Sent 5k gold to an alt

Probably because their main was not near a bank at the time.

Just an FYI, the OP posted on the CS forums, and blue tracked it down. He sent 5g not 5k gold.

/facepalm

:laughing:

Thank you, I was about to offer to send him 5k because I felt bad lol.

We have a mobile Warbank access thngy.

Not exactly WB, they sent 5 gold less than they thought they had.

But the total was in the tens of thousands.

It sounds like it went through though as Orlyia didn’t mention anything being lost.

It’s actually not possible for them not to reply if you properly submitted a ticket. That said, in the many years and all the threads where a player has accused Blizz of losing their gold in the mail, I’ve never ever seen a blue confirm it. In fact, it’s always (100% of the time) been player mistake or error. Just like in this OP’s case.

Feel free to post your ticket number that wasn’t replied to in the CS forum and a Blue will almost certainly look at it for you.

If you’re not near a bank, wtf do you need 5k gold on an alt for?

Anything you’d spend 5k gold on, is probably in a town, IE, near a bank as every town has one.

Use the Warband bank to move money not mail.

The alt who needs the gold is in town or they have an AH mount. The main with the gold is not in a city, but they’re near a mailbox out in the boonies.

And what does this main in the boonies who has <5k gold actually need? lol.

I still don’t really see a scenario where you can’t do the warbank thing. Oh, and you can summon a warbank too.

The main doesn’t need anything. The alt needs something and doesn’t have enough gold. The OP says they “sent gold to an alt”

did you get your gold back yet?

They never lost any gold. They sent 5g to the alt instead of the 5k gold they thought they sent. The gold is still right there on the main char.

Blue confirmed the Main did have a lower balance by 5 gold, but had not sent 5k.

Hey Paladina,

Yes, can you please send me 5k gold to my toon. Its name is Reopening-Moon Guard.

I will highly appreciate it as I am kinda broke right now.

Ty!

In the future, use your warband bank instead.

yes, ok

it would make more sense if nothing was received.

5k gold morphing to 5gold sounds a little weird. recheck other toon maybe you forgot the zeros? idk.

as for the red warning text if its “internal database error” or something like that
 thats fine. i get that message all the time but everything gets in anyways.

it was not that usual “internal database error”.

It was something like “content was irretrieavable”

The irony of some in here pretending that blizzard never loses any anything when we know factually that they just lost a whole bunch of crap of a lot of different players lol. Don’t sit here telling me how they never lose anything when we know absolutely that they’ve just lost a bunch of people’s stuff
