated a rename of your character. Please be aware that names that violate the below are in violation to our Rules of Conduct.To ensure a respectful and secure atmosphere for all our players we cannot allow such character names.
These can include, but are not limited to:
Sexual Remarks
Sexual Acts
Historical Figures
Mass Murderers
Names of real people or fictive characters under a trademark protection
Hateful, and excretory in nature
Your suspension on your account was for 72 hours. Once the 72 hours are up, you will be able to log in again.
So for everyone getting that ERROR CODE 326 : CHARACTER IS CURRENTLY LOCKED, you won't be able to log onto it for the next 72 hours for name violation.
Shoutout for ZOS_SHANNONM! thanks for the meet up with the costumer support!Edited by marc.ledouxb16_ESO on April 5, 2014 9:55PM0 -

War *** is pretty offensive imo..1 -
Got a call from them. Girl said that there weren't any holds on my account and that she was going to do her best to get this fixed soon. Didn't have an ETA or any idea why it was locked out but said that getting players back in game is their highest priority.0
-
Sycosis✭i was told there was no hold or bans or suspensions on my account. and that it would be back up within 24 hours well its been about 48 and they wont answer back hrm.............0

72 hours lock as punishment ??? Are we in school ??? I am 34 years old, and did nothing to be punished, its not my fault that zenimax considers the animal fox in german offensive (but they have the animal in the game and in the german translation its the same as my name was. LOL. What an offensive game, isnt it ?
).
Really hope you guys get unlocked soon1 -

Agreed. And a 72 hour for a FIRST TIME OFFENSE. That does not make any sense.

yeah, i do agree the 72 hours suspensions is quite harsh from them.. since you are forced to change your name after you get booted, which in itself is already annoying to lose my name (which I've been using for a while now..). Oh well if i can play, I won't say anything..0

Sounds like they don't quite know what is going on.0 -
Magikarp✭✭✭73 hours, still locked. And still not a single helpful solution from support. Pretty great way to spend 80 dollars, I guess I'll make sure everyone knows just how great it is
0 -
regissSoul Shriven80+ hours, still locked.
I wouldn't have even minded time wasted farming racial styles, thousands sunk in inv space, 17k horse if only they communicated clearly about lock and it's duration. Would've simply made new char immediately instead of hanging in this limbo, falling behind in trait research and getting support tickets ignored or replied to with completely irrelevant information. Nothing ever came out of getting it escalated to special team couple days ago either.0 -

Same here, it has now been over 80 hours of this issue, and not one thing done about it. I'm wondering if it's just easier to ask for a refund, since it seems that is what they are hinting to.

Bump. This is quickly becoming $100+ poorly spent. 80+ hours of being locked out of a character for no good reason is beyond ridiculous.0

LMSavage✭Going on almost 96 hours now. Ninety-six. 4 days. I absolutely need this character back, it has all my CE extras on it. I feel like I've been robbed.0
-
Krogith✭I'm having the same issue. I will hit my 72 hour mark in a few hours so we will see what happens. Not getting my hopes up though from what others have said on here. Multiple emails back and forth with support and still locked. So frustrating!0
-
Hey guys, same problem here, my char is locked for nearly a week also now. Have yours been unlocked yet?
Im starting to think they can't unlock it because of some kind of bug in the system.0 -
regissSoul ShrivenThat shouldn't stop them from letting us know. Being ignored for a week, unable to remake character cause of slight hope I might get it back is.. yeah.Edited by regiss on April 10, 2014 1:15AM0
