I recently bought the 1 month subscription for wow, the card went through and I could play past level 20 without any issues, however when I tried joining a guild it said that my account was starter addition, and when I tried making a death knight it said it was still starter edition. is this a normal thing?
Yeah, you’ll find the limitations will drop off soon, usually within 74 hours.

From the support document discussing this.
When you add game time to an inactive or newly created World of Warcraft account, Starter Account Restrictions will apply until the order is Complete . This may take up to 24 hours depending on payment method used. You can see the status of your order in the Transaction History.
If 24 hours have passed, the order shows as Complete , and you still have the above restrictions, reset your password. This will refresh your account’s status with our servers and remove the restrictions.
Customer Support cannot remove starter restrictions.
