Hopefully they will but something is telling me they won’t.

I’m sorry that happened to you, and thanks for the warning.

I wouldn’t count on it. But if it makes you feel better, 10k is on the low end of what I’ve seen players lose tonight.

So…don’t transfer any badges? Is that borked along with everything else?

Don’t transfer ANYTHING, it seems.

Like, the game’s playable enough that we were able to 8/8M reclear tonight, but it should’ve taken us like an hour and a half tops but we had to 18-man half the bosses due to DC bugs.

But this is infuriating af.

ā€œDue to how some of the data was lost, we’ve reached a point where the result will be an incomplete restoration for players, and we do not have a way to restore the remaining missing items.ā€

Is what I assume Blizz will say.

TBH your not getting it back, they’ll fix the problem, but they dont refund items or currency lost

If they can’t restore it they should AT LEAST give 10-20k in the mail for this incident.

They genuinely need to make refunding any currency lost by this their #1 priority after the game’s stable.

Like, if I had 60k+ Timewarped Badges and lost them all permanently because of this I’d genuinely hit ā€œI will quit this game on the spot and will never log into it ever againā€ levels of mad. That is hours upon hours upon hours’ worth of Timewalking.

I lost 64k to a transfer. It even shows in my transfer logs.

I’m not holding my breath.

Jeesh I am getting piles of TW badges rolling into my account like a slot machine wonder whats going on…

I mean they were fine with screwing people over for their little guild bank blunder. 15+ years of items gone and all we got from Blizz was a piss poor ā€œOopsie daisy, our bad but we can’t get those items back for youā€

I can never unsee these words, and the heart sinking feeling from losing hundreds of thousands worth of gold in mats/items that came with it lol…

I agree with you, they’re definitely not going to refund the badges and are just gonna say, ā€œSorry but you’re SOL…again.ā€

Yup I lost like 30k badges /wink wink

yep I lost 5k yesterday. I guess the moral of the story is never let the intern do the coding.

Is this fixed yet?

I lost a bit over 9k last night. Opened a Blizzard support ticket immediately and the reply I received this morning was exactly what so many of you said it would be, ā€˜So sorry, we can verify you did indeed make the transfer exactly as you described but there’s nothing we can do to restore the lost currency.’ (Edited the quotes as this is paraphrased and not an exact quote of the email.)

It included a list of things I could try that maybe, possibly, if I hope hard enough, MIGHT resolve the issue: Refresh UI and disable / uninstall addons, reset/repair the UI, and open another ticket, this time in-game. The first two did nothing, I have no idea how to reset or repair their UI, and we’ll see what happens with the new ticket.

I just started playing last August and I’ve already put in over 1,200 hours. I’ve really enjoyed playing this game! But this is a level of aggravation I don’t need in my life and I’m certainly not going to actively pay for it. I’m still hopeful this will be properly resolved, but if not, I’ll find something with a better ROI for my time.

That’s terrible on so many levels.

What is wrong with Blizzard.
