Transfering characters to different accounts regardless of last name.

Just tried it and blizz sent me an email saying that the only way they can take the account off of bnet is if i tell them the other battlenet account name so they can verify the information. All i said in the email was that i wanted to unattach it and put it on my other account so that i dont have to pay for two accounts at once, do you think i should have said something else?

Finally I can buy a hunter LOL.

So I recently inherited an account from a friend, based on what I've read in this thread, all he has to do is email blizzard and have them remove the WoW account from his battle.net account? Then I merge it to mine, and a month later I should be able to transfer his characters?

didn't work. Tried it via email and telephone. Both told me that they would never disconnect a WoW-Acc from a battle.net-Acc unless you give them your new battle.net-Acc with the same surename.

I just sent an email out now for an account I bought. I hope this works!

I did this 6 months ago,transfered one hunter from my friend. I created a BN account which has the same last name as his. then no problem with transfering

This does not work. Tried it about 3-4 months ago and blizzard replied they'd never do that.

I tried it this week. The Blizzard employee responded that they do remove Battle.net accounts, but they have to be the ones that connect it with another Battle.net account. In other words, they will take it off one and put it on another for you. No chance to put it on another account with a different name.

Well, the last time I tried to do this was sometime, I only decided to make this thread just cause I was telling people that day and a few people were saying they didn't know.

Back then I got 2 of my friends who'd stopped playing to contact Blizzard saying they wanted to disconnect their accounts from their battlenet account and they did it, then I conencted them to my battlenet and after a month transfered them over.

I guess they've changed it since then, its a long shot but you could always say that you put in fake information when creating your account (make up some story like you were worried about identity theft, since some people do do that), although I can't say how successful it was.

I assumed it was the same now as it was back then where you could just contact them and they'd do it for you.
