Linking an accidental Bnet account?

My dad made two seperate accounts for me and my little brother before the battle.net merger and when the merger came around I made a main battle.net with my account and my dad's account linked together, but my little brother accidently made his own battle.net account completely seperate from mine / my fathers.

Now that Starcraft2 is coming out, is there a way we can get the extra battle.net account linked to the main one so that we don't have to pay 120$ for two seperate download/discs for two different accounts?

Just want to know if this is possible, its really irritating.

Q u o t e:
It's not against to share accounts if you are under the legal age and the person you are sharing it with is your legal parent/guardian.


i.e we are both under 18 and my father is my legal parent guardian


Though true, and it sounds like everyone in this thread has a good understanding of how our policies work in this regarding, I feel it necessary to clarify that a bit so there is no confusion for those who may be reading.

A World of Warcraft account may be accessed by two people, that is one adult (that is registered to the account) and one minor child (that the registered adult is the parent or legal guardian of). If the adult has more than one minor child only one should be accessing a specific account.

Thus you may have Account A, that Child A accesses, along with their parent and Account B, that Child B accesses, along with their parent. Account A should not be accessed by Child B or vice versa.

Fiddlesticks, if your father wishes to merge your little brother's account with his current Battle.net account he'll need to contact our Billing and Account Services department. They may be able to help.

You can call 1 (800) 592 5499 (1-800-59-BLIZZARD) 7AM-8PM (PST/PDT) for live representation.
Australian users should please call 1-800-041-378 if the standard 800 line does not work.

Lines are fairly busy but keep trying and you should eventually reach someone.

Good luck.

so we have to pay 180$ if we want to play at the same time

Yes, you would need more than one game if you wanted to both play at the same time, Fiddlesticks.
