8 Ball Pool has always been committed to fair play! Playing 8 Ball Pool is about having fun, making friends & enjoying the 8 Ball Community and, of course, taking part in fair (and tough) competition!
Cheating or infringing Miniclip's Terms and Conditions might be fun for you, but not for others. So we take any kind of rule breaking very seriously. We monitor complaints, and take actions on a daily basis.
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 or it is reset to 0, you may have been temporarily suspended from our leaderboard. This will also suspend your results on any Time-Limited Events with a Leaderboard associated, such as Tournaments. This happens when we find that you have been infringing our Terms and Conditions.
Please find more info about possible reasons below why this action was taken, below.
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. This includes any time-limited event's leaderboards such as championships.
Once the suspension period is over, your account will be safe as long as you do not infringe any other rule that is set out in our Terms and Conditions. So please read the rules carefully and that you have uninstalled every application that helps you gain an advantage over your opponents.
If you continue to use exploits after this, we may:
- increase the leaderboard suspension time for an indefinite amount of time
- apply a coin suspension (read below)
- permanently ban your account.
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.
Please note, that there might be other reasons, why your leaderboard is not adding up. For further information please read: Leaderboard not adding up (8 Ball Pool)
- All or most of my coins are missing!
If during your gaming session, you notice that all or almost all of your coins are missing, this might mean we have tracked with your account an infringement of our Terms and Conditions and your coins have been suspended permanently. You will not get those coins back.
Please find more info about possible reasons below why this action was taken, below.
You will still be able to access your account, and you are able to play as normal. You are not able to get those coins back, but you continue to gain coins as you normally do.
Your account will be safe as long as you do not infringe any other rule that is set out in our Terms and Conditions. So please read the rules carefully and that you have uninstalled every application that helps you gain an advantage over your opponents.

However, there might be other reasons, why there was a reduction of coins. Please read this: My coins are missing!!

No.
