How much time it takes for a cheater get banned after reporting?

I reported a suspected cheater and it has been a week and he is still playing.
And to think you were so careful about using the word "suspected"...
Disclaimer: I am not a Lichess mod and have no inside information about their cheat detection process.

In my narrow experience, folks that I report either get banned within a day or two, or not at all. This makes me think that the turnaround is pretty quick *if* there is enough evidence to ban the person for cheating. If it's been a week like in your case, from my experience, there is probably not enough evidence yet, or they are not actually cheating.

Again, this is just from my experience and I could be totally wrong.
@pz16 , you are not allowed to do public accusation/naming and shaming. (I suggest you to remove the previous game links before the mods see them)
You have much higher risk of getting banned than your opponents!
