Using Old-CD Keys for new accounts

#0 - May 12, 2010, 11:07 p.m.

A friend wants to start a new WoW account with recruit a friend to help him with new characters. He has an old account but wants to start a new one.

My question is if he cancels his old account, can he use his old CD-keys on his new account.

if you cancel your wow account, do your CD-Keys become void? Or can they be re-used if an account is canceled but they change their minds and want to start up again with a new account?

Authentication Keys are not able to be recycled in that way, Rclancy. You can discontinue your subscription to World of Warcraft at any time through your Account Management page, please note, however, that this is simply canceling your subscription, not your account as a whole (this is slightly misleading with the "Cancel Account" being the link near the bottom of the page). At any time, you are able to reinstate your account and pickup where you left off.

If your friend would like to take advantage of the Recruit-A-Friend program they will need to create a new account using the e-mail invitation sent to him through: (https://www.worldofwarcraft.com/account/recruit-a-friend.html).
