Faction change + transfer - experiences?

[Fuzzyboy]

So, I'm about to take the plunge, but before I do, I wanted to hear if anyone else had done it (I assume as much) and what experience they've had with it - what to watch out for etc.

For instance, will payment be locked after three charges (i.e. three faction changes)? Can this be countered in any way? Can I risk faction changing and then being unable to transfer? Or transferring and being unable to faction change?

I did 7 at once and had no problems with payment, I believe this is purely based on your credit card company. You can transfer and immediately faction change (this is what I did.)

I considered transferring a horde team that I have at 70 to another faction+server. I was curious about how long I would have to wait or if I can do both the same day.

yes you can and I believe this is answered in their big FAQ.

The reason that I'm asking is that when I've started up from a break - I've been able to activate three accounts, and then had to wait one day to activate the two last. Same with expansions. But I guess that's due to my bank then. Weird stuff.

I just checked the character transfer faq and the restrictions and disclaimers faq. No info there. If you have a link, that would be appreciated :-)

Most likely..... it kind of scares me how much I can do without raising a flag on my credit account. I have done probably $500 worth of movement in a day and every transaction went through without a hitch.

edit: sorry it was a blue response and not a FAQ.

I think that post is about the cooldown (i.e. no transfers for a 3-day period) - I meant the credit card thing. But good info never the less :-)

One thing I did was get a debit card with my PayPal account. I can circumvent the three hits to your card rule this way.

Oh sorry I have no info from Blue on the credit card issue. We are the exception as multiboxers though, most people would transfer one or two characters. So, I'm not sure that Blizzard even realizes there is a problem.
