Hey all, and sorry for the confusion.
We currently have a restriction on new accounts playing Season of Discovery, similar to the purchase of WoW tokens.
Can’t Trade, Mail, or Use the Auction House
This means that if this is your first time adding game time on your WoW account (and if the game time was added recently), you will not be able to trade with other players, use the auction house or in-game mails.
Once this period of 30 days has ended, the restrictions will be lifted automatically. If you’re still seeing restrictions after that however, you will need to log out of your account for at least 12 hours.
Please do note that we’ve also received reports of the restrictions not being lifted automatically after waiting 12h+, and this has been forwarded to our developers.
Hope this clear things up.
