Even if it's not the same last name, you can just say just got married / civil union. :D

I know you were trying to be funny, but I have a husband/wife team in my guild that has been trying to transfer a character between accounts for half a year now. Same last name, same credit card/name in billing. Just different first names. They've even sent in a copy of marriage certificate.

No dice on transfer...

Technically you are not supposed to transfer between even couples, though the line is a bit unclear if you say the secondary account is your minor child. That being said I had no problems with my transfers between the account I set up for my wife (but she never used) and my account. Different first names, same last names, same address.

I have transferred multiple characters amount those two accounts without any problems. Who knows maybe they spot check these from time to time and that is a reason for the difference. The main point is that as long as your addresses are the same and the last names are the same, you shouldn't run into any probems at all. If anything you could claim that the second account you purchased for your minor child and moving his character off from your account to his own account (legally per the EULA you can share your account with a minor offspring).

You must be the subscriber on both accounts simply means the same as the second that your last name has to be the same...

Billing info is not required to be identical. I pay for 3 of my accounts with my bank card and the 4th bills to my paypal, I moved a character from a bank card billed account to my paypal billed account with no problems.

had two accounts on my name, payed with different bank cards. DIDN'T let me move a char, until I changed paying info one one of them!

Ah but see the thing is i am the subsciber now on both accounts. The only difference between the two now is the original name on the account (my brother's name). But since we are both of the same last name i thought i'd risk it an see if i could get the transfer approved.



Much to my chagrin, i realized the toon i'm trying to move is the guild leader of my shaman trio's guild >< so i'll have to wait till i get home tonight to see if i can finalize the process. :cursing:

Can't you change first name? I don't know I never tried, can you?

Nope, i've tried that before.

That's odd. I transferred between two of my own accounts with 2 diff. first names (one was a shortened nickname version of my full name, 2nd was my full name) and it went through no hitches. I dunno if it just reads the first few letters or if its a full name match but I've never had to have same first name, only last name.

Well i managed to get the character transfered :)



but then i get an email today saying once you open a wow box and break the seal on the CDKey, that copy of wow cannot be gifted etc. etc. etc. But you know, if i'm the one paying the sub and blizz decides to ban me, Customer service will get an earfull since i bought the damn copy myself.

Yeah if they ban a single box player they may just get another copy of the game. They ban one of us two-boxers they are going to lose out on anywhere from $30-$75 a month.
