Hi, well this is a bummer and I hope i can be helped. My real life friend quit wow about 3-4 months ago

and gave me his account which I used it to level a rogue, since I have a mage on my main account. I

used the mage on my account to pretty much run instances and power level the rogue (two screens)

Now that my rogue is high enough and no longer requires help from my mage to level quickly i was

trying to transfer it to my own account and to my frustration discovered I could not. I do not think this is

fair since I have been paying for the account since i started playing the rogue and im transfering a

character i leveled on my own. My friend played a mage and is 70 on the account that the rogue is on

and thats not what i wish to transfer only the character i put work into for the last 2 months.

Straight up account restrictions—

Q u o t e:
Account Restrictions:

    - Transfers between accounts can be done only if you are the subscriber on both accounts. (We do not support the transfer of characters between friends, guild mates, or family members.)
    - Trial accounts are not eligible to send or receive characters. To remove this restriction please upgrade to a paid account.
    - Characters may not be transferred to or from a locked, suspended, or banned account.
    - Customers with expansion accounts cannot transfer characters to a non-expansion account. The reverse is accepted.


'Bout as frank as they come, Accused. I fear you will not be able to claim the rogue in question as your own or transfer it successfully.

Ho'kay. Answered post is answered. Killing this now before it mutates and starts to consume little children.
