Hello Blizzard tech support, I purchased an account of world of warcraft on february 1st and downloaded the game client from elsewhere on the internet. Upon installation, I was never prompted to give an authentication key, even though I was supplied with one when I purchased it, as well as a Transaction ID. Probably because of this, there are certain in-game features that I am prohibited from doing stating that "Trial Accounts" may not do so. How do i input my authentication key?

As a few players have mentioned, it can take up to 72 hours for an online upgrade to fully process through our system, Kiljaded. While the leveling restriction is lifted immediately, other trial restrictions will continue to be in place until the upgrade has successfully completed.
