Hey I just bought a paid char race change and I wasn't sure what race I wanted to be. I decided on just going female gnome & apparently that makes me full retard.

"Everybody knows you never go full retard. " -Kirk Lazarus.

Unfortunately I did & I'm stuck on going female gnome. I don't want to pay the $15 for the character recustomization service either, if at all possible..

If there's anyway we can fix this, thanks in advance.

If not I'll brb seppuku =[

Q u o t e:
No sir they do not. They don't have the tools to do so.


We have a number of tools that help us to look into an issue that you are having but in the end a Billing issue can only be resolved by Billing staff who have been properly trained and vetted for such tasks. :)

Q u o t e:

I put in a ticket explaining what happened and a GM fixed my problem for me seeing as how I had paid for the service and I didn't receive what I wanted.


What happened, Wickedtruth, is you didn't log into your character between steps. What happens when you transfer is if the name is already taken on the destination realm your character is flagged for a name change. In order to remove that flag you must attempt to log into the character where you will be prompted to select a new name. You immediately initiated the Faction Change service which gave you the choice of a new name, but it doesn't remove the previous flagging. So when you were done and you went to log in you are prompted with the original name flagging.

I am sorry for the inconvenience this caused you, Wickedtruth, it should be noted that your petition was resolved after 6 days 1 hour and 17 minutes. Not the kind of queue times that we like to see but not 2 weeks. :)

Queue times have been much approved and are currently around 3-5 hours.
