I would love to see someone ask a bank to refund WoW gold. Should post it on youtube.

So any possible clues as to how to approach Blizz about this Zenetta? (Or even just open a GM ticket?) All I get are a list of FAQs- NONE of which address my situation. 
I think this is your only option unless you can get a super rare blue response in the forums.
If you mean you tried to open a ticket but couldn’t find where, you have to click through a lot of crap to get to where it lets you actually contact support. I assume they bombard you with those things to try to reduce the number of tickets real humans have to read.

You could also try asking in the customer support forum I suppose:
There is some SERIOUSLY bad advice. If you are suggesting getting the bank to do a chargeback I would strongly suggest against it. Blizzard takes a very dim view on chargebacks for legitimate purposes. They will lock your account until the chargeback is paid back. SERIOUSLY bad idea.
Thanks for the link Zenetta! I submitted a ticket.
Hoping to hear back from Blizzard soon.
have u found out anything im in the same situation ur in i also put in a ticket waiting for response

And yay!
I got a generic response that did not address my problem at all. The GM message proclaimed that I was awarded ONE free day of game time!
I have replied to the GM re-stating my problem- this time with a screenshot attached. Hopefully they will actually READ my ticket this time.

That may well be their way of saying “no” while trying to sugarcoat it with a gift. Who knows.
I have no dog in the fight, but I’d be pretty surprised if they made an exception. It’s possible the change from BoA to BoP was accidental, but…it was probably intentional.
Could try posting in the customer support forum since there’s a decent amount of customer service rep interaction there or on the CS twitter even as well.
If your tokens were on a bank alt you could just move everything else off the character and leave the tokens there and transfer other characters off.
I made the mistake of purchasing them on my main. UGH. But then again, how would I have known about Blizzard’s downsizing realms when I started playing last June?
i got a response from ticket and its very unfortunate…
Reading your help request, I understand that you would like some assistance transferring your WoW Tokens in the free migration as the current realm is closing, and the inconvenience and frustration this has caused. While we understand your request given the circumstances, it is not possible to transfer characters with Tokens thus they should be consumed, otherwise they will be purged and due to certain limitations, Customer Support cannot provide compensation, and thank you for your understanding.
I know that the answer is different from what you may have been hoping for, and I would definitely seek for a workaround in order to help, but there are no exceptions that can be made here, as all situations must adhere to the established guidelines. You can always feedback and provide suggestions for improving our system in the feedback forum. Submissions posted have the benefit of allowing a community discussion around high-impact suggestions, which can occasionally help in prioritizing them.

Wow…just wow… (no pun intended.)
They could have done something simple like put back gold into your character for what the tokens were selling for and then transfer your character where you could re-buy the tokens on the new realm…but of course that would make TOO much sense.

yep i have 9 tokens i have to consume now and diddnt want to
What you just said is exactly why they are doing it… imagine how many people are in that boat. That’s tons of money going away for their bottom line.
