Virtual property lost due to user error
If we can verify that your loss of virtual property was the direct result of:
. . . "Any other user error.
We will attempt to restore the virtual property.
We reserve the right to refuse restoration if we feel an excessive number of requests have been made in this particular category or if an undue amount of time has passed since the item or character was lost. We do not wish to encourage career victims, nor will we penalize players who legitimately make the occasional slip-up. "
What he did was contrary to the policy above that he stated because I hardly ever submit such tickets. The only possible mistaken exception to this in the last year would have been when Wrath of the "Glitch" king glitched and didnt' drop any loot at all when we killed Hodir on hard mode; this was not my fault at all. It was a known bug in the game.
If this isn't remedied quickly, Blizzard Entertainment will have lost two customers for life (myself and my son). Seriously!! We are your customers. Logically, if you treat your customers like this, the natural consequence is that YOU WILL LOSE ME AS A CUSTOMER!
Petition: Last night I accidentally bought the shaman healer tier 10 shoulders instead of the elemental dps tier 10 shoulders. They both had the exact same SP, haste & crit buff, & look identical. Sadly, i gemmed & put the sons of hodir chant on them, only to realize that they were healer shoulders. PRETTY PLEASE change those shoulders out for the elemental shaman shoulders (without any gem if necessary). That represents WEEKS worth of work for the frost emblems.
Answer: I would like to apologize for not being able to address this issue while you were online. I have looked into the case further for any possible efforts into assisting in this request. Unfortunately, the item requested is no longer eligible for reimbursement / swap. A system was implemented into the game (patch 3.1) to allow players to correct any mistakenly purchased item up to 2 hours, and not modified in any way. Please refer to our forum post at http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=16364516310&postId=163627436489&sid=1#0. If you feel this policy should change, please post on our Suggestion Forums. I apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you for playing World of Warcraft and have a good day.
