Lost access to my original account

Hello - was wondering if anyone could help me here. I had originally played since vanilla launch through about half of WOTLK. I quit the game and took a long hiatus until coming back to play classic. I had a lvl 70 rogue and 80 paladin but they were linked to my college email address. I no longer have access to that email.

Is there anyway to prove my account ownership and regain access to those characters? Any help is appreciated.

Open a live chat and talk to billing and be able to provide some id they can probabyl help u out.

You can contact Blizzard via ticket to have them assist you with recovering your accounts.

Click the “I don’t know my Blizzard account email” link on that page instead. You will then need to provide ID to prove your identity as the owner of the accounts.

This shouldn’t be of any real consequence. If your account information matches the ID Darth mentioned above (no fake names, etc), they should be able to help you out.

Thanks. Yeah I figured there was a way. When I started playing again I created a new account with a different email since I no longer had access to my college email.

As long as you can verify that you are the registered user on the account our Support staff should be able to update the account information or even add that WoW license to your current Battle.net account.

Good luck, Sarrevok, and welcome back!

I’d apologize for rezzing an old post, but:

Something went wrong on our end

An error has occurred. This may be a temporary error, so please try again later.
Error code: 38132a2d-7887-4034-90a4-718cc22960d7

Perhaps a fresh forum post, explaining what it was you were trying to do when you got the error?

The code I see looks like a crash code, not sure, and no one has the ability to check it now I don’t believe.
