 My account was Hacked!

It is highly unlikely that someone gains unauthorised access to a Miniclip account, or change its email unless that account is Facebook connected, as account changes can only be done by our Support team.
If someone else played using your account, we recommend you to change your password. Here you will find a link that you can use to change the password (doesn't work for accounts only connected to Facebook).
If your account is Facebook connected and your Facebook account is compromised, that is not of Miniclip's responsibility. However, if this happens, please change your Facebook account password as fast as possible. If needed, check the guidelines how to behave in those occasions.
Also be sure to end session of every device that is not yours right after changing the password.
If your Gmail is having an issue like this, you can reset password or check the guidelines about how to recover a hijacked account.
Take into consideration that forced sign out from the game is not a guarantee that you can fully recover your account, so always remember to log out whenever you use a device that is not your own and do not share your account with no one.
Once changes are applied to your Facebook or Google account, they will automatically be applied to all games you use it.
Please remember that you are responsible for your account and you should not share the account details with other people.

 Using Mods, Cheats or Exploits

Mods, exploits or any type of program that is not from Miniclip and modifies the game in any way is considered Cheating.
If you are looking for Mods or Cheats be aware that Miniclip takes these matters very seriously, any and all actions of Exploiting, Cheating or Hacking have consequences and are acted upon.
Actions may go form a Warning up to Permanent Banning your account.
And you do not want your account Permanently Banned because you will never be able to play with it again!
We strongly urge you to read our Terms and Conditions https://www.miniclip.com/games/page/en/terms-and-conditions/
 “You may be banned or have your account suspended or terminated if we think that you have not followed the Rules or if we believe in our sole discretion that you have behaved inappropriately whilst using our Services. In addition, if we believe you have engaged in cheating then we may remove any applicable Miniclip Coins from your account.”
When you use any means to gain advantage against your opponents or exploit the game disrupting its normal course, you are ruining the game experience for all other players and that is something we, at Miniclip, will not stand for.
Miniclip would also very much like to thank everyone that reports any type of program or exploit of our games.
We are very glad to see our community grow and help us make our games safe and enjoyable for everyone!

Can't Upgrade Guest Account! (8 Ball Pool)

 Can't Upgrade Guest Account! (8 Ball Pool)

Are you receiving a message saying you can't upgrade your 8 Ball Pool guest account for some reason?

Upgrading your 8 Ball Pool guest account as soon as possible is the best way to keep it safe and avoid losing it, as such we definitely recommend you upgrade it!

If you are trying to upgrade it and are receiving an error message, this could be due to a couple of reasons:

  • The email address you are trying to us has already been used for another Miniclip account;
  • The username is not unique - be sure to choose a unique username with no special characters (you can use - and _ ).

To avoid losing your 8 Ball Pool account, we recommend you first upgrade it by creating a Miniclip ID account, and then if you so wish you can link it to a Facebook or Google account (with the same email address as the Miniclip ID account). This avoids losing the guest account by trying to link it to a Facebook/Google account already in use, which would be quite upsetting.

Hope this helps! As always, if you have any questions or still experience issues after following these steps go ahead and contact us! 😊

Suspensions, bans, Clubs and exploits-related related issues (8 Ball Pool)

 Suspensions, bans, Clubs and exploits-related related issues (8 Ball Pool)
 Image result for Suspensions 8bp


Please note that when an account receives a warning, has its balance reset or is banned all the leaderboard points will be reset as well and will show as 0.

  • My leaderboard winnings have not been increasing!
If during your gaming session, you win games but, when you check your leaderboard, the value and stand of your winnings remain the same, you may have been temporarily suspended from our leaderboard.
This occurs when exploits such as third-party applications or game modifiers have been tracked in your account.
You will still be able to access your account, and you are able to play as normal, however, you will not gain progress on the weekly leaderboards, for a while.
If you continue to use exploits after this, we may increase the leaderboard suspension time for an indefinite amount of time, or even apply a balance suspension or permanent ban.
Miniclip will not provide you with any information with regards to the duration of the leaderboard suspension, or as to what exploits were being tracked.
Make sure to uninstall every application that helps you gain an advantage over your opponents.
  • I received a warning pop up on my account and my balance was reset!
This is a sign that Miniclip just provided you with a last warning before executing a permanent action.
Your account was flagged by our system for suspicious behavior, and your balance was reduced.
Take this as a last chance to start over and play the game as it was intended, without modifications, or exploits.
If you have any apps or tools installed on your device that would allow you to modify or help you play the game, please make sure to uninstall these apps or tools immediately. If you have been transferring coins between accounts, that too violates the rules of the game.
  • My account has been banned!
Accounts that have had multiples tracked exploits are permanently banned and will not be reactivated.
Exploits include, but are not limited to, trying to transfer coins between accounts, and using third-party game modifiers.
Miniclip reserves the right to ban an account without previously giving it a warning if such action is considered necessary by us.
 Miniclip will NOT be sharing its tools and methods for finding and proving misuse and inappropriate behavior. Miniclip will also not provide you with the amount of instances or the dates on which they were tracked.
If you contact us asking for that information, it will not be provided to you.
  • Can I get a warning, suspension or ban removed?
No.
We have a very reliable system that tracks, warns and removes players from the game when there is enough proof of exploits.
Permanent bans, suspensions, and warnings will not be revoked or removed.
If your account is banned, you will not be able to unlink this account from Facebook or change the email of the banned account.
Please play the game as it is meant to be played, and you will never have to experience any of the above-described situations.
  • How does this affect my Club?
If you get banned temporarily or suspended from your leaderboard, your Club winnings will return to zero, as if you never played that week.
This is something to take into account when you use any type of cheat, since it will affect your Club directly!
