Perma IP Banned Lifted, (Not Account or Temp IP Bans)

[spyder753]

Has anyone been perma IP Banned and then emailed Niantic saying you are someone else trying to use that same internet connection to play the game and couldn't?

Like say you live in Syria and you need to use a VPN to play, but can't because they block the VPN. I think IP perma bans are done by hand as to not have things like this, "Pokemon Go User Gets An Entire Country Banned From Game" happen.

I am not talking about account bans or temp ip bans, do not post about that in this thread please. Has anyone had luck getting a perma IP ban lifted?


Thanks!

As far as I know they do not permanently ban single IP-addresses but rather ban ranges belonging to specific providers and therefore wouldn't lift the ban from a single IP-address in that range. I would assume the only way for Niantic to lift such bans is in discussion with the service provider/owner of that IP-range.

Yes, okay, this would make sense with 3 of my France IP's being banned and all my other countries being safe. Thanks for your input.
