Hi guys, I'm one of the, I hope few, lucky ones that got banned for syncing trophies of not purchased games. How do I at least know if my account has been permanently or temporarily suspended? The strange thing is that I can log in with my consoles just fine using my phone's mobile data connection. And if get unbanned, how can I solve the problem since I can't delete my synced trophies? Thanks in advance for any support provided.
Ps: insults won't help anyone, I posted this also as warning for other people.
Pps: why can't I log in with another account I have on my ps4?

Some people think it's just a temporary IP ban, which is why you could login with another internet source.

Try resetting your router to obtain a new IP address, if that works then you know it's just an IP ban. If you can't obtain a different IP (some ISPs do that), try a proxy server to see if it works. If it does, you know it's an IP ban.

I couldn't manage to connect to psn through SKFU's proxy server, but it could be due to my internet provider having a static ip I think, since I'm still able to connect with my phone's mobile data connection. Let's wait and see what happens

why do you sync a PSN only games? you should play and sync games that released on cartridge too, so sony won't know if you played a psn version or a cartridge version, i always check the game i wanna play, if it's a PSN only or not.

@Alessandro98 If you try to enter at https://account.sonyentertainmentnetwork.com/login.action on your pc browser and can't even see the site because it throw a 403 kind of error (access forbidden) then you were IP Banned. Had this happen with me last year (my ISP is allocating lots of people into a NAT, sharing a public IPv4 among them), it was a hassle to get another IP that wasn't banned.

Aren't you afraid of facing a more serious ban eventually? Anyway already today the ban seems to have disappeared...

Yeah it was a mistake I won't repeat, I will keep an account just for homebrew and another one legit

Yeah it was definitely a ip ban but the situation seems to be solved now luckily. Got my router's ip unbanned today. Just one day in hell and it was over.
Thanks to everyone for the support

yea probably, but its not like i have to synch trophies every day/week.
You shouldnt at all :rofl2: Thats just a stupid idea imo.. Thats basically you calling sony and saying "hey heres my system id and psn! Im pirating on your console lel" If you want trophies so bad, then buy the darn game. Sony wont hesitate to wipe all of your trophies :rofl2:

like 75% of the games i play i own as a cartridge, i just wasnt able to synch a long time and when i booted a game the first time it told me "do you want to delete trophies for game "random game" to set up new trophies?" and i have a few plats which i dont want to loose. just synching once removed the message

When the new henkaku came out and i updated my vitas it automatically signed them into psn Then Friday my son said he couldnt get on psn. I panicked. Im sure it was an ip block because another ps4 on another account and a ps3 wouldnt sign either. I couldnt even sign in on an ipad that was on the same wifi as the ps4's and ps3. Then Saturday it was working then Sunday not working Then yesterday working again. Its crazy. I feel certain its because the whole vita thing. I signed the vitas out and have no plans to sign back in to psn. I dont want my son blocked permanently.

thats not good, you probably have the automatic trophy synching enabled in psn settings. this is why you got softbanned

if i use game dumps then usually just to try the game out. and if i enjoy the game then i go buy it
