Problems creating trial accounts?

[Frojax]

Hello all,

I'm stepping up from 2 to 5 boxing tonight and am just in the process of creating my three new accounts. Having done two of them and raf'd them up, when trying to create the third, I get an (ERROR 203). Has anyone run into this problem before? It suggest clearing my cache, which has done nothing, then phoning support, which I can't do until tomorrow. Being the impatient little multiboxer that I am, I'd like to get them running tonight. Anyone know of a fix?

Edit: Just noticed that support isn't available on Saturday or Sunday either, going to be a long weekend without a fix

go to a friends house and do it. problem happens when you try to make too many accounts at once from the same IP address. it prevents automated account creation, one of the ways to prevent spam and stuff.

Ahhh, I see, thankyou, I'll try rebooting my router for a new IP, with luck that will work, otherwise my sister gets a visit in the morning

good luck!

That worked a treat, got all of my accounts created and upgrade, apart from the last one, which is created, but won't let me upgrade and tells me to call billing, probably a failsafe as I've used the same payment method for each account.

Thanks again

The 203 is pain. I got it for the 5th account, even billing couldn't help, had to buy a box from the local wallymart ...

[Frojax]

You're right, Spannah. Billing are clueless, they didn't even know why my card had been stopped from allowing payments to my account last month and
it was them that blocked it. I've just picked upa battlechest from the local Game. Now the fun of writing my macroes for 5 chars begins.
Ah well, at least I have the DVD version now, will make future installs a little easier

no longer helping here

Yeah I got that error on my fifth account as well. Since I have a router downstairs for the laptops we have down here, and a router upstairs for the upstairs desktops, I have two networks running. All I did was go upstairs to the other network and registered, worked just fine .

The blizzard moderators on the forums don't know what the error is either. Hopefully one of their customers can inform them :P.
