Full version showing as trial acct in game

#0 - June 17, 2010, 8:08 p.m.

I purchased a full version of vanilla WoW from the Blizz online store and set up my Battle.net account. This was never a Recruit a Friend or trial account - only purchased full version. When I log into Battle.net, it shows the game as a full version. In game, though, I still have many trial restrictions on my account - can't mail, can't use the auction house, can't trade, can't join a guild. I can, however, join a party. Why does my full version of the game have trial limitations, esp since it was never a trail acct in the first place? Do I have to reach a certain level with my first character before I can access these features? Thanks!

No, this is a security feature, it will take a little time. I am terribly sorry for any inconvenience. I do show this account you are posting under as a full, original WoW version, so this account will just need to have a little age on it before the restrictions drop.

Thank you, blue post, for the quick and informative reply!

Any idea how long? About the same as a trial acct maybe, 3 days or so?

Aye, it's usually about 72 hours.
