Phone incompatible with Authenticator App

Refusal to upgrade is in itself a security risk. As technology ages, it’s easier to access from outside of the provider.

When it comes to technology that is a fact, honestly. You can do everything on your pc, sure, but what happens when you can’t play WoW anymore? Do you upgrade? Or do you just say “Well that was fun.”

Of course that’s the case? Nobody said anything about that.

Again, if your pc craps out for WoW, are you just going to use facebook? And when someone asks to upgrade it, will you say “well I don’t need it cuz my laptop can do it.”?

Then you must be on a server where they barely exist, are lying, or have some sort of magic filter. They were everywhere.

Telling someone to upgrade technology and use the system as intended is not trolling.

No. The chance of them occuring as a result of a 2fa app is inconsequential. Don’t be daft. Like I said, if you are that concerned about identity theft you wouldn’t have a wow account in the first place. The argument is incredibly misleading and insincere.

Then you are looking at the wrong plan. I just got a new Galaxy and phone service and I’m paying $40. I just locked into a contract for a year to pay off the phone. Just don’t use Cricket. Overpriced Crap Service…

Chance is quantitative, not qualitative. Get your logic straight.

Oh no, you got me. Ho hum. Now your argument is totally valid and not at all intentionally misleading!

I’m not sure what your financial situation is, but you can buy a new, released in the last year or so, cheapo Samsung phone for about $20 to $30. They aren’t that great, but they get the job done.

EDIT
You can get service through Tracfone for about $20.00. No contract. You just pay per month. However, you don’t have unlimited data, phone minutes, or texts, but do you really need unlimited? Doesn’t everyone connect to their wifi when they are home?

Is LFG not cross-server?

I don’t know for sure, but I do not believe so.

No they rules against first amendment rights applying to private property. No one has to provide you a platform. They can remove you for little or even no reason.

You are not correct. Read it again

Check on Amazon they have Key Fob Blizzard Authenticator you can buy…if you can’t upgrade your phone or use any of the other ways…

They need to sell Taco Bell. Delivery. I would tear that up. Buy it with in-game gold? Yes please.

This doesn’t work anymore

I do. It is cross-server.

The only caveat is that all orders go through the same store in Anaheim, so delivery times may vary.

Oooh my cheesy gordita crunches will be here Tuesday! And only costs me $487 including the fuel surcharge.

No! Stop complicating my dreams.

I can’t believe I have to see this in my thread… :face_vomiting:

Wrong they do still work they just don’t make them anymore…the ones for sale on Amazon are ones made before the change…as per this now…" Blizzard is still supporting the ones that exist, they’re just not making any more of them, and you can still switch your account over as long as your authenticator is still working."

That’s what I said when they stopped selling the shredded chicken burrito, making me think on the spot about what to replace it with. (At least my local one stopped selling it.) I used to get one with every order.

I’m getting a cheesy gordita crunch today. It has been decided.

To clarify, people should stop suggesting buying fobs. SMS Protect (or Phone Notifications https://us.battle.net/support/en/article/26824?utm_source=internal-TechForum&utm_medium=posting&utm_campaign=BlizzardCS&utm_content=solution) is required for the Group Finder functionality. I can confirm that personally, and it’s also outlined in Blizzard’s support pages, and in a Blue Post on the Techincal Support forums where they’re guiding people to the SMS page.
