Subject: Fortnite Matchmaking Error – Constantly Kicked from Every Match

Hello Fortnite Support,

I am experiencing a serious issue that is making Fortnite completely unplayable for me. Every time I join a match, I am kicked almost immediately and receive the following error message:

“THERE WAS A PROBLEM

You were removed from the match due to internet lag, your IP or machine, VPN usage, or for cheating. We recommend not utilizing VPN or proxy services while attempting to play Fortnite.

(errors.com.epicgames.common.processing)”

My internet connection is working perfectly fine, I do not use a VPN or proxy, and I have never used cheats or any third-party software to gain an unfair advantage. Despite this, the game continues to remove me from matches, preventing me from playing altogether.

This is extremely frustrating, especially because I have done nothing that should cause this issue. I would appreciate it if your team could investigate why this is happening and determine whether there is a problem with Fortnite’s matchmaking, anti-cheat system, or something else incorrectly flagging my connection or machine.

I simply want to be able to play Fortnite normally without being kicked from every match. Please could you help me identify the cause of this error and provide a solution?

Thank you for your time. I look forward to hearing from you.
