Tickets for Review (3 days and older) [merged]

#1 - Sept. 4, 2012, 10:45 p.m.
Blizzard Post

This thread is intended for you to use to follow up on support issues that have been filed with support but have not been resolved in three days or more or, perhaps, tickets about which you have continuing questions.

Please allow the team time to resolve issues before posting here, so don’t submit a ticket and post, but rather follow-up if the ticket needs a review after it’s been in the queues for five four three days or more.

Our Customer Support Team is working diligently to resolve unanswered tickets.

In a previous Game Status Update, we suggested that players with an older, unresolved ticket about a hacked account or blocked login issue should submit a new ticket to get their issue correctly prioritized. However, in retrospect, that suggestion was an error. Players should not submit duplicate tickets, but should update their EXISTING ticket. This is a different procedure than we had messaged earlier, and we apologize for any confusion this may cause.

If you have submitted a ticket and have not received a response, please make certain that you have provided a clear and accurate description of the issue that you are facing. If you would like to update your ticket for clarity or to provide more identifying information, simply update in the Support interface or respond to the most recent emailed copy you received and include as much of this information as possible:

  • Your GW2 Username
  • Your serial code
  • A character name, if any
  • A detailed description of the issue that you’re experiencing
  • Any error code that you are getting

Please also make certain that you have closed out any additional tickets that you may have created about the same issue to expedite your response.

Thank you for your help!

Any idea on when the ‘prioritised’ tickets prior to Sept 2nd are actually going to be complete then?

No worries. This was on us, and we’ll continue to address them properly, even if they are dupes.

We don’t update the title correct?

If you have a vague subject line, it can’t hurt to make it more specific: “Hacked Account” or “Log-in Issues.” No need to change, but you can if you wish.

lovely, that doesn’t help me. i created a new ticket (as suggested) and closed my old one (as suggested). i guess i will see if i can re-open my old ticket or i will be waiting even longer for a response…

Can you try and let me know? I don’t know the answer to that question! If you’ve submitted a new ticket, it’s ok, we’ll get to it, but if you can update the older one, that’s good, too. (And I’d like to know the answer, honestly.)

A few general observations:

  • Please provide your oldest ticket number when you post.
  • Please go in and close your other tickets; that will help you and us.
  • If you have more info, or want to check on the status, update your oldest ticket.
  • Please do not make exaggerated claims. I can see the dates of the tickets and there have been a few claims of “I’ve been waiting a week” for an issue that was reported a few days ago.
  • Please note that we send automated responses because it does help some players. These mailings are not considered a final answer — as the mails themselves state — and we know that many people will continue to need help. We ask that you not get insulted (or insulting ) when you get the mass mailings, and understand that while you may still need personal assistance, there are others for which the mailing was extremely helpful.
  • We appreciate your patience, and are working hard to get all the issues resolved, from forgotten passwords to hacked accounts to linking questions.

Here is tonight’s update. As you can see, a whole lot of tickets have been addressed in this batch. We strongly believe that, except in cases where we need additional information, a large majority of the other issues that are in the queues now will be resolved by the end of the weekend.

This your having a laugh 30 case solved in 1 day and most of these are for cheaters that were using the Karma exploit, so they can go back and do the same. How many people you got working in support 1. If you need help e-mail me , Jesus i used to do more then that before dinner. Yet people who have done nothing wrong ,have to wait for weeks to get a look in. If it is true that 11,000 people were hacked and your only doing 30 people a day ,its going to be one hell of await

My ticket is running for 2 weeks now and still ticking

Oh goodness, this is not the all-inclusive list of addressed tickets! This is a response to those who specifically posted in this thread. There were hundreds and hundreds of tickets resolved in the same timeframe — I’m just answering those who posted.

Also, not most, but very few of these were using the karma exploit — I think just three, maybe?

Please don’t jump to conclusions or make sweeping assessments. It doesn’t do you, the others players, or us any good at all.

#401 - Sept. 8, 2012, 2:10 p.m.
Blizzard Post

Honestly, I feel that I have a lot more faith in the support team. Now that I know they are doing it in chronological order, while taking care of support tickets for various other issues aside from account-related.

I was only concerned because I thought that they were only prioritizing hacked account tickets, and taking care of easy tickets on the side.

But now that I can see where I stand in the assistance, I am relieved.

120902-013528 (my boyfriend’s ticket for his overlapping accounts)
120902-016895 (my ticket for my overlapping accounts)

I’m still a couple days away, but waiting for my turn is making me run in circles = O.

Thank you for understanding. What I am doing here is not the support process, it’s in addition to the support process, to try to help those who are posting. You get it, and I thank you for that. The team is working through the tickets as quickly as possible, and what I did — for my small contribution here — is pull those in a certain time block. That’s not to say others aren’t being handled.

#404 - Sept. 8, 2012, 2:48 p.m.
Blizzard Post

The rate your going still isn’t enough. There’s no way to justify that. Anet doesn’t have NEARLY the amount of people working on the hacking/bans as they should, bottom line.

I would respectfully offer that you really don’t know the rate or the number of people involved. I’m not saying it’s perfect, and I’m not saying that people are not waiting longer than they and we want them to. But let’s not make a pointless and unfounded statement here.

[Incident: 120905-001631] Still not handled after a week now. Cool.

But the ticket is just three days old. Did you create more than one ticket? If so, could you please reference your first ticket number, and could you close the other tickets so you don’t slow the response time?

#424 - Sept. 8, 2012, 10:19 p.m.
Blizzard Post

GaileGray,
I have seen you state above that having more than one ticket open can slow down our response time. My issue is that I have had a couple of pressing issues that needed resolution, and I had to create a 2nd ticket for a 2nd issue while the first was being looked at. When the first issue was resolved, it seemed that both my tickets got closed. I have since created another ticket to only include the issue at hand, and updated my old ticket (dated from august 30) to mention I still needed it resolved.

I am not exaggerating the date of my original ticket on my account ban issue, but because it was closed when the other issue was fixed I am unsure if even it is being looked at or ever was, and I am not sure if I can comfortably close the most recent ticket that I put in which is 3 days old.

120826-011612 from 08/26/2012 – resolved ticket with billing issue

120831-002045 from 08/30/2012 – ban and billing issue ticket that got closed prematurely

120905-010453 from 09/05/2012. -ticket submitted with only ban issue

I am unsure if there is anything that I should do regarding these tickets, and even though I know you have been busy, I have been waiting a long time and not having confidence that my ticket will go through since it was closed without fully being looked at.

Jayman — I understand your confusion. Having one ticket to deal with two major issues is still best, and I think the way you’ve handled this is ok. But sure, I completely understand why you felt two tickets were required.

#425 - Sept. 8, 2012, 10:20 p.m.

Hey Gaile,

It took 10 days for me to get my account back and now I am happy as ever to be playing again. Thank you for all the efforts your team is putting in to resolve these issues and good luck to the future of this game.

Deminent

Thank you, sincerely, for your positive attitude. 10 days is far too long, and we know that very well. We’re working those numbers down to a few days, at most, and again, I’m glad you’re back in the game and appreciate your grace in your kind words!

If you’re handling tickets by order recieved, why has ticket #120826-004269 still not been resolved? It’s become very frustrating for the person involved.

I do not know the answer to that, and I will find out. Does it involve access issues?

120829-017005 – is my initial ticket
120905-008216 – is my follow up referenced to the last ticket, because the last ticket was not dealt with

This is also far behind the norm, and we’ll take a look at this today. Please note, threats of legal action do not move your ticket to the front of the queue, nor do threats of charge-backs or BBB complaints. But right is right, and unless there’s something additional that I cannot see in your notes, this should be addressed very soon, with our apologies for the delay.

Why as my e-mail address been add to this account Ensir.1457 when I never used it for this account

SO very sorry about this delay, as well. An agent is working on it right now. If s/he has questions, the ticket will get an update, otherwise I think this will be addressed very soon.

Hi Gaile,

I’m really not trying to be confrontational but could you folks please give us at least some indication as to where the team are in terms of tickets being “looked at”? Given that I (and, from what I gather looking at several forum posts, others) are now past the 72 hour mark and haven’t had any response whatsoever from a CSR, it’s getting pretty frustrating.

Thanks.

It’s a fair question. I’m going to see if I can get an update about that within the hour. It’s Sunday, and I know we have a lot of agents working, but this overview would best come from a manager. They’re on board, and I’ll see if I can get details for you guys.

Please take note that my last update to the ticket was not a threat in a way to escalate the ticket, but was my right to do so and ask for a full refund.

I’m sorry for the issues that you’re experienced, and we will do that for you. Please go ahead and continue your conversation with Support and they will make that refund happen, if that is your desire.

Ok, I’ve gotten the account back, but the account that was restored no longer has access to the game…

I’ve reopened the ticket and now I just need someone to actually address it correctly this time.

Are you sure you added a retail code? The grace period is long over, and you need to add that code. But if you have, what is your ticket number, please?

Seriously… get hacked then wait 8 days to get account restored after mailing back and forth 4 times.

Logg in play 2 hours, go to work 10hours get home and logg in seeing Account is suspended.

So this means 8 days more of wating?

Yes i have changed password etc..

Assuming you updated your ticket or submitted a new one, what is your 12-digit incident number?

My second ticket to try and get the password reset got closed as duplicate, even though I only made the ticket after I got the mail my account problems had been “resolved”. Please check with your customers wether tickets have really been resolved before closing them. We like being taken seriously.

Please please read and heed the subject line. Please only post if your ticket is five days old or older. Here’s why: If you post today and your ticket is 2 or 4 days old, I’m going to skip it in the review process simply because we want to get help to those who have been waiting longer. Then you’re going to think you’re in the review queue, and you will not be.

I cannot respond to each of you individually, but half of the tickets being posted here are 4 days old and younger. Please only post if you have been waiting for 5 days or longer. By the way, this timespan will decrease as things get caught up, but for now, it’s five (5) days.

Update Gaile: was able to transfer myself back to my server, just items, gems and gold issue left, Thanks!

We do not presently have the ability to restore accounts. In the future we will be able to help with these issues, but right now that’s not possible. Please note that when we do a restoration, it will not be a single character but will be account wide.

Good evening Gaile, could you by any chance send an internal memo to Tim in Accounts to deal with my ticket as a day or 2 per reply is not great and I would like my situation resolved quickly.

I would love to be able to chat with someone, but the chat system is NEVER on when it comes up to a day it supposed to be available its then not, and the never ending cycle of on off continues with the chat.

Ticket is 120905-008216 (re:120829-017005)

Here is your update:

  • Your tickets have been reviewed and the agents involved have offered what help we are able to give. Reading through the two lengthy threads, it appears you are unwilling to accept that assistance but continue to demand refunds, refer to laws that are irrelevant to the issue, and threaten legal action.
  • We cannot and will not refund money that was not paid to us, which you have demanded.
  • We will not “de-activate the cd-keys so that (you) may resell them.” That is a violation of the User Agreement to which you agreed, and is absolutely forbidden.

120830-000500 Resolved
120830-016564, 120905-007995 Resolved
120830-008401 Resolved, I believe. Please update if you still need assistance.
120828-016914 We’ve reviewed and an agent should respond soon.
120831-014373 As agent replied, there is currently a cap at joining 4 guilds. This could change in the future.
120825-025535 We did one reset of missing CE item issues; this is queued for possible assistance in the future.

So a ticket involving hundreds of dollars in fraudulent charges to a hacked account using cc info that could not be deleted is less priority than joining 5 guilds? Awesome to know.

Please don’t be silly. There are many issues that have been waiting for a while, and more than 200 agents handling things. I’m posting as I get the word, but you should not make a sweeping judgment on support practices or priorities based on anecdotal evidence.

Hey Gaile

Just wondering if my Guildmates Ticket (see below) has been put onto the prioritized list of ticket numbers? He’s a patient bloke and just wants to get back on line, or else he may have to start playing NHL13 (since there’s an NHL lockout now)

He knows that the major part ATM seems to be the disconnected emails for GW1 & 2, but the original ticket was mainly based on the linking of GW1&2, but since the request of information it seems as though this ticket has either been swept under the rug or not placed into que.

Can you please send out an update please, as this ticket seems to be dragging past a week (Sept 6)for the 2nd request of all information (GW1&2 codes). Please let the CS know that one of the emails listed in the Ticket is no longer used, and it states that the master account email is correct (this maybe the reason that he is not recieving emails about the ticket updates)

Thanks for the great work….

This is the second post that I have posted in this thread about the issue with my husbands compermised account. He is unsure as to why he can not play, weather he was hacked or banned or such. It has been six days now since he has been able to play the game. There has been no reply at all and he has not recived any e-mail from the support staff. He has closed all other tickects besides his main ticket pertaining to the issue, ticket number 120908-004401. We don’t understand why the issue has not been addressed when they are saying that all tickets that are older than five days are being taken care of. He also sells your product and is trying really hard not to give negative input about the game. He loves the game and tells people how great it is but at the same time he has been unable to play for almost a week for a reason that is unknown to him. Please fix this today or at least give us some kind of feed back today. Thank you.

This appears to be resolved.

I’m using a friend’s account to post, because I cannot access my own.

My ticket (Ref # 120907-006736) is now 5 days old, however the issues has lasted a week. I closed an older ticket because it seemed like I was not going to get any other responses (though now I think that may have been a mistake). The current ticket (see number above) received an automated and a personal response within a day or two, but I quickly responded that that was not the issue (it is not a username/password issue). My account email and info has been changed by someone else, not me, and thus I cannot access it.

I would really appreciate help soon recovering my account.
I know you folks have a lot going on, and I really appreciate the help. Maybe take a coffee break after you read this, but then, resolve my issue. Thanks!

Gaile please help me out. 12 days now, with not 1 reply from support. Ticket number is 120901-009025. Seeing people who may have waited much less time getting help is really frustrating me.

I’m looking at your ticket and it makes my head spin. Mostly it looks like you have two issues that we should help with: a means to link the accounts (where you created two accounts) and the restoration of missing CE items.

If that’s the case, the CE items were restored at some point, and I believe they may be restored again at a later date, but I don’t know that for sure, nor when it might happen. The most critical thing, I think you’ll agree, is linking your accounts. If that’s what you need, please let me know.

280 dollars of fraudulent charges is now “silly”. My bad, Gaile.

Ticket was answered asking for information already provided – updated nonetheless and is now awaiting response. Does customer service means copy and paste a pre-used response and let the ticket sit around for another 5 days or so after the customer has already been waiting for 5 days to start with?

Maybe I should just buy a new copy of GW2.

Thanks for posting the updates regarding account issues.

I was wondering, since you already have a topic “Account Issue Updates – Posted Daily”
Could it be possible for you to post updated ticket numbers there or creat a new topic regarding updated/resolved ticket numbers? I think that it makes more sense, since in this thread it changes daily, and I find that I have to search the pages for your Ticket Number updates; to figure if my guildmates ticket number is there or not

Just a suggestion…as I’m sure that I’m not the only one doing the same thing

Thanks

Incident 120903-001548.

It has now been 11 days since my account was hacked and 6 days since it was returned to me and I requested either a credit to my credit card for gems I just had bought before the hack occurred or a return of the gems. I provided the order number for the gems in the incident report.

Also, I appear to have lost my CE items too when I deleted my first character.

The same thing has happened to my friend. Said, “It has been resolved.” but it clearly hasn’t seeing as he still has no access to his account and it has been well over a full week since it was hacked and supposedly resolved.

3days ago ticket changed to “in progress” but no real reply, since then nothing, I updated the ticket with my display and character names so it changed back to “updated” instead of “in progress”, all good? 8days total.

I’ve submitted this under the support already but the issue was close before it was resolved.

Sorry, I really can’t help without a ticket number. If you provide that in your post, that would be great.

I put in a ticket on sunday the 9th because my account was hacked and all my gear/gold/banked items/crafting materials were stolen. Also my mail was deleted. Is there a way to get my gold/items back without having to roll back my account? Since it’s been so long i started playing again and would not really want to have all that work/time deleted. I logged on while they were stealing stuff I believe and was able to change my password and protect my two lowest level characters.

120909-004664 was the ticket.

The only way to conduct an account restoration — once the service is offered — is to “roll back” the account. There isn’t a way to generate items or to roll back a single character while leaving the others intact.

Please note: Some of you are asking for replacement of CE or DDE items that you either received and accidentally deleted or which you never received. Please note that one replacement run has been done. I believe another has been done or will be done very soon.

Replacements are one per customer. If you were on a previous list, you will not be given another set of replacements. If you were not on a replacement list, please be sure your ticket is filed with support and update to say you are still awaiting your items. Please do not file a new ticket.

Hey GaileGrey,
Thank you for this information. Do you have an estimate of when we can expect this additional run to occur?

This is in reference to;
ticket: 120825-033103
subject: Account Items Deleted
created on: 08/25/2012

Thank you,
Nate

Sorry, Nate, I don’t know a date for that yet, but I do know the team is aware that this will need to take place. I just want to say again that this is a one-time offer, and players need to be sure they do not request twice, and that they always keep enough space in their inventory to store the items, because the replacement run could be made at any time.

My friend bought the game the 28 august, made his account and can’t get any email confirmation message, and the cd key is used, he can’t use it again. We tried to contact you arenanet since the 28 and no answer, he wants his account he paid for it and can’t use it

Could I please have his 12-digit incident or ticket number? Thank you.

Waiting for a long time now help me out if can.

My in-game mail doesn’t allow me to send mail. Any time I attempt to send mail to anyone results in the error “Processing previous mail.”. I also cannot put items up on the trading post to sell, it replies with the error
“Error attempting to sell.”
i have this bugg since 2 days ago already help me out if can please.

As this post subject says, please allow five days before you post on the forums asking for a follow-up. Also, this does not sound like an account issue, but more like a bug. You may wish to post this in the bug forum.

Hey GaileGrey,

Hi there i am waiting still for a fix of my account, multiple people told me its a account issue not a bugg.
I even posted it in the section of buggs but no admin or gm are replying to it

Review my ticket if can thanks: ticket: 120916-005007

Sincerely,

Yoshiro.4159

I don’t know who “multiple people” are, but account issues are things like “I can’t log in” or “I was hacked.” If you’re not getting your mail, then that seems like a bug or a technical support issue to me.

Regardless, your ticket is two days old. You can add it back to this thread in three days, if the problem persists.

Ticket submitted 25th August, still awaiting solution: 120825-035702

Received 2 responses from the Support Team, first on 25/08/2012 04:19 PM and the second on 29/08/2012 03:13 AM . Total silence since then, ticket was auto-closed on 10th Sept., followed by an email asking me to confirm if I still needed help. I clicked the link in the email and did indeed confirm I still needed help.

Still being deafened by the silence from the Guild Wars Support Team. After 21 days I’ve pretty much run out of patience!

I posted the above on the 15th Sept., now it’s the 17th Sept and still zero response! Without a doubt this is the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced!

Third time posting in this thread! I get a very strong feeling that I’m just being ignored! It’s now 24 days since I submitted my ticket and 20 days since my ticket received a response from anyone at ArenaNet!

I did receive the following reply from GaileGray 8 days ago in another thread (https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/11-Day-Ticket-Closed-No-response-Reason/first#post98893):

I’ve had my email client open since I read your post in another thread about the email being sent out and it actually arrived about 5 minutes ago in my Inbox! I’ve clicked the link and clicked on the “Yes I still need help” button. Ticket number is 120825-035702.

Great — we’ll get to that asap.

That was because my ticket was auto-closed and I subsequently received an email asking if I still needed help with my issue! Despite clicking the link in the email and confirming that I still need help, my ticket hasn’t received any further response from the Support Team!

Grizzly, I totally understand your frustration, and again, I apologize. I added this to my review list on Sunday, and I believe that two or three agents are helping me with that list today, so I do expect to hear tonight (or tomorrow at the latest). Very sorry for the delay in answering this and a few others extremely old tickets I see in the recent posts from players who have been extremely patient (for which we are extremely grateful!)

Anyway, that is why we have this thread, so please bear with us. (Get it, a little joke, with Grizzly and… ok, I’m outta here for now. runs)

I submitted ticket# 120828-016512 on launch day (8/28) due to being unable to apply a retail key to the pre-order account I’ve been playing on. I’m now stuck with a blank account and cannot access the characters I created during the 3 day headstart.

Although I acknowledge the monumental task of assisting all the people with hacked accounts, I cannot help but feel extremely disappointed in Arenanet support. I have been extremely patient and have done everything they asked of me i.e. not submitting a second ticket, updating the ticket with relevant information.

Despite all that I have done, they close my ticket, which I promptly reopened, and haven’t heard back from them since then. I have not played the game since launch because I have every intention of keeping my original characters.

What do you think a customer is supposed to do at this point?

I know the question is somewhat rhetorical, but I want to say thank you to you, as well, for your extreme patience. Obviously, this goes on today’s review list and I expect I will have an answer by tomorrow.

Antares, I can sympathize, I’ve have a ticket opened as well since 9/4 that was closed which I also reopened and have yet to receive a human response from anyone at ArenaNet.

I’m highly disappointed with the support being offered. This is the first company that I’ve ever worked with that has left me hanging this long on an issue.

Could I get that 12-digit incident/ticket number? Do I already have it? Just checking — we want to help!

I’m really not sure what could possible be resolved by posting this info here, but as requested…

Information is in my signature.

I’m sorry, I do not see a ticket number in your signature. Could you please provide?

Greetings.

My ticket was submitted on the “08/30/2012 at 01:26 PM”.
Reference : 120830-013442
The issue was fixed two weeks ago (“Bad Blood” – Exiting the conversation will no longer arbitrarily lock the player into a choice”) but only for new players.
I’m still stuck in a choice I didn’t made, also my “My Story” tab is bugged. The quest is level 36 and I’m now level 80. I have been waiting for nearly a month to be able to continue my Personal Story. I got only automated replies since the patch. My ticket was closed and I had to re-open it.

I hope you can help me,
Thank you

As I read this, I thought “This sounds more like a bug than an account issue” and indeed that is the queue in which your ticket resides. I would suggest that you pursue this in the bug forum although I can add it to the review list, it’s just that the crew helping me with these generally is not the same as those working on bug reports.

My account was hacked on Saturday, the 15th. I received an email on the 16th saying they had re-enabled my account. I replied and asked why the email authentication didn’t work. They didn’t even answer my question. They replied with the exact same response from the first email. I finally reset my password online, according to their instructions, but I still can’t log in.

Wish I saw this before I have two tickets that are being ignored or in one.. dealt with in a COMPLETELY wrong manner.

ok well went to get the ticket numbers and found one was just responded to… in a COMPLETELY wrong manner. Please do not give me the “we cant give items back” canned response as I know this is incorrect. Items are being returned to people for other reasons.

120901-001537 8/31 – had two situations where the mystic forge ate my items with nothing given in return, it now says waiting.. you didnt request info you just told me to report bugs in game. I want the items back or at least what the mystic forge would have given me.

120829-009894 8/29 over night 1 gold(give or take 10s) was gone from my character.. very quickly the GM handling it and I figured that this was NOT a hacking to my elation.. but then it gets weird they change my password(back when I couldn’t change it back) to my annoyance. I mean come on YOU try and remember Q93mL9qf…. and of course I have changed it by now. So now its just in limbo.. I am afraid its now too old for you to trace the gold but again I want it back. I didnt spend it, there was nothing I could have spent it on before I logged out or when I logged back in in the morning until I discovered the lost money.

I know you have a lot of issues out there and that I am not a special flower but I would like to be treated fairly and I think I have waited much longer than normal… 3 weeks..

You are demanding that we spawn items and give them to you, when we are not able to and will not do that. The comparison between the replacement of Digital Deluxe / Collector’s Edition items and your situation is not at all realistic. I am sorry for what you experienced, but we do not have the tools that would allow us to fulfill your requests. That truly is the end of the matter in relation to both tickets.

Some issues require more scrutiny, or the involvement of multiple agents. The tickets you cited may be newer, but many more were older than yours.

As you can see from any update, there is a wide variety of dates on the tickets. No one is ignoring you, but it’s only possible to address so many in a day, and you will be helped as soon as possible.

Third time posting in this thread! I get a very strong feeling that I’m just being ignored! It’s now 24 days since I submitted my ticket and 20 days since my ticket received a response from anyone at ArenaNet!

I did receive the following reply from GaileGray 8 days ago in another thread (https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/11-Day-Ticket-Closed-No-response-Reason/first#post98893):

I’ve had my email client open since I read your post in another thread about the email being sent out and it actually arrived about 5 minutes ago in my Inbox! I’ve clicked the link and clicked on the “Yes I still need help” button. Ticket number is 120825-035702.

Great — we’ll get to that asap.

That was because my ticket was auto-closed and I subsequently received an email asking if I still needed help with my issue! Despite clicking the link in the email and confirming that I still need help, my ticket hasn’t received any further response from the Support Team!

Grizzly, I totally understand your frustration, and again, I apologize. I added this to my review list on Sunday, and I believe that two or three agents are helping me with that list today, so I do expect to hear tonight (or tomorrow at the latest). Very sorry for the delay in answering this and a few others extremely old tickets I see in the recent posts from players who have been extremely patient (for which we are extremely grateful!)

Anyway, that is why we have this thread, so please bear with us. (Get it, a little joke, with Grizzly and… ok, I’m outta here for now. runs)

Well it’s nice to see someone finally take notice! If I’d known that my ticket had been added to your review list on Sunday then maybe I wouldn’t be quite so annoyed and frustrated! Ah well, I guess any progress is a good thing!

Update — Tuesday, 18 September: Part 1
120825-035702 In queue, awaiting distribution

Great, that’s my ticket, so the next question is, obviously, when will that distribution take place? This week, next week, next month? Please don’t give another “asap” reply either, at least give us somehing that narrows it down more than that!

Honestly? We’re still trying to figure that out. There are changes that may be made so that this doesn’t happen to people in the future. I believe there will be one distribution, but the question is whether to roll that out before the design change is in place, or wait and do the final distribution after the situation is fully resolved. I’m sorry I don’t know more, but it’s actively under discussion!

For those of you awaiting a replacement of Collector’s Edition or Digital Deluxe Edition items, I can tell you that a distribution will be made in what I think is the near future. I do not know a date; I do not know that a date is set. So those marked in a form like “In queue, awaiting resolution” are known to use and we will make sure you get your items when that distribution is made.

The dev team is working on some game changes that will make future distributions unnecessary, so they are holding off on the distribution for a bit.

Thank you for your patience.

I just received a response for my ticket (finally). However, it made no sense as per what I was asking… Trying to answer as many tickets as fast as possible with a copy/paste answer is not the best solution. I realize that you guys have a lot of tickets but mine still is ongoing because the GM that responded to it didn’t respond to the question that I asked. He said that I could not get a refund for something bought with gems accidentally when I NEVER asked for a refund. I simply want the missing part of my item. I’m not so sure what’s so complicated in this. I bought the Krytan armor look from the gem store and somehow while transmutating the breastplate/chest piece ’’poofed’’/disappeared and I would like that missing piece.

This has been going since SEPT 2 and is still ongoing…sad!

I expect you will disagree with me, but the team member who wrote you the detailed response was not writing in error. You’ve asked for replacement of an item, and that would involve replacement/refund of used gems, because we do not/cannot spawn items as replacements. So I understand that the language may be unclear, but the request and the response are aligned.

The item did not disappear due to a game issue. It either was accidentally deleted or it was transmuted in error. And neither of those are issues that the CS Team can resolve because there’s no policy or practice that can fix every instance of user error. I’ve accidentally deleted items; I’ve unintentionally sold items. Heck I may have deleted a character in error. But each of those things was my responsibility, because I was not careful. Even though the game has a confirmation process, I skipped over it in my haste and as a result, I lost my items. My fault. My loss. And so it is with any player. I do empathize with the situation.

No we are unable to restore gold. It’s simply not something that we have the tools to do, and the account restoration system that would roll-back the entire account is not yet available.

not resolved in anyway i cant belive u just make random assumptions..

New ticket is here 120919-008681 asking for a refund of game cba with support not helping in anyway.

NONE of my other acc is hacked… i have diablo 3 , wow etc playing with same passwords as GW 2 when i got “hacked”.

I truley beleive that every time (5times now) u open my account and i changed e-mails and passwords so many times, Its your FILTER that BANS MY ip not some hacker ones.

I need to point out that this issue positively was not on our side. Your ticket yesterday evening said that you were back on the account after creating a new email account and discussing the situation with the team on the new account.

With the repeated incidents, I believe you may have a Trojan or Keylogger on your account. Again, this is not a security issue on our side, but something related to your credentials, to your email account, or to you system. For more information, please see Mike O’Brien’s article on account security.

Posting here just in case because the ticket is 27+ days old and marked as “closed” but I’m still waiting for replacement DDE items. In the DDE/Collector items thread it mentioned numbers being gathered but I haven’t seen my ticket ID mentioned in any of the updates above and there are posts above now saying that there will only be one more big distribution? I don’t want to miss out if my ticket number was overlooked

Hey Gaile,

I too made the unfortunate mistake of accidently deleting my Rytlock mini, Tome of Influence and Chalice of Glory on the first day of headstart.

I sent in a ticket 08/25/2012 Ref. number 120825-010443 to ask for help. Chris from the Support Team answered me saying that there would be a fix in the future and that I should keep an eye on the forums. So I closed the ticket and I was waiting patiently for a fix. I`ve been checking the forums regulary these past few weeks and a few days ago I saw that there is a second distribution available for those that accidently deleted their items. So I sent in another ticket.

09/14/2012 (so a week ago) Ref. number 120914-002059
Strangely I got an answer about guild problems. o.O I updated the ticket. For now it has the status Awaiting approval. Am I in queue now for a second distribution or is this approval about something else?

Thank you in advance

When you say a second distribution, did you already get a set of replacement items?

The “awaiting approval” indicates you’re in the queue for replacements. There’s more information in my latest update in the CE/DDE thread. (And you can add 120914-002059 to that thread, if you wish.)

Hi Gaile, a few days ago you responded to Natebert.8432 – about his items, but I have not seen his tickets (120825-033103 and 120903-008429) appear in your “resolved” or “queued for distribution” lists. Are his tickets in queue for you to look at? Being that his first ticket was made on 8/25… I’d hate for him to have to miss out on this second distribution.

Thanks.

Have him post, or post for him, in the CE/DDE thread, but I can see he’s “awaiting approval” which means he’s in the queue to get items.

I’m very sorry for the loss, and I know we all look forward to being able to help with these issues in the future.

Sad, very sad that your programmers would not put this BASIC MMO functionality into the game. There should be a plan in place to help people that get hacked.
Note to game makers – make sure that your future CS has the tools it needs to help people.
#NotAAAservice

You may not be aware, but spawning gold and handing it out like cupcakes — even if “basic MMO functionality” — isn’t good for a game’s economy. If you lose a dollar, the government doesn’t print up and hand you another one — that would cause huge inflation.

To address the issue of hacked account, we soon will be offering account restorations that will “roll back” an account to its pre-compromise state. The issue will be verified, and the hacker will be tracked and and all account involved in the hack will be closed. Then, when the hacked account is rolled back, the gold is not duped and the economy isn’t damaged.

Nothing yet and these tickets have been open since kitten I unno FOREVER….. I STILL NEED MY DDE ITEMS! can you please finally get to me. Gaile Gray said he would take care of it by moving my post into some forum thread….Nothing was done about my DDE items after that happened….SO HOW BOUT YOU GIVE ME WHAT I PAID FOR!

BTW all of those tickets are 5 days atleast apart so I dont wanna hear the multiple ticket excuse from you guys….GIVE ME MY STUFF NOW!….this is rediculous you have already dropped the ball on this and have the worst customer service I have personally ever had the displeasure of dealing with in any MMORPG to date.

Submitting duplicate tickets is a bad idea, whether they’re five days apart or not. You’ve flooded the team with about 8 tickets. Several are about the CE/DDE items, and I’ve already stated where we are on that, with apologies for the delay. You will get your items.

But another ticket says you need a password reset, and another says you want a refund. Could you please close out those tickets you do NOT need help with, so the team can focus on those that are still truly pending?

GaileGray, thank you for your response. I only wish that someone would have sent out some sort of information or update (or any response whatsoever!) regarding this as a reply to the ticket, even if it was a generic autoreply of “we’re looking into it, it’s a known issue”. Rather than leaving your customers without a response, feeling neglected and confused as to what is going on. It gets quite tricky to be patient when we don’t get told what’s going on; not everyone reads the forums.
Anyway, thank you for your reply! I can only assume this will mean I will get a reply to my ticket eventually.

I agree with you, a response/answer/comment would have been good. I will share that with the team leads so they can look at more opportunities to communicate in that “update-ish” manner.

That’s fine. I’m willing to accept that it was human error and that you’re not going to ’’reimburse’’ the item. I’m not so proud as to not being able to admit that I most likely made a mistake during the transmutation which led to the disappearance of the ‘’Krytan breatplate look’‘. However, there is some feedback that I would like to leave which I hope that you can also consider. 1) My petition was closed without any answer after 10 days or so. I know I’m not the only person who’s petition was closed without getting an answer. You seem professional GaileGray so I’m sure that you can agree that whoever closed my petition without feeling the need to answer it was not acting too professional. As a customer, it is upsetting. You are a customer yourself and I’m sure that you can agree that it would of upset you too. 2) As a customer, I do not know that your company cannot make an item and would have to reimburse the full amount of gems. I’m sure that you can see why being answered that my petition to be reimbursed gems for an item bought by error would not make sense to me as it was not an item bought by error and I was not asking for gems back.

I would like to thank you for fully answering my petition on here with the right explanations. It is indeed much appreciated and I can finally feel closure on this issue. It’s too bad that it was not handled like this right away as a lot of frustration and time could of been saved from both ends.

You are absolutely right. In our hurry to get to as many tickets as possible, to review them for queue-setting, categorization, responses, and assignments, there were tickets that just seemed to fall into the void, getting no response at all. And that’s not a good way to operate, and we know it.

I am very sorry that you waited so long, and sorry, too, that what we can do is less than you had hoped. Thank you for your reasonable tone and for sharing your observations about how we could have handled this better, because that will help us do things better in the future.

Gaile—

First, I want to say how much we really appreciate the work your doing to try to help us get these old tickets taken care of.

There is another thread in the game bugs section about the specific guild issues we are having that some of these old tkts are on.
Six days ago (bottom of pg 19 of 29), Anet staff member CameronDunn, put a little blip that the guild issues were being looked into and he would keep us updated… and nothing since.
There has not been any mention of fixes on the game update notes, either.

I actually got an email from the guild wars 2 team encouraging me to join a guild for the social aspects.
(One would think they would have held off on sending that email out until the guild issues were fixed, lol— it’s just going to invite more tkts for your overloaded support staff.)

Is there anyway you can get us an update on the guild issues fix?

Thank you

Can you give me that link? I’m nose-down right now, and I’d appreciate being able to get there without searching.

Ticket submitted 25th August, still awaiting solution: 120825-035702

Received 2 responses from the Support Team, first on 25/08/2012 04:19 PM and the second on 29/08/2012 03:13 AM . Total silence since then, ticket was auto-closed on 10th Sept., followed by an email asking me to confirm if I still needed help. I clicked the link in the email and did indeed confirm I still needed help.

Still being deafened by the silence from the Guild Wars Support Team. After 21 days I’ve pretty much run out of patience!

I posted the above on the 15th Sept., now it’s the 17th Sept and still zero response! Without a doubt this is the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced!

Third time posting in this thread! I get a very strong feeling that I’m just being ignored! It’s now 24 days since I submitted my ticket and 20 days since my ticket received a response from anyone at ArenaNet!

I did receive the following reply from GaileGray 8 days ago in another thread (https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/11-Day-Ticket-Closed-No-response-Reason/first#post98893):

I’ve had my email client open since I read your post in another thread about the email being sent out and it actually arrived about 5 minutes ago in my Inbox! I’ve clicked the link and clicked on the “Yes I still need help” button. Ticket number is 120825-035702.

Great — we’ll get to that asap.

That was because my ticket was auto-closed and I subsequently received an email asking if I still needed help with my issue! Despite clicking the link in the email and confirming that I still need help, my ticket hasn’t received any further response from the Support Team!

Grizzly, I totally understand your frustration, and again, I apologize. I added this to my review list on Sunday, and I believe that two or three agents are helping me with that list today, so I do expect to hear tonight (or tomorrow at the latest). Very sorry for the delay in answering this and a few others extremely old tickets I see in the recent posts from players who have been extremely patient (for which we are extremely grateful!)

Anyway, that is why we have this thread, so please bear with us. (Get it, a little joke, with Grizzly and… ok, I’m outta here for now. runs)

Well it’s nice to see someone finally take notice! If I’d known that my ticket had been added to your review list on Sunday then maybe I wouldn’t be quite so annoyed and frustrated! Ah well, I guess any progress is a good thing!

120825-035702 In queue, awaiting distribution

Great, that’s my ticket, so the next question is, obviously, when will that distribution take place? This week, next week, next month? Please don’t give another “asap” reply either, at least give us somehing that narrows it down more than that!

Honestly? We’re still trying to figure that out. There are changes that may be made so that this doesn’t happen to people in the future. I believe there will be one distribution, but the question is whether to roll that out before the design change is in place, or wait and do the final distribution after the situation is fully resolved. I’m sorry I don’t know more, but it’s actively under discussion!

I’ve just found out that another batch of CE/DDE Item distributions took place on Friday 21st, yet I wasn’t included despite your post from last Tuesday (7 days ago) telling me that my ticket was “In queue, awaiting distribution”! Care to explain just what is going on here?

Thank you for the update on my ticket.

It being called a service is even more troubling. Does this mean if the TP lags out and crashes again and people lose items or gold again players are going to have to pay a micro-transaction to have things restored?

Please do not worry about the name. That was what we called it in GW and that’s what I’ve been calling it in GW2. It is a service, but it’s part of our customer support and there is no charge for restoring a compromised account. (Sorry for any confusion!)

After a recent transaction of turning Gems > Gold (and loosing both in the process) I submitted a ticket to seek a resolution. 8 Days later I receive a response. It was fairly obvious that this was a generic canned response, blatant that they had not even bothered to read my initial ticket.

I’m more than disappointed with this response. This is the second time this has happened to me now. Presumably I’m going to have to wait another 8 days before someone actually bothers to read my initial ticket.

Not happy.

If you want help, provide your 12-digit ticket number and we can remove this. If you’re here merely to rant, that’s really not productive and I’ll ask you to reconsider.

There is a thread in this very forum intended to address long-term (5+ days) so I’ll move this there.

I’ve been about as patient as possible with support so far.

I opened my ticket [Incident: 120828-006042] on the 28th of August with the title “Cannot use GW2 CE key” as I was receiving an error message stating I had already applied the key to my account.

I never received my CE items or the Mistfire Wolf skill but I am still able to play the game so I know that some sort of serial code must have been applied.

I updated the ticket after reading about others having trouble with their items/skill and asked for the items to be sent.

The only responses from Arenanet were copy pasted ones which did not help with the problem I was and still am experiencing.

The ticket was then closed by support despite not having been resolved on the 11th of September.

I re-opened the ticket and asked again for my items to be sent and the skill to be activated.

On the 20th of September the ticket had somehow made its way to NCsoft support, this where I received my first human response from what I can only imagine must have been an extremely puzzled man who then put me back into the GW2 support system. This same person also helpfully changed my ticket to title to the slightly inaccurate “Deleted CE/DD items”.

I updated the ticket thanking him for changing the title and waited patiently for a response.

Which brings us to today, where I logged into support intending to update the ticket as I had not been sent the items only to find that someone else from support had changed my ticket’s title to “Serial Code Issue – NOT A CE/DDE Item Deletion Issue”. They did not even bother to send me a message about the change, and I believe this may have been why I was not on the list for being sent the items on Friday.

What I would like is for an actual person to read over the ticket and give me some sort of human response. The ticket has been open for almost a month now and as far as I can tell only one person has actually bothered to read it and they were not in a position to help me.

This actual person has read through the ticket, twice. It’s a really perplexing issue, as you can see from my response in your ticket.

We should have this addressed tomorrow!

This was actually posted in the “Gem Store Questions/Issues [merged]” Thread, Clearly that was not the right place.

Thanks for the info. And posting in both threads is very helpful, but you had the right place when you posted in the Gem Store thread. This is sort of an “extra” for me to put things under review, but the other is viewed by the gem store team, as well.

Hey guys,

We’re really moving forward on the queues, so this thread is now for tickets that have not been answered for 4 days or more. Naturally, if you’re working with an agent and making progress, there’s no need to post here. This is simply for those posts that may have “fallen through the cracks” or which may need a secondary review.

My GW1 account still isn’t linked to my GW2 account.

$150 for collectors
$140 for gem purchases….

Can someone, AN, direct me to the refund department if you guys don’t want to fix this?

Oh I’m so sorry. Can I get a ticket number so I can look into this?

FYI, the system automatically closes tickets after a certain period. This is a double-edges sword: It does remove from the queue issues that would sit there taking up space (and attention) from those who need it. But it also closes tickets that should not be closed, and that’s not good for you or for us.

Anyway, I’ll be happy to take a look at this if you give me your ticket number.

I show the first as answered on 9/26 and access to your account was restored. There’s no update from you since that date, but if you need further assistance please update your ticket.

The second question provided solid information.about how account credentials were harvested on the Internet at large — not through the game system — and it appears to me it was answered in an adequate manner.

Placed my ticket on the 9th of October as I tried to log in only to find the account I had just bought and paid for a few days prior had been permanently banned! Still have yet to receive an explaination as to what happend and why this action was taken. If the account was hacked, I’m rateful they took steps to stop it, but i’d very much like to know what’s going on and how to resolve this issue ASAP.

Here’s my info below concerning the ticket.

Appeal of Account termination 121010-000361 Updated 10/09/2012

Appeal of Account Termination – Reference #121010-000361 [Incident: 121010-002387]?

I’m sorry, but your ticket is less than 48 hours old, it appears you have created multiple tickets, and you posted hourly on the forums.

Account issues take time to fully research and resolve. Because you’ve been cited for a breach of the UA and RoC, an agent needs to look into this very carefully. Please be patient.

if you actually read the ticket i said im still having problems and they still closed the support its like speaking to an outsourced call centre in india

basically my 100% is bugged ive been to each area and im still missing 3 hearts and 3 poi’s

I responded to your post about this in the Bugs Forum. I have a suggestion for you that I’d like you to try. It has resolved the problem for other players and I believe it may help you, too. Please do NOT continue to post about this; one post is sufficient. Please respond in that thread in Bugs; I am still actively reviewing this issue for you.

Hello,

In our home, there are five very loyal NCsoft customers. Four switched to Guild Wars 2 and 1 still glued to Aion. We’ve been supporting NCsoft since 2009. We are clean, honest players who do not bot nor dabble in RMT, we do buy NCoins and Gems as support to NCsoft. However, I am disappointed at how NCsoft has rewarded our loyalty and support.

Our family has bought four Guild Wars 2 accounts/games. One was bought physically, three others were bought online because the local retail outlets ran out of stock. My husband and kids could not wait any longer and we had to buy the accounts/games at the bloated price of $75 instead of $58. But supply and demand…

Out of the three accounts bought online, two are active. However on Oct. 14, my daughter’s account(third account that was bought online) has been suspended. No courtesy was paid by sending an email explaining what exactly she was accused of.
—-
Oct. 14, support ticket sent
- complied by providing the serial number, account name(email) and display name.
Oct. 15, escalated to Payment Review by Gabriella, NCsoft account support
- we still don’t know what is wrong with the account, still no explanation to the suspension
Oct.19, here’s what support said
…This Guild Wars 2 game account was closed as a result of a chargeback that was processed by the issuer of the credit or debit card that was used in (a) transaction(s) for this account…
Matt S.
NCsoft Payment Review
Oct. 19, sent screenshots of payments made, Paypal and allcdkey.com, also sent a screenshot of allcdkey.com’s email with the serial number for this particular account.

That was the last we’ve heard from NCsoft support.
—-

We did not ask for a refund/chargeback. My Paypal account still shows that the transaction(s) was completed and there was no reversal, this also was shown on the transaction records of allcdkey.com. $75 did not get credited back to my Paypal account.

My daughter could just sadly watch us – her mom, dad and brother – playing in WvW, dungeons etc. She who did not do anything wrong could not even log in the game. Meanwhile, I can still see groups of ranger bots roaming around and RMT yellers spamming the chat. That’s a huge stinging slap to our faces.

Sure, I could just buy another game. Maybe that’s what this is all about since there are no subscription fees, just terminate random accounts and people who are hooked will buy the game again. But how can I be sure the same thing won’t happen with the new account?

I am hoping that this isn’t the case though. I am hoping for a resolution.
My daughter, she is praying to have her account back.
And the four of us, we are eager to play together in-game once again.

Incident: 121014-000400

At first glance — and I will look into this more thoroughly — it appears you purchased from a non-authorized third-party seller. And while you did not ask for a charge-back, they did. Alternately, they used a fraudulent (stolen) credit card and the account was closed and refunded to the legitimate card holder.

In any event, we truly are not the source of this problem but we are unable to correct it, either, because the payment was reversed. We have not received a cent for the game, and the company appears to have made pure profit from you while costing us the fees involved in the charge-back or refund.

I’m very sorry that this happened to you, and I would love for us to be able to help you. Unfortunately, you need to go back to the seller and demand a refund. Then, after you purchase a new code through the official website you can add the legitimate code to your daughter’s account. She will be able to add to her own account, she will not need to start over.

Very, very sorry that you were taken advantage of like this. Please let me know that you’ve been able to get this resolved with the seller; I will be keeping your family in my thoughts!

I am sure you will be helped, and because this ticket is from today, I will ask that you wait and post only if you still need help after three days. That allows us to focus on those who have been waiting a few days instead of a few hours.

Couple of days and still not solved.

My account banned for gold or items selling and buying. I’m not breaking the rules. I don’t wanna waste my money for nothing. My account is wrongfully banned. 121023-002911

Thank you Gaile Gray for that very swift, helpful and compassionate reply. When I mentioned what you said to my husband and kids at lunch today, you can literally see the bewilderment lift from their faces as they chorused their ’ohhh’s.

Leia.5380, I had the same situation, same account suspension, same message, even from the same handler (Matt S.). Gaile is right, you need to contact your re-seller asap, get your money back and (if you want) buy a new key from a authorized retailer.

I did so, I have a new key that I have linked with my account, now I’m still waiting for support to open my account so I could get back to playing. 8 days and counting since the suspension started… Ticket 121016-002257.

Thank you for your comments. It is comforting to hear about someone who was/is in the same situation and on their way to recovering their account.

With this in mind, I’d like to share my experience to players whose accounts have been suspended for unauthorized (by you) charge-backs/refunds.

The following is a summary of my/our GW2 account suspension saga:
—-
From Oct 14-Oct23
GW2: Suspended
Us: Why? Help please…
GW2 support: Escalating ticket
Us: Why? Help please…
GW2 support: Charge-back
Us: What??? No we didn’t!
GW2 support: ~-.. crickets ..-~

Oct24
Us: Why? We’re innocent. Rant, rant, rant…
Six hours later
Gaile Gray: You didn’t but your retailer may have. Here’s what you can do about it. And here’s what we can do about it.
Us: Ohhhh… ~-.. goes on to contact the retailer ..-~

Much, much better communication wouldn’t you say?
That’s a clinic on how to do customer support.
—-

I have begun communicating about the situation with allcdkey.com
And it has been progressing encouragingly.

It may not be your fault, nor GW2’s. The retailer may even not mean to scam you.
I found out that my retailer has a supplier who is not GW2 directly and therein lies the problem. My retailer is working towards resolving this situation.

I’m positive that my issue will be resolved very soon.
I truly feel ‘supported’ as a customer – first by Gaile Gray and then later on by my retailer.
I am grateful.

Awesome info! I am so glad that your retailer is going to take care of you. I lose sleep at night worrying about folks who buy from the less-honest sellers and never get their money back. But I’m super happy that once someone gets a new code, s/he can get back into the game on the existing account!

I would love for us to be able to give a more informative message. I need to read exactly what it says — but if we’re saying only an accusatory, “You’re a fraudster,” then I feel we should change to say that the key is not valid because (1) you may have been sold a bad/invalid/fraudulently-acquire code or… well… (2) you may have done a bad thing. (I mean, sadly, it does happen.)

Anyway, thanks for your kind words and for your understanding. I hope all of your family enjoys the Halloween event. It is truly splendid!

Thanx for the heads up.

What exactly means “In Appeals Queue, awaiting review”?

In most cases, the appeal queue is where tickets are routed when the serial code is invalid or when the account was involved in disallowed activities. There are a few reasons this may happen:

  • Someone purchased Guild Wars 2 from (an unauthorized) third-party that used a fraudulent credit card to acquire the code.
    • Players learns the serial code is invalid and that he/she needs to seek a refund from the (unauthorized) seller or reseller. The good news in situations like this is that generally, once the player obtains a new serial code, he or she can continue to play on the existing account.
  • Someone used a fraudulent credit card to acquire the code, but is saying he did not do so.
    • They know what they did, but they try to pretend they didn’t, hoping we’ll let them have a free account. (We won’t.)
  • A player’s account was compromised and use for illicit activities such as botting, RMT spam advertisements, etc. The player finds out about this when he or she regains access to the account and finds the account has been blocked for these activities.
    • Once we can verify the facts, we will return access of the account to the owner and will remove the block that was prompted by the account thief’s actions.
  • A RMT worker truly was involved in disallowed activities like botting or selling gold and has gotten caught.
    • They appeal even though they are guilty.

Being in the Appeals Queue doesn’t necessarily mean we’re pointing the finger at someone saying, “You did a bad thing!” What it means is that “This issue needs more research.” When that is the case, specially-trained agents review the incident and make a decision about the next step.

I appreciate the update on 121019-001684, Gaile. Here’s our dilemma: he submitted this ticket through the “ask a question” page without being signed in to a support account, since it was giving him an error when he tried creating one using the e-mail originally associated with his gw2 account. Unless we’re missing something, we can’t find a way to update the ticket now. Should we attempt to create a new ticket while signed into a new support account (using a new e-mail address completely unassociated with his guild wars account) or is there a better way to approach this?

I see that the team asked you for some account verification information on the 19th. If you cannot update the ticket simply by responding to the email that should have been auto-generated, then yes, created a new ticket but be sure to include the first ticket in your message to Support, so they can gather all the info together.

What does in the queue even mean, there’s no average time for resolving the issues given and there a different types of issues that have come up. I don’t see why they can’t simply revert the bans and then actually compile evidence/information with which to conduct proper bans on the right people.

The update “In queue” is intended to let a player know that the account is still being reviewed. No timeframe is given because each situation is different and the time needed to complete a review varies.

Reverting bans and then developing evidence is not a prudent way to do business. Remember, the evidence already exists, that’s why the account is suspended. The review is intended to give players the benefit of a second look, another check, a gathering of further evidence — if any exists — to help them get back into their account.

Thank you so much for getting my account back up and running. I was stoked to see that while I did lose everything in my material storage the hacker did not get my gems! Thank you guildies who let me know that they saw my toon hawking gold, if it were not for their quick action I am sure my gems would be gone too!

Is this issue related to Guild Wars or Guild Wars 2? I think your ticket may have been mis-routed.

Ok, 4 days now from my ticket: 121025-003179

I can’t understand why Anet don’t put top priority in this issue if is obvious a mistake.

So many people banned for the 1 copper spam mail.

Please keep in mind that we are all merely theorizing that this is the issue. We have no solid evidence to support it. Don’t get too carried away now.

No one is being suspended or terminated for a 1 copper mail. If you received such an in-game mail and were suspended or terminated, that is coincidental. We wouldn’t take action on an account based on that single piece of evidence, and in fact it’s really not evidence of wrongdoing, as a player cannot control what mails come into his/her mailbox.

Hey there! Might I ask why the english forum allows re-asking for tickests after 3 days and in the german one id have to wait 5 days or longer?

May I ask the english support to get a quicker response? Dont want to cause double workload though …

D.

This one has been 5 days, the 4, then 3. I would hazard a guess that it must all correspond to the approximated wait time of tickets being answered. If the wait is 5 days, there are more tickets, and when there are less tickets the wait time goes down.

Fair question, and I apologize for that issue. All players are encouraged to post after three days (previously four, and originally five days.)

I will see if I can venture into those forums and lower that 5 to a 3. Thanks for pointing this out.

Hi,

I dont have a ticket, since german support refuses(!) to do anything for me anymore.
This is not about beeing unpatient.

If you have contacted Support, you have a support ticket. I don’t know how you can interact with them without a ticket. So please review your emails or your support account on the support.guildwars2.com site and provide that 12-digit number here so I can help you.

ticket :121026-002028

Account closed for payment fraud; will not be reinstated.

You should be wrong. What fraud, i’m just play in game and get 40 lvl don’t purchase any illegal deals and etc. Can you explain in detail what’s going on. Any history of my illegal operation’s please… i think you understand my feeling that i’m lost my account not on the my fault.

Thank’s for explanation.

You or someone else associated with your credit card filed a charge-back on the credit card used to pay for the game. That means we did not get paid for the game. When that is done, the account is permanently closed.

[Incident: 121025-001479]

5 Days and still no support.

My ticket isn’t even mentioned in the thread updates with how it’s being handled. What’s going on?

You have had a significant number of responses from the team. And while I understand you are not happy with the answer that they have given, the answer is, in fact, 100% accurate: We do not have the capacity to restore items or characters, nor to “roll back” an account to its pre-compromise state.

We will have this system in the future. From that date, those who are hacked and who qualify for the service will be eligible for the (free) Account Restoration Service. However, with regret, we cannot offer that service now.

I posted that in another threat but will repost here because it concerns quiete some people already. Please read carfully and please let somebody know who can change the current banning of “innocent” players.

There are “many” people having a problem with accouns they unknowingly and without intention purchased at a Reseller that commited credit-card fraud.
Most of us did researches before the purchase so they thought the seller can be trusted.

We did not and didnt mean to commit a fraud. We wanted to save a little money and when I purchased (for example) the website itself didnt sell copies. I dont remember why. But thats why i (we) purchased elsewhere.

We are willing to help to solve the problem.
We are willing to pay again.
We know we didnt do the most intelligent thing.

We just want to continue our game where we left it. Our Story.

If you close our accouts permanently we would have to start over. Many will be not willing to do so. Not because we dont love the game. But because it breaks the immersion. Because it breaks our storyline.

I didnt mean to harm the company in any way. I didnt mean to cause trouble or work.

I want to play my story. In your beautiful game. Even if I did something not so intelligent. Please let me.

Thanks
D. (a player.)

You make a very good point, and I do understand your position. But what do we do about RMTs, who simply apply another fraudulent code and strip off all their ill-gotten goods in the time between the code’s application and the discovery that it is invalid? We really cannot allow that to happen. Also, what about people who get a second fraudulent code — often without them knowing it’s bad — and then have their accounts closed again?

It would be good if we could know the code was good before it was applied, before someone got access. But it can take a bit of time to find out that information, and so giving the option to “add a new code and get right back onto the account” seems to be a risky proposition.

Can you think of alternatives that address player, community, and company needs, with this information in mind?

The seller is refusing to work with me on this because of the “awaiting review” in the status update. This was posted a couple of days ago here, but has not updated my support account. Is this the preferred support channel to keep trying to escalate this? Can I get an update on the “awaiting review” or get the account cleared?

If I am reading this in correctly the seller giving you a refund for a fraudulent purchase is completely unrelated to your status on the ticket. If they sold you a bad code they should give you a refund. There is nothing we can do to force this, because they have no relationship with ArenaNet or NCsoft.

Please continue to work with your unauthorized seller to get the refund, and you can discuss the possibility of adding a new code to the account as opposed to starting a new account. Each of these situations is handled on a case-by-case basis.

As this thread titles states, this is for tickets that are at least three days old. Also, by submitting three tickets you have substantially slowed the response process. Please wait for assistance on your first ticket.

I’m on Australian time and it’s coming up on 3 days so I’m posting this before I go to bed.
Haven’t heard anything apart from ‘give us your code’.
Really at least just want the reason why so I can get a refund from the retailer if it’s not something trivial, my time is running out on the possibility of a refund.

It hasn’t been 72 hours exactly, but by the time it is, I’d imagine the office would be closed for the weekend, so I’m jumping the gun a little.

121108-000346 is the ticket number. I was transferred to Payment Review team on Wednesday, but haven’t heard anything since. All information is in the ticket, but I am happy to provide more if it helps.

Ticket Number
121108-000720

121108-002163

I have been waiting for 1 day and some hours though, but I need help soon since it’s holiday and I got some free time to play..

Ok, this is getting out of hand. These tickets, and several others in the thread, are only a day or two old. They will not be reviewed at this time. Please give the team time to resolve these and post only if the wait exceeds three full days. If you posted prematurely, you’ll need to post again after my update. Thank you for understanding.

I bought the game this week, i played only a few hours these days because during the week I dont have much time.
But now the weekend comes, i was so excited to really start to play and surprise surprise. I received the message “Your Guild Wars 2 account has been suspended for an account issue”.
So desappointed =(
I opened the ticket 121109-002219. But as I see here in forum, I will probably not be able to play this weekend write?
The message is not clear about the reason I´m suspended. It´s very frustating.
What is the common reason? Anyone knows? I bought the game from the site and played just fine for a couple of hours during this week.
Thank you for any clarification.
I guess my message doesnt belong here, if it is right, where should i place it?

You should not post in the forums at all at this time. You submitted a ticket: Great! Post in this thread if you still need help after three full days.

Gaile, I just got a response on my ticket saying my code was obtained fraudulently. This while it was directly purchased off your site. They say the buyer used stolen credentials ? My “buyer” would like to contact you guys, preferably through phone to set things straight. Is there any option for him to get in contact within a regular time frame because tickets don’t seem to be a reasonable tool to have a decent conversation. Please let me know,

PS : Asking for elaboration got me a copy-paste message from the same GM. Where on earth is the service ?
Airi

I am confused: Are you saying you purchased directly from us? Or did you purchase from someone who claims to have purchased from our website? If the latter, then it appears whomever originally purchased the code either used a stolen credit card or he issued a charge-back, both of which would invalidate your game code. Alternately, some third parties send out completely bogus codes and they, also, must be rejected.

Ask yourself this: What did you pay for Guild Wars 2? What is the cost from the website? If you paid below the cost on the website, then how in the world did the reseller buy the code legitimately and sell it to you for less than he paid? If you paid the retail price, there still is something wrong with the code that the seller sent you.

We come across these situations all the time, and this is a classic case of fraud. If the situation I’ve described is the one in which you find yourself, your “seller” doesn’t need to speak with our team; your seller needs to give you a complete refund so you can purchase the game directly.

If you purchased directly from us, then please update your ticket to ask for another review.

Fair question. In your case, the serial code is fraudulent. Where did you purchase the game?

I still don´t know why I got suspended account. WTH is that account issue? For kitten. Whats the problem with that company. Let your clients here to talk of your problem all in same topic. If you open another, the moderator have time to move you to here but no one can talk what happen with my account. Thats insane! Im starting become a mad my patience gone. I want any information, any update, anything. And I think no one from support look this topic. ArenaNet have only 58 complaints… only here have more than 9000 in last 3 days. And the ppl who don´t speak english? its so much more than we can imagine. Its not right what Anet doing with us. Why the Hell I was suspended? No one know, no one talk with me. Just the moderator PM me telling he moved my other topics. PUFF! Its time to use that BBB and see what happen.

As you were told, the code that someone sold you is fraudulent. You need to contact the seller and get your money back so you can acquire a legitimate code.

Blizzard Post

Hey Gaile! Sorry for offtopic, but if you look in the other threats you will see that many complain they bought on the official site themselves(!) and got banned because of fraudlent code. There seems to be an error in the charging system maybe(?).

Feel free to delete this post after reading ^^

There are a few things that could be going on here:

  1. Someone purchased from our official site but used a fraudulent credit card.
  2. Someone purchased from our official site and then did a charge-back or sought a refund. Accounts are closed once the charge-back or refund is fulfilled. Sometimes people post “part of the story” but neglect to give this very relevant bit of info.
  3. The bank that is operating the credit card has flagged this as fraud within their own system, thereby putting a stop on the funds getting to us. This is particularly frustrating because both the buyer and the seller cannot control this middle-man issue.
  4. Most commonly, someone purchases from someone else who purchased from the official site. The code is disabled when that third-party seller is found to have used a fraudulent CC, or when the seller does a charge-back or obtains a refund.

I am not discounting the possibility that there is some sort of issue within the system, but the system processes thousands upon thousands of transactions a day. If there was a purchase problem, I believe we would see more than the occasional forum post, and Support would see a flood of tickets. Neither is the case. Therefore, I believe that this issue is related to one of the causes above.

This code was directly bought from your site by my bf , we started playing this game together and I have the confirmation email and everything if needed. He did not use a stolen credit card or file a chargeback. In fact everything was purchased legally and at the same time. I really don’t think you’ll be “stealing a credit card” in the Navy. I’d very much like to know how ArenaNet figures out that a creditcard is “stolen” no reports about it have been made whatsoever because the card was never stolen , it’s his own card..

What he payed for the account is price stated on your website because it was directly purchased from there. To be exact the email says $59.99. Not more, not less. This case can in no way be a fraud unless your own site is “fraudulent”. My “seller” is your website. I’ll update my ticket with additional information. But when I asked for elaboration on the case the GM Copy-pasted his last message. I very much hope the response will actually be read.

That’s very valuable information to have, and thank you for those details. The only thing I can think of is maybe there is some issue between the bank and our system that caused this. Thank you for your continued patience — I know this is frustrating, particularly since you did not commit fraud.

I should note that when I write “fraud” in my line items, I don’t mean “You are a fraudster!” I mean that there is a mark of fraud somewhere in the system: us, the bank, a third-party — the issue is flagged as fraud but we’re not making accusations, just getting the issue to the proper team for review.

Oddly, I just sent an email to the team asking why our players were getting this message when they purchase from us. Some people are cheated by third-party sellers. Some players do use a fake/fraudulent CC to purchase from us. But the message that some people are getting is sort of mixed up.

I’m sorry for the confusion — for you and for others who got that message — and I’m working on getting things more clearly expressed for everyone.

Folks — This thread is quite lengthy, and I’m finding when I have an opportunity to do a review, I’m sometimes looking at issues that are fully resolved or have had updates that the player received after s/he asked for help in this thread.

I need to find a way to do these reviews more efficiently, to allow me to help those of you in this thread but also attend to other posts, too, and to attend to my other responsibilities (which extend well beyond the forums). Therefore, I’m going to set my post immediately above as a marker.

If your issue is not on the list above, if the issue is still current, and if it is at least three (3) days old, please re-post briefly here.

I don’t need a lot of details in your post, but I do need to know that the issue is still current and that you haven’t had an final answer from Support.

Hi Gaile Gray!

I’m nearing a 1 week ban now. No response has been made after my ticket was changed to the [RR] status. Any chance you can help me out in any way ? My ticket number is 121108-002427

I’m looking at this right now and I’ll be sending an email because I don’t understand the situation. Can you tell me when you purchased? And when the payment processed? That would be super helpful information to have as I discuss this with the team responsible for fraud reviews. Thank you for that information!

Hello Gaile,

Still no answer today … :/

If I update my ticket, Will I be put in the last on the queue ?

Here’s the statut of my ticket in your last update :

121103-000852 Fraudulent purchase; under review

If it’s “under review”, Why I don’t have any answers yet ? :/

If updating your ticket moves you to the back of the queue, that is completely stupid. They should just review everyone’s ticket by this section of the number -000852, but they obviously don’t cause my number is like 139 and its going on a week I’ve been banned, and the only thing I’ve been told is “escalated for further review” whatever that is suppose to mean, why couldn’t they just take care of it when they looked at it the first time. I’m probably gonna miss The Lost Shore because of their flawed banning system, I also wouldn’t be surprised if they removed this post. And if I sound angry, sorry it’s not toward you.

Updating does not move you back to the end of the queue, have no fear! BUt please remember to always give me your 12-digit incident number so I can help.

Still no help after countless posts here, as said Gaile, I can’t access the answer you gave me, didn’t receive it via mail and I have issues with creating a Support Account.

Here’s what I see in the ticket — let me know later if this does not work for you:

I see that the last time you have logged in to your Guild Wars account and spoke with Kimmes the Historian was a while ago. Please log in to the game and speak with (living) Kimmes the Historian and check out your monuments. Then log in to Guild Wars 2 and speak with (ghost) Kimmes the Historian and see if he’s got your items for you. If you still don’t have them please let us know so that we may look further in to the issue.

Nearing the mark of 2 weeks banned. Still no solution or refund made. Ticket : 121108-002427 Will you guys really force me to do a chargeback?

I understand your questions. I encourage you to continue to discuss this with Support. You have been given a refund, so you have the money in hand. Perhaps there is a way for them to allow you to rejoin the game.

(Account: Mikipedia.4732)

My brother’s account was released and he send a new serial code for reactivate it but after 3 days again nothing. He can’t play from 21 days.
Thanks in advance.

Zack, I looked at the ticket. Has your brother tried accessing the account through the Account Management page and adding the new serial code? He may not need to have Support do that; he may be able to do that himself.

Please update if that works. Thanks.

My account was banned for fraud payment. My friend contact
with support and they said I can update my account with a new serial code… I bought it and tried but I’ve got error with Invalid Region so tried to contact with Support to get info if they can do something with this, but instead any answer my tickets are automaticly marked as “duplicate” and they dont answer.
My ticket numbers are:

and now tried a new one:

Took me around 5 days to get my account back after being wrongfully banned for botting.

There are previous posts in this thread that taught me to provide as much details as possible in the ticket (eg. account name, character name, last 4 digit of credit card, serial code etc.) , hence reducing the time taken for them to investigate your account. Do check back the older posts to learn more.

Hang in there guys.

Hey thanks for getting me an answer Gaile!

121121-000642 The charge authorization failed. You were not charged and will need to create a new account and add a valid code to play.

I thought that it might be the case. Before I go and create a new account. Just wondering if there is any way at all to keep my character? if not it’s no biggie but it would be nice. Also if I create a new account, will I be able to use the same email address as before and use my (Burto.9803) name? or will this not be possible?

Thanks for getting this sorted out at least.

Burto

Glad to help. I wish I could answer the question about continued play on the account (with a valid code, of course). But each situation is different and I think it would be good for you to update your ticket and ask if they can release your account and allow you to add a new, valid code to it, or if you will need to start a new account. It’s not a simple situation, so it’s best to get the word directly from the team. Thanks!

Hi Gaile/Team,

Account has been suspended, similar with my friend who has the same fraudulent retailer. His account was reactivated by buying new game keys, so I bought new game keys from the website, linked it then submitted a ticket of reactivating the account.

As of today, my account was still suspended. [Incident: 121125-000598]

I appreciate your actions regarding on this issue. Thank you in advance.

This is only a day old, and the team will probably reply in the next two days. If not, please post in this thread and I’ll look into the matter. Thanks for understanding.

121115-002569 I followed up on this today
121115-002569 The charge authorization failed. You were not charged and will need to create a new account and add a valid code to play.

Thanks for following up on this, but maybe you can elaborate.

- “Charge authorization failed”: I didn’t think there was a monthly fee with this game. That is why I started playing it. When I signed up, I don’t recall being asked for a credit card. So what was being “charge[d]”?

- “Add a valid code to play”: I was playing, hence that should mean the code was valid. But now is not for some reason that isn’t clear to me.

The bottom line: I paid $60 for a game and now I am being told I can’t use it; that if I want to continue to play the game, I have to spend another $60. No way—that is a scam. So who is it that is trying to screw me over and steal my money: Anet or the place I bought the game?

Regards.

Sure, I can explain. You purchased the game, and on trust, you were allowed to create an account and play while the credit card was being processed. However, somewhere in the process, a question arose about the credit card and they order was voided. (The question could be the validity of the card, a mismatch between the card information and the billing address, any number of things that are given a blanket “fraud alert.”)

The important thing: You were never charged for the game. If you check your CC records, you may have seen an “authorization” at the time you purchased, but that authorization request was removed and again, you did not pay for the game.

121115-002569 I followed up on this today
121115-002569 The charge authorization failed. You were not charged and will need to create a new account and add a valid code to play.

Thanks for following up on this, but maybe you can elaborate.

- “Charge authorization failed”: I didn’t think there was a monthly fee with this game. That is why I started playing it. When I signed up, I don’t recall being asked for a credit card. So what was being “charge[d]”?

- “Add a valid code to play”: I was playing, hence that should mean the code was valid. But now is not for some reason that isn’t clear to me.

The bottom line: I paid $60 for a game and now I am being told I can’t use it; that if I want to continue to play the game, I have to spend another $60. No way—that is a scam. So who is it that is trying to screw me over and steal my money: Anet or the place I bought the game?

Regards.

Sure, I can explain. You purchased the game, and on trust, you were allowed to create an account and play while the credit card was being processed. However, somewhere in the process, a question arose about the credit card and they order was voided. (The question could be the validity of the card, a mismatch between the card information and the billing address, any number of things that are given a blanket “fraud alert.”)

The important thing: You were never charged for the game. If you check your CC records, you may have seen an “authorization” at the time you purchased, but that authorization request was removed and again, you did not pay for the game.

Gaile – While I appreciate your response, we are apparently talking past one another.

I bought the game in a store. The store charged me for the game. Unless that store gave you my credit card—which I am pretty sure they can’t—then what credit card do you have to verify? At no point in the process of regestering my account was I asked to enter a credit card. Thus, I was charged for the game by the store I bought the game at. I have the receipt and bank statement to prove it.

That is why I keep saying “I already paid $60 the game” and I am not paying another $60 just because your company deemed my purchase fraudulent from a store who has already charged me for the game.

So what you seem to be telling me is that the store screwed me over by selling me a game with a fraudulent serial and I need to raise hell with them. Is that what you are telling me?

Regards.

Oh dang, I totally misread this, and I appreciate your giving me this detailed information. I had, as you surmised, assumed this was a purchase from buy.guildwars2.com. Instead, it’s a purchase from a retailer. What the notes indicate is that the code was invalid. This is not uncommon, I’m sorry to say, with non-authorized vendors. Some are great, but some are buying using fraudulent credit cards, re-selling the codes, and when the code is disabled (because their payment is voided due to fraud) then the customer is left with an invalid code.

If you purchase from a third-party, unauthorized vendor then yes, you should definitely pursue a refund so that you can purchase a legitimate code. I’ve found that many vendors will give a refund, although a certain number require persistence to do so. Others, sadly, are “charge and run” and won’t do so. I wish you the best of luck in getting this sorted, and hope you’re back in the game very soon!

Can someone please look into ticket number 121123-001882, this is my husbands account, the game was purchased for him from a friend of ours for his birthday. NC flagged it as a fraudulent purchase but supposedly has since reactivated the account, but my husband no longer has his password and doesn’t remember it and didn’t write it down. Can someone please look into whether the account is active and if so can someone please email him the password or advise how to reset it. A reply in this matter would be greatly appreciated since this ticket has been open since the 23rd. This is the same issue as referenced in ticket 121123-001923

121128-000072 The charge authorization did not pass risk reviews. You were not charged.

He just checked his bank records and found out that he was charged twice for his original purchase and then later refunded twice without any notifications made to him. Does he lose his entire account over this mistake or is there some way he can get his account back after buying the game again? Thanks.

Apparently this person had failed to pass anti-fraud measures. This could be for a lot of reasons, but fraud prevention is a very critical part of doing business, and we will decline purchases that appear questionable. Your friend should discuss the issue with Support to learn if the account can be released to him to add a code. Sometimes, the only code that will be acceptable is a retail (box) code, so if that is an option, he should ask about that possibility when discussing with Support.

After numerous tickets I finally find this thread. Anyways here is the problem I encountered.

I purchase a heavy Dredge Breastplate of the AForge for my Warrior from the Sorrow’s Embrace dungeon merchant for 330 tokens of the moletariate. Shortly after purchasing the breastplate I equipped it and drooled because it looks so awesome. I disconnected shortly after, which is fine it happens, but when I came back online my BP was gone and my chest slot was naked. I searched my entire bags, moused over every item, checked my bank, even checked my alts just in case. No breastplate. On top of that, my tokens were gone as well.

So now I am sitting here missing 330 tokens of the moletariate AND no breastplate to show for it. I really hope you don’t tell me you can’t do anything because this game is honestly holding my interest by a thread (WvW only stays fun for so long). I really hope you can help me out.

While I would like to help you, this is not an account issue. It happened on your account, sure, but it’s not related to inability to access the game, a compromise incident, etc. I really encourage you to contact Support by filing a ticket through the “Ask a Question” tab on that linked page.

My daughter has since created the e-mail (thank goodness it wasn’t taken yet) and I am curious if anything can be done to resend the code to the same e-mail so that she and I can start running together through Tyria.

Hi,

i need someone to look into or investigate, on one of the players that joined my fractal run this week, if thats even possible.

During that run, i was forced to leave the game/group, simply because i have a zero tolerance, when it comes to insults and general bad behaviour.

One of the players decided to insult one of the other players, and i wondered why he/she didnt react at all, a minor indirect low punch to me included, but that wasnt the problem.

I dropped, left the party knowing that its just a game and i could re run the Dungeon anytime. Apparently, either the bad apple or one of the other players thinks diffrently and thought he or she had to send me a mail, letting me know what an #@|#€~i am/was…

Tried to contact this person, but im on his/her iggy list. No chance to actually talk to said person, not sure if taht would even help me. Problem comes, when all it takes is a “bad expierence/run” in an mmorpg, to get

- ingame gold spam again, after 2 months or more?

So, the person who sent me his best wishes or the bad apple of that run, gave away my Character name, even worse i got one mail today with Subject : <Account Name> and the usually nonsense…

TL;DR- kinda

Before that run, i don´t even recall any spam mails at all. After that run, 1x mail per day.

Thank you very much,
Kyma

Please report this to the Support Team. Provide as many details as possible. They will investigate.

My ticket is #121213-000204

All I need is a simple password reset and a change of email.

I’ve provided the code that came with ordering the game TWICE, I’m communicating through the original email that I signed up with, I’ve given the last 4 digits of the CC used to buy the game, and yet after the initial “we’re escalating your ticket” (why??) email, I’ve received no communication.

I haven’t been hacked, I don’t need anything “restored” – I just need my password reset, and I can’t log into the game til that happens. In the meantime, I’m missing out on Wintersday, I missed my guild’s event yesterday, and my chances of feeling like dropping $ on gems for the holiday event is rapidly dwindling.

Gaile, can you kick someone in the tail on this? It shouldn’t even be a complicated ticket.

The team is not able to change your log-in / username as you requested. They are investigating.

Most likely what will happen is they will give the guy a 72 hour suspension and you will not get your gold back. It has been my experience in the past that Anet does little, if anything, to discourage this type of behavior.

We spent a great deal of time and resources to develop a Trading Post and spend it still, ensuring that the system works smoothly. The TP is a very effective means of discouraging scamming. It flat out prevents it! If players choose to go outside the system, please do not point to inadequacy on the part of ArenaNet, for that would be both inaccurate and unfair. Scamming is fully preventable using the robustly developed system offered within the game.

If you wish to complain about something, you can update an existing ticket, but submitting four seems excessive.

actually Gail, ANYTIME you send an email to [email protected], it opens a support ticket, and the ticket goes unanswered, and the anet employees i reach out to say to send an email to that same address. SO what you are basically telling me… is that if we have an issue with the forums, forget it, since no one at arenanet handles the issues and that any real problems are considered to be simple complaints? I will take your high suggestion into consideration but I am following the directions of yourself and others to send emails to the [email protected] address…. and it opens a support ticket, only to be told not to open said tickets as it is excessive. see the viscous circle of confusion and lack of support? why cant someone just own it, and say that the forums are basically a non supported area and that arena net leaves it to its own devices? would be much better than sending us on wild goose chases with an email address ([email protected]) that just goes to a trashcan.

ALSO, most importantly, as pointed out in the initial email, EACH ticket is for separate incidents, so do you suggest I update ONE ticket with multiple problems> or opening a new ticket for each INDIVIDUAL problem?

Yes, the contacts to [email protected] do create a ticket, but it’s not the province of this sub-forum to deal with complaints about forum behavior, posts, or moderation.

I will try to find out a more helpful answer, but the directions I’ve given you are expressly intended to get you into the system and beyond that, the resolution is out of my hands.

As far as updating, since they are separate issues, I guess you certainly can update each of the tickets. I believe it may be possible to merge them, but since that’s not my area of expertise — in that I don’t know the preferences of those working on the forum moderation side of things — you may keep them separate, as they were submitted.

Hello, I am posting in regards to my friend Adelise.5083 as she cannot post it herself. Her account was banned several days ago under suspicion that she was giving Gold in exchange for real money, and it has been at least three days and hasn’t gotten a response.

I can attest, and so has a friend of mine (Parae.3479) that she was not exchanging gold for real money/gold selling, as both of us were receipients in friendly favor.

https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/Friend-banned-wrongfully
This was originally posted as an appeal.

Her ticket number is: 121227-003689

I am also a close friend of Adelise.5083 and I can also attest that she has never asked for any kind of real-world currency in exchange for anything. She is just terribly generous to a fault with her in-game gold, often trying to held her guild-mates or online friends.

Appreciate it if she could be unbanned.

Please do not submit multiple post about the same person. The Code of Conduct speaks againgst “petitions” and we just don’t need them. Everyone is treated fairly and everyone gets a review. No testimonials required!

Alright, Update on Guru’s case, We went back through his credit card purchases and found that for whatever reason, his GW2 Purchase was still pending. It did charge his Card however.

Charges that are pending are "money set aside’ but are not charged to the card. Only a charge is a charge. You didn’t note the ticket number, but if this is still a question and if I have not address it in later posts, please be sure to include the ticket number in each post.

And this is what you do not do, in relation to asking for help. Petitions and mass-postings slow down the process of review, and they are unfair to other players asking for help.

Someone who wants assistance may have one friend make one post about their situation, and we assuredly will review it!

In addition, this post is one day old. Please do not post in the forums until a ticket is 3 days old, or older.

About 130103-000288 again.
You changed the status to under review , my friend was wondering what actualy is under review?
The by arenanet proposed possible refund?
All the “snowflake” bans
Or to actualy see his ban as an individual matter as he proposed.

QAnswer appreciated.

That means I’m not able to provide any more information in this thread, but that the matter will be responded to in the ticket.

Following up on a guild members ban. Hes been gone for awhile and has not received any news for over 7 days now. Just want to know if this could be resolved soon so he could come play with our guild again and Guild Wars 2.

His ticket number is.
130103-000131

One of my fellow Officers from my guild seems to have been banned for some reason. I would like to know if he can get his account back. He really is a good guild member and I would really like to have him back with us. Please whenever you have time look at his ticket Anet. Thanks for the game.

Ticket # : 130103-000131

Yet again, I am asking that players please coordinate, and not post multiple tickets about the same situation. If you’re discussing an issue in the game, in forums, whatever, please one of you say you will post in this thread and then do so. This was easy to spot, as the posts were adjacent to one another. But other situations have had four threads by four people scattered over a full page, and it’s really time consuming to keep opening the ticket, only to realize it’s the one you opened thrice before.

I will review this, but thanks for understanding about not putting up multiple posts about the same ticket (within the same timeframe).

“130105-000178 Resolved” – False

This account has not been “Resolved”. This is my husbands account. Who did you talk to because he has not gotten any emails what so ever. Is this tread fake to keep the cries of bad support down? It has been 11 days and we have not gotten an answer from anyone. If you are talking to someone the account has been compromised and you are talking to someone who stole the account.

This response was sent to your husband on January 5th:


Hello,

Thank you for getting back to us.

I have reset the Guild Wars 2 account password. Please use the following information to log in:

Guild Wars 2 Login Name: {REMOVED}
Password: {REMOVED}

To update your Guild Wars 2 password to something new, login using your current information at https://account.guildwars2.com/ and follow the steps below:

1. Click on the “Edit Profile” link on the left hand side of the page.
2. Under “Change Password,” enter the current password, as well as a new password in the New Password and Confirm Password fields.
3. Click “Save Changes” to complete the password change.

Please let me know if you have any other issues or questions!


Please ask your husband to check his Spam and Deleted email folders, because this was sent out on that date. One concern: Could his email have been compromised? Suggestion: If he does not find this information, or feels that his email account may be in jeopardy, please open a new ticket with a different or preferably new, secure email account and apprise the Support Team about that concern. If email security is fine, he can update the ticket through the support interface.

And no, this forum thread is not fake. I’m pretty sure I prove that every day.

My ticket is 130113-001821 and yes this is my account and yes this my my CC i want this fixed now .

How dare you do this to me , i will NOT fill out any of the stuff you want me to on that, restore my CC so i can buy the stuff i want .

Just because someone thought this was a good idea i want this fixed i have spend hundreds on this game money is not a problem with me.

But doing this to me its like attacking my credit score which to me is very very important i want this fixed and again i will NOT fill out the information they sent me i feel i dont have ,you guys screwed this up and can fix it yourself and it had better be fast.

I really like this game but will leave over this and never play another one of you games again.

I hope by this post you can tell i am mad !!!!

An agent responded today and I think you’ll be reassured by the message that he sent. This absolutely will not affect your credit score! There is an internal system that was developed to provide a level of protection for accounts that make significant purchases. (One protection is against someone making unauthorized purchases, like a child using his/her parent’s credit card and running up a bunch of purchases.)

I want to say that — as a player and a consumer — I totally understand your confusion about this. I am going to discuss the process with some team leads to learn whether there’s a simpler way to allow you to move forward with your desired purchases in a way that still prevents mis-uses on other accounts. But the process that the agent described seems sort of painless to me, and it’ll get you where you want to be, albeit with you taking a bit of extra time to manually input the CC number.

I just had to respond because you were worried about things that would concern me, too, and I sure wanted you to know all was well from a consumer/credit rating standpoint. The limits are internal and are not at all related to you, your card, your rating, anything like that. And I also wanted to thank you for your support of the game!

Hi Gaile, I told my friend that he would have to make a new account however when he attempted to use the second serial code he bought to register (which he paid for and the charge was not denied like how the account was terminated in the first place) And it gave him the error “Serial code already registered” when he entered it in. In your reply I was under the impression that the account is banned as the first serial code is no longer valid and he should make a new account and the second code would work. I’m not sure how your systems would say that two codes would be registered to the banned account. Can you see about releasing the second code that was purchased or refunding the money? The order number is 31099385 for you to look it up.

This is something that your friend needs to continue to discuss with Support. It sounds like something they’ll need to research from the codes on up.

While technically resolved, it does nothing to answer my question. I have access restored to my account, but I don’t even know why I was banned. I don’t even know why it was restored.

What happened? How can I make sure it doesn’t happen again? I didn’t even get an apology for the interruption of service.

From what I’m seeing the extensive notes involving your account, it appears your account was compromised. We retrieved your account from the control of a hacker and returned it to you. I do not feel that an apology is called for, since we were not at all involved in nor responsible for the fact that the account was hacked.

I’m glad that you’re back in the game. You’re welcome to discuss this with the team via the ticket if you have additional questions.

Appealing to response to “130122-001149 Final answer was sent to your brother in December; will not be responded to again.”

Dear Gaile,

I find it ridiculous to ban my brother’s account for sending me 30 gold. In the December, he was helping our guildie to craft a legendary weapon and supported him with some gold to buy materials. This is a gesture of giving a friend an e-Christmas gift during Christmas. He was then maligned for gold selling and banned for the 1st time. We verified with proof of purchase and testimonials that he is NOT a gold trader. It was then cleared that he did not break any of your clauses such as ‘engaged in gathering items to be sold for cash or other items with real world value.’

2 weeks ago, he sent ONLY 30 gold to help me on crafting 2 runes and got banned. I even returned him some gold right after I run a few runs of raids the next day. Does this break any clauses of ‘engaged in gathering items to be sold for cash or other items with real world value.’ at all?? Why is he banned again???? Please check the game log to verify.

Support ticket#: 130122-001149
Account name: Saban.1986

That is not why the account was terminated. As your brother was told back in December in Ticket 121212-000003, multiple flags point to RMT; no single transaction caused the account termination.

I will ask the team to review, but I pray this is not a waste of time.

Hi Gaile,

it’s been two days since I’ve posted here (130127-001362) to get your attention, and I’ve received an automated message in my support account which doesn’t make any sense…
Does that mean I just need to wait little longer?

I really don’t understand why it takes too long to get my account reinstated… I have never engaged in RMT and only incident I received gold from another player was my brother…

Two days ago, this ticket would have been only 1 day old, not 3 (as the thread requires). Having looked at the ticket just now, I see that it’s confusing about whether you’re asking for yourself or your brother. I noticed that you have written a response, and I will ask the team to give that a look and review the other notes that you submitted.

This is preposterous. My account wasn’t hacked. When you disabled the account for being hacked – it was actually ME playing in WvW.

If my account HAD been hacked, all of my gold, high level ores and what have you would have been sold. If someone had tried to access my account other than me – I would have received an email that xxx was trying to access from xxx (which I did back in October and since changed my password) – but since then I did not.

Your system is faulty. I wasn’t hacked.

The notes on the ticket indicate access from China and Taiwan and two email changes. Please do be aware that not all hacked accounts are stripped of goods. However, I asked the team to look again and I believe they’ve reinstated the account.

Attention: The Forums Code of Conduct expressly prohibits petitions. That includes people posting valueless posts with testimonials on behalf of another player.

ONE forum member may post here to ask for a review of a friend or family member’s ticket. Multiple posts are unacceptable, and must stop. I have just wasted time, and our moderator team will now need to waste time, dealing with a number of off-topic posts. Folks are not reinstated because their friends ask for it; they are reinstated because they are innocent of wrong-doing and that is determined based on the facts, not the numbers of pleas submitted on their behalf. The outcome of appeals will be determined fairly, without any input from petitions, testimonials, or other “contributions” from third parties.

The issue my friend has means she can no longer post on the forum so here I am instead and it has been 3 days.

[Incident: 130204-001927]

It looks like her account got compromised, and thus accused of RMT by whichever pest got in to it. I saw 2 Accepted IP addresses which have nothing to do with her. The only locations relevant to her are in Denmark (DK) So it was probably both of those. (we also removed these to hopefully stop more damage)

She has now Scanned for viruses, changed passwords on absolutely everything and is formatting her computer today.

She just had her account reactivated but it’s been trashed. All items sold/salvaged etc by the little bugger who got in to it. Can she get her account restored to before it happened? We believe it was late Thursday night/early Friday morning around 1AM – 2AM.

Thanks.

Please have your friend update her ticket — the one in which she was informed of the account hack and reinstatement — and she can discuss the possibility of an account restoration with the team.

The next asked him for his serial code even though he gave it in the support ticket.
They also asked for his credit card info, order ID, and zip code.
They really need all this?
His account is banned so he can’t log into the support site to edit this ticket.
He emailed them back, will they get the info that way??

His support account is separate from his game account. He can log into the support account just fine.

I was suspended for 3 days on the grounds of a naming violation. I’m totally fine with that, and the ban is already up at this point. My real issue is that there is no way to change my offensive name without deleting my character. If I hop on my necromancer, I’m sure I’ll just be suspended again for another 3 days.

Would you help me change my character name? I already created a ticket on the arenanet support department, but I haven’t gotten any response or help from them. The link to my ticket is https://en.support.guildwars2.com/app/account/questions/detail/i_id/10696970. It’ll explain the issue fully if this isn’t enough.

Thanks so much!

You should be able to access the character and change the name. In fact, you should be required to do that. You will not get flagged again because you won’t be entering the game until the name is changed to an acceptable name.

If you find that you are not given the option to rename, please provide me your 12-digit ticket number. (The link does not work for others; it’s individual to you.)

I don’t know if it is the right topic to put my problem in. Had a blocked account, flagged as a fraudulent charge and so on blah blah. Long story short i have new code, and Suzanne from NCsoft Payment support wrote: “At this time, we have reviewed your account and have decided to release the account to you. The serial code has been permanently disabled as a result of the purchase using a fraudulent credit or debit card or stolen PayPal account.” and “In order to regain access to the game, you must re-purchase Guild Wars 2 again and apply a new, valid code to your account.” So as far as i understand i should be able to add new code to my existing account. Thing is i don’t see this option anywhere in account management. Am i looking for right thing, or should i register this code as new one, just insert my old account data? Thanks in advance!

What this means is that you use the Register page to add a new serial code. Try this page for instructions: https://en.support.guildwars2.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/9054

If you’re not able to do that or have further questions, you’re welcome to update your ticket and an agent will help.

[130208-001830 You friend was using a hack; the account will remain closed]

this is wrong, you need to look into this alittle further.

I play with this guy daily, and he does not hack… he lags out alot (and we all get to hear about it on vent), but otherwize it would be nice if you elaborate alitte on how you came to the conclusion that he was hacking… he hardly wvw’s, doesn’t have a legendary, and dies pretty regularly on our dungeon runs.

Please let us know what’s up, or at least let him know… we have a guild waiting for our officer to come back.

Your friend should continue the discussion in his ticket. Certainly the agent can take another look at the data, and if there was an error the account will be reinstated. I feel that would be the best route, rather than us discussing the nuts ‘n’ bolts here. Thanks for understanding.

Me and my girlfriend stopped playing Guild Wars 2 around the start of January, maybe mid. We tried to get back into the game but every password we used for her hasn’t worked. We tried to ‘reset’ the password but no emails go through or I get the common “Error Contact Support” when trying to reset. Please can you manually reset her password or something? Been waiting 3+ Days. :< Thank you.

I am not sure yet, but when I checked the ticket it looks like it was closed. I just reopened it and assigned it to the team who will help you. I am sorry for this, and I’ll follow up to make sure it’s attended to.

130428-001424 You need to answer questions sent to you 4/28 to verify you are the account owner

Sorry i just read at forum now Im behind updated ..But sir as i write again my original post here :

I send a support ticket last April 28 2013 that my yahoomail was hacked i cant access it. And that yahoomail is my guildwars2 log in info. Although i can still log in at guild wars2 website and client luncher but still im worry about my yahoomail i cant access it, im doing all password recovery in that yahoomail but someone change the info inside because its uncorrect security question. I cant recieve emails from Arenanet. So i want to change my Guild wars2 email. Its been 8 days now i dont recieve email from Arenanet from my email i give in my support ticket to send the reply to me.

Pls look at my ticket number is 130428-001424

SO THE QUESTION SIR IS I DIDNT RECIEVE AN EMAIL FROM ARENANET TO VERIFY THAT IM THE OWNER because as i stated in my post my guildwars 2 yahoomail was hacked. So even if u send it to that email i cant access it..Although i can normally log in at website and play GW2 but i cant access my GW2 yahoomail. SO PLS SIR CHECK MY TICKET # AGAIN BECAUSE I PUT THERE INSIDE MY NEW EMAIL WHERE I WANT YOU TO SEND TO ME THE VERIFICATION IF IM THE ACCOUNT OWNER.

I always check my new email that i give in my ticket # where i want you send your reply to me but i didnt recieve anything. Thats why because you send to wrong or my hacked gw2 email.

Please go to the Support page (click above) and log into your support account from there. You do not need to get an email — you can read the responses there. You should also update via a NEW ticket to provide the new email address. This way, if someone has access to your old email address, he/she cannot read the conversation.

Pls recheck my ticket number again, I didnt recieve an email because i think you sent to my GW2 email that was hacked and i cant open it in yahoomail.

Pls resend the email back again to my new email i put in my ticket # inside. For me able to reply from Arenanet about some question if Im the account owner. Thank you

The problem is, you’re attempting to change a user name for an account that we cannot establish that you own. That is why we don’t just change email addresses randomly, but send questions for you to answer. Sending them to your new address makes no sense, because we have no way of knowing whether you are the person who owns the account or the person who is trying to steal it by attempting to get us to change the user name.

It’s sad, but we must be extremely cautious and even “suspicious” of such requests, to ensure that we do not enable someone to steal another account. You need to access and answer through the support website if you cannot access through the emails. Thanks for understanding.

reference your post above – ticket #130609-000685 Resolved – is not resolved completely – two accounts were involved. Mine has been restored and for that you have my heartfelt thanks. However my wife is still unable to login with her account – seems no action was taken. Her account details were included in the ticket. Please help us out here so that marital bliss may be restored as well.

Each person must submit a ticket for his/her own account. If HER details are in YOUR ticket, please ask her to start up a new one.

Aww don’t shoot the messenger! I was just asked for a favor, I didn’t really know about the details. I should’ve asked, sorry. It is reassuring to know that the tickets really are being attended to even though there must be tons of them.. THANKS!

Hey no worries. Just tryin’ to keep things organized.

Gaile:

Sorry not trying to jump Q or anything. We have been dealing with this now for so long, missing all the good new stuff, and it is kind of confusing and frustrating working with this e-mail system where you are all the time having to try and guess what might be going on and no real explanations are ever offered. You sound like you genuinely have a handle on this stuff though and get results. Our incident involved a group of players and of that group every body has been fixed except the one person for whom it matters the most. If it is my fault because I did not do things in the approved manner then all I can say is my intentions were to try to save a lot of duplication.

My apologies.

130601-000136 Need to verify ownership of account. I re-sent the response that the team sent to him on 31 May. He needs to answer the questions they asked and they will help him.

Hello,

Just spoke to him. Seems like he is not getting any e-mails from GW2 Support Team (there were none even in spam box), but he got 2 surveys: first on 3rd June and second on 4th June, both from [email protected]. Could it be caused by some strange filters on mail services? Is there any other way to contact and verify ownership?

Big thanks for quick answer

Best Regards,
C.

I just sent him the email myself. Tell him to check Junk and Spam. Some email providers blocks our mails. Make sure his email is secure and still in his sole possession.

If he still doesn’t see it, have him email [email protected] and be SURE to mention the ticket number.

To those asking for changes to the Display Name: There are very good reasons why we do not offer the changes as a service at this time. It’s important in any game — and especially in an MMO with the high number and visibility of player interactions — to create a “personal history” for an account. I don’t mean your in-game “personal story” but a history of your account as viewed in the game.

If we allow changes of display names, a person who has been harassing another player will be hidden from that victim’s sight. A person who has built up a reputation for cheating, or botting, or doing other breaches of the UA, becomes invisible to those players who were aware of the issue and were awaiting action on the matter. Several other factors of “individual accountability” can be negated by simply hiding behind a new display name.

I take on board things like typos in making a name. But assessing the difference between a change and a correction can be difficult, and at this time, we’re holding firm on the “no changes” policy. There are two reasonable exceptions:

  • An offensive name will be changed — once — and it will be changed by a GM using an anagram system, so the user does not get the privilege of choosing the second name.
  • A display name will be changed to prevent the disclosure of personal information. For instance, the display name is the player’s real name or even email address. We have improved the account creation process to make it clear how display names function, and we even have expanded the User Agreement to accomplish the same objective. If players know that your display name is actually displayed in the game and on the forums, they’ll be less likely to use a name that poses a security risk. If they know that using an offensive name results in a randomly chosen name, they’ll be less likely — one hopes — to choose an unacceptable name.

Some of the same arguments about display name changes also applied to character names, but as you know, we made that option available when the feature could be properly developed. At some point we may make a feature available that allows a player to change his/her display name, but if we do, I am confident it will take into consideration all the risks of those changes, and address them effectively.

In the meantime, and with all due respect, we will decline to change display names unless they involve one of the two exceptions cited above.

Hello,

Once again going to refresh ticket #130601-000136. Still no answer, no info about my previous post (https://forum-en.guildwars2.com/forum/support/account/Tickets-for-Review-3-days-and-older-merged/page/73#post2255690). It is about month now since ticket were made and it is still not solved ;( I know it neither your fault nor my friends, but some help would be nice.

Best Regards,

We must verify that you own the account, so please update to answer the questions in the ticket. Please check your Spam filter, because sometimes the survey isn’t filtered by your mail sender, but the answer to the ticket IS filtered. And yes, it’s frustrating!

An agent is going to send this to you right now. Please look for it in your Spam Filter, Junk Mail, and any automatic blocks that you may set up, because we truly are trying to help.

I submitted a ticket about 7 days ago to have my email changed. I listed all the information needed for the email change. Please respond soon.

P.S You guys really need to add the option to change email addresses in the account page. The system you have in place is beyond fail.

If a feature isn’t added, consider that there may be security reasons that prevent what looks to the average person as a “simple option.” Attempts to change the log-in name on an account are a significant flag for us, as it is often an indicator of a hacked account. Please consider the sensitivity of the process and allow the team to handle each request, properly and conservatively.

You have not provided your ticket number here. That is essential for a follow-up.

The account was given back to me, as it should have been.

No, it was given to you in error, an error that was explained and rectified some time ago. Through more than twenty five (25!) support responses across multiple tickets, and after a full response to a BBB complaint as well (and I just updated that an hour ago), we have tried to explain that although you purchased the account, you gave it to another individual who registered and played on it. The registrant is the account owner, no you. This is not your account and we will not give it to you; we will not give you a new serial code; we will not issue a refund for a year-old account.

In your most recent contact, you made rude and threatening comments — and not for the first time. You bought the account, gave it to someone, and are now attempting to reclaim it, as is he. That is not the way things work and due to the complex claims and counterclaims — all of which have some degree of merit but none of which is conclusive — the account has been terminated. This matter truly is closed.

I also changed password on my gw2 acount, hotmail (even though i see no sign of them logging in there) and every other user i have logged on to since the hack and before. I did also download the mobile app to increase security so ATM i just want to get my profile back as it was so i can start playing again.

They havent been on my user since that night they hacked me except from something in TX which i hear is a bug

thank you in advance

Hello. I need ticket #11290 looked at. I sent an email reply authorizing the action but I don’t think it reached Guild Wars 2 support.

Because I didn’t think it went through, 4 days later I submitted ticket #24141 through the Guild Wars 2 support website to follow-up on the previous ticket. I got a response back from #24141 but it was not the resolution that I wanted for ticket #11290.

Thank you!

The second ticket was responded to about 2 hours ago.

I’m posting two ticket numbers, though both may be for the same person. Apparently they’re having trouble with e-mail authentication. 1) Request #22378 “Account authentication e-mail”
2) Request #37616 “Account authentication e-mail”

I am convinced that your friend is caught in a cycle where he submits a ticket but never gets a response. Here is what an agent wrote him:

Thanks for getting back to us.

It’s possible that you have placed us on a block/black list. Please check your webmail and/or email client settings to ensure that “ArenaNet [email protected]” isn’t blocked. If you have blocked a similar sender, I would suggest unblocking it as it’s possible that your provider is detecting incoming mail with similar domain and is blocking those as well.

I would also suggest accessing your email directly through the email provider’s web page, and not through a mail reader (such as Outlook or Thunderbird) or a mobile device (such as a smart phone or tablet) since these sometimes do not receive messages that have been flagged as spam. Double-check your spam folder to make sure the message isn’t in there.

You can also set up a filter or “safe sender” in your mail account to prevent our messages from being sent to spam. Please set up a filter for both of the following domains: @ncsoft.com and @guildwars2.com

If your email provider does not have a safe senders feature, adding these emails ([email protected] and [email protected]) to your contacts list may also prevent them from being blocked by spam filters.

Now, at this point, I’m wondering if he needs to disable authentication. This is not a step to take lightly, and obviously we’d need to verify ownership of the account and so forth, before undertaking that step. Would you kindly ask him if that’s the option he wants to take? If so, can he respond to this ticket — #12813 — or does he have nothing to which he can respond? If he can’t respond, then have him create a new ticket — something I very seldom recommend but this is an exception — and have him let the team know of his preferences. Ask that he please include the numbers of all his other tickets, too, as a partial form of verification and as a means for us to close all of them out as we help him.

If I need to relay info, will do so, but hopefully the tips in the email from the support agent will do the trick.

I wanted to post to say that I have been asked to lead a class here at ArenaNet, and I’ve had to focus my attention on that over the last few days. Please do know that I will review this thread tomorrow and that I will get to each of the requests with an update as soon as I can!

By the way: If you requested a gem refund in relation to the change of infinite gathering tools from soulbound to account-bound status, you can count on us taking care of you, but the numbers of such requests are high. We’re delighted with the game update that fulfilled so many player requests, and we ask for just a bit more patience on this particular issue. I hate to say “The money is in the mail” but saying “The money soon will be in the mail” is spot on.

Hi Gaile. 75690 and 9271 are ticket numbers for a player that is having issues with a password reset. His original ticket was sent in on Oct. 26.

This person has submitted a bunch of ticket; with all due respect, he needs to stop doing that. The original ticket is the only “live” ticket, and he was asked for account ownership verification information in 9271. He needs to respond to that request for information. (He also needs to stop submitting new tickets; they are unnecessary and impede our ability to help this player and everyone else.)

Please ask him to review the response in 9271 and answer the verification questions. If he is not getting our e-mails, then he needs to reach out to us via a different e-mail provider and refer to ALL his ticket numbers so we can close or merge the earlier ones and help him now.

Hello to all who read this and I appreciate anyone that may shed some light on my issue.

I have submitted a support ticket for my issue and did get a response that did not help my specific issue or answer my question. I do appreciate that the response was quick, but unfortunately not helpful, which brings me to here. Any help is most appreciated..

My problem is I unequipped the bone pick and the jack-in-the-box tool on my warrior named “Ultimate Damage” and deleted that character and remade him to switch races.

I didn’t realize that those tools were soul-bound and now they sit in my personal bank to which i can not remove them unless i delete them. moments later I learned of the change in those tools going to account bound.

My question is seeing as i can not pull those tools out of my bank without destroying them is my only choice to re-buy those tools???

If you have continuing questions about your ticket, please update the ticket and discuss with an agent. This is not something that can be answered by a forum member.

Thank you for looking into the matter.
Have answered the queries just minutes after I got them to the 91920. Somehow I think that this answer hasn’t reached back to the service desk. Can you guys check your spam filter, no pun intended? Sometimes in my experience gmail.com sets googlemail.com as senders address, that might confuse your service desk tool. If this is the case you probably has godzillion of unsolved issues due to misplaced replies from costumers… Ill try to reply to Brandon again now. But how would I know if my mails comes thru or not?

I do not see your response. I am alerting team members to check out your theory about gmail and googlemail.

In the meantime, do you have an alternate email account through which you can contact us, including the existing ticket number? I’m so sorry for this inconvenience!

Hello Gaile, I posted here a while ago and you mentioned that an agent will be taking a look at this “today or tomorrow” that was 3 days ago and now almost 2 weeks that I have submitted my ticket. Is it really that slow or is my issue not resolvable? If the latter it would be great to get a reply so I can try to solve it another way.

Again, request # 71064

Thanks.

You’re using Yahoo. As I have posted, Yahoo has known issues with our e-mails, and it’s not something we can control.

159633 – Resolved. This was an account ownership dispute, but the account is with the rightful owner now.

Then you gave the account to the wrong guy or whoever hacked his account because I told him of this and he can’t log in. Good job Anet.

No, from everything we were able to ascertain, your friend was not the original and therefore the actual account owner. If he bought the account through us, or through a retailer, and can prove that with adequate information, have him reopen the ticket. But be aware, someone was able to provide much more information that proved original ownership and that was the persuasive element in this case.

I am posting for my friend who has not been able to access his account for the last 6 days and he has submitted two tickets during that time with no followup. his ticket numbers are #241860 and #258129. His email that he has been using for the game was an email given to him in college and so the email became inactive 6 days ago. He’s trying to change to the email [[[redacted for security]]]. And his Display Name is the [[[redacted for security]]].

He has already sent the other information in the emails to your support staff

Hey Phenom,

I know you want to help your friend, and I’m sure we can get this sorted for him. But please never include sensitive information like an email address in a forum post. I redacted all that stuff, including his display name.

General update 14 February 2014:

There are several unusual types of tickets being handled right now. This means that, due to volume, certain kinds of tickets are taking longer than three days to resolve. We’re working to get back to the 3-day turn-around time. Here are some of the types of tickets that may take longer than three days:

  • Refund requests (harvesting tools, Flame-Kissed Armor, etc.)
  • Account compromise (“hacking”) incidents
  • Requests for account restorations
  • Account disputes
  • Missing items

That list is not comprehensive, but off the top of my head those are some of the more complex tickets that simply simply may take more time to resolve. Having said that…

Please allow five days before posting in this thread for the time being.

I will update when we’re back to the normal, faster turn-around times. Thanks for understanding!
