New Recruit a Friend Exploit????

[BaddyMcBad]

By adding a month of game time using a prepaid card available at the blizzard store, it automaticly extends the time. Example; before gamecard added - expires 11/11/11, and when he added a gamecard it extended to 11/12/11 and the card became "used"

Extends from 11/11/11 to 12/11/11.

Normally, i have recruited account B with my main account A. I paid for B to upgrade WOW+TBC and paid one month, so that my main account A got one month free as well.

According to this topic, i recruit B with account A and account B already has an existing account "which can be paid and subscribed monthly." So, there comes a second account under the status of "trial." Now if i pay of the main account B, i will automaticly earn 1 month free with my account A as well, even though i did not update the trial account to classic?

Let's tell that happens, which i believe so far, after seeing the prices of RAF gametime sellers.

Let's go a bit deeper. What if i recruit account B with another account (Accunt C) after recruiting it with account A already and make 1 main account and 2 trial accounts on account B, just because being recruited 2 times?

Now you have 2 accounts, A and C, which recruited account B. Account B has two trial accounts and a main account "which could be supscribed and paid." According to this bug, exploit, RAF gametime seller moneymaker -whatever- if i pay for the main account of account B, it should be giving one free month to recruiter. SO WHICH ONE? BOTH?

I mean, I have an existing wow account which i used to recruit myself.

Normally, i need to pay for one month this wow account to activate the RAF gametime for my recruiter account and still did not. So what if this account is recruited by someone else as well? When i pay for one month subscription, do the other recruiter also earn free RAF gametime? Or is this exploit only valid for "non-recruited" accounts?

Silly working as intended , as stated above

Can you explain how this is working? I tried recently. Recruiting from 1Bnetaccount which contained WOW+expansions, which sent a RAF to Bnetaccount2 which already had WOW+expansions, so also got the trial aka starter edition.

I then added gametime on Bnetaccount2:On the main account / not the starter edition one, who was recruited. As you stated this should have given me 1 free month on Bnetaccount1s' wowaccount, But that did not happen.
A walkthrough here? Because I did not get any free month.

Here this should help you:

How can I earn the free 30-day credit?
For each friend or family member you refer who upgrades to a retail version of World of Warcraft and purchases 30 days of game time via subscription or game card, you will receive a credit for 30 days of free game play.

When will I earn this 30-day credit?
Your account will receive 30 days of free game play after an upgraded recruit's payment finalizes for their purchased game time.
Note: In cases where a recruit sets up a subscription plan, their payment will not initiate until after any game time they currently have expires. This includes the free 30 days of game time that comes with the retail version of World of Warcraft.

Can I earn multiple 30-day credits with the Recruit-A-Friend promotion?
Yes! These rewards will be given to you for each account you refer that meets the criteria listed above.

Can I use the free 30-day credit on a different account or at a different time?
No. The 30 days of free play game play are immediately applied to your account once your recruit enters his or her first billing cycle; this credit may not be transferred.

using stolen credit cards or charging back!

I don't see how this method would work, have any proof?

[Johnnydk]

This is simple to understand, and it should work. I will explain it for those who did not understand.

Okay, so by making this annual commitment thing you actually subscribe for 1 year without being able to cancel the subscription( so you need a credit card to subscribe).

Blizzard will only charge you if you run out of gametime, so practically by adding game time via RaF you actually don't let Blizzard charge your card as you have game time, and after the year is over, you can cancel the subscription. As simple as that, you stay subscribed but your CC is not charged as your account is not frozen.

I hope this explains it.

Confirmed working but iits a bit sketchy with a LOT of room for error.... GL tho OP.
I do expect your friends account banned within the month for doing this so many times

on that note... +5rep. Not worthy of +7, but you DID find a new working exploit so +5 is appropriate.

Ohhhhh that's why I wasn't getting charged when my sister-in-law recruited my account awhile ago. I was wondering why blizzard wasn't pulling money from my credit card but it was saying I paid for the month. Found it odd but didn't want to complain lol
