Merge an account that's already merged?

I know this is probably a dumb question and I'm probably going to get flamed by idiots that don't understand the difference between ignorant and stupid, but...

My friend used Recruit-A-Friend to get me into World of Warcraft. I have been playing WoW for 5 years prior, just not on my own account. Since I hadn't made a Battle.net account of my own, when he recruited me I was immediately signed into his Battle.net. Now I have Starcraft 2 and I would like to merge that WoW account into my new Battle.net I had made for Starcraft. Is there any way that I can possible get that account off of his and into mine?

I want to make sure I understand the situation, Chichical. Your friend sent you a Recruit-A-Friend invitation that was applied to his account by mistake. You have since made a Battle.net account of your own and added a StarCraft II license. You are requesting the Recruit-A-Friend account be transferred to the new Battle.net account with the StarCraft II license. Is all of this correct?

If the name registered to both Battle.net accounts are the same I do not see why Account Services would not be able to assist you with this request. However, if the names are different, both of you may wish to contact Account Services together to see if an exception can be made in this case as typically an account registered in one name cannot be transferred to another account in a different name.
