question about char transfers

[zenga]

So I'll finally give in and use a creditcard online, on the verge of server transferring a bunch of toons. Have 2 questions some of you might be able to answer:

1) if I recall correct from reading this somewhere here, there was a limit on how many toons you can transfer at once, correct? I'm not sure if this was due to credit card protection, or just a build in 'feature'? If this is correct, anyone knows how many you can transfer at once? And what is the wait time before you can transfer the next batch? (i'm aware about the waiting to transfer a single toon again, but not talking about that).

2) the name on my credit card is slightly different from my bnet account (it's comparable though), is this a problem? Reason for this was when I started playing I made 5 bnet accounts (jon doe, john doe, johnn doe, etc), as I was not sure if it was even allowed to have multiple. Merged them soon after, but to the wrong spelled one, i.e. name is john doe but bnet is jonny doe).

cheers

Some people claim it's Blizzard and others claim it was their credit card company. I've never had an issue
with doing multiple transactions in a row except when creating multiple trials at once but, that had nothing
to do with credit cards at the time and it was IP based.

Shouldn't matter.

Ah cheers for the info. Called them if they could cut me a deal, and that dick didn't want to. Called them again, with a bit more drama, to no avail. Finally called them a 3rd time totally dramatic, and they agreed to meet me half way: II pay the server transfer (22 toons :/) and they get me free account transfers.

I don't think it matters what the name on the battle.net is vs credit card.

IE: what if your battle.net says John Doe and you use your Wife's card -- Jane Doe?

I think the issue is, when you separated characters from the old way (prior to battle.net). You needed the same last name on the new account the character was being transferred to (I assume this still applies if you transfer a character to a new battle.net account).

I prob just made this more confusing after re-reading what I just wrote, lol.

Someone else has done this before, was posted as well. totally worth it for that many toons and should be a discount option for when xferring multiple toons by default imo!!

Apart from that, I did the exact same thing as you with my multiple wow accounts, didn't name them the same, had slight variations. And I have also used a different named credit card (used my brothers and payed him back) when mine got stolen overseas and when I got back my accounts had all elapsed (I had put a stop on my card) and it was going to be 2 weeks until I had access to my own money.

To be fair I just robbed an old lady on the street and was gonna use the card I found in her purse.
