I called billing and the guy I talked to said there is nothing he can do about it (after putting me on hold after I insisted) - he said it's for my own security blah blah - so I repeated the point that while I understand that newly merged battle net accounts shouldn't transfer out - my case is different as its a fresh new set of accounts - he said he'll email developers... I did mention someone else said they got that limit lifted but that didn't help.

So looks like I'm blocked until end of december :-( Unless I guess I try again until I get the right person on the phone ? (with patch 3.3 just out the lines are going to be a mess)
