Questions, answered
Can I link my PUBG account to both Google and Apple IDs?
No, PUBG Mobile allows only one external link per account. Linking a new ID will overwrite the previous one and may result in loss of progress if not backed up.
What happens to my in‑game items if my account is recalled?
All items, skins and progress are permanently removed. The account cannot be restored, so you will need to start from scratch on a new account.
Is it safe to use 217G to buy a PUBG account?
217G sells accounts via escrow, ensuring both buyer and seller are protected. Make sure the account has no pending bans and is fully verified before completing the transaction.
