They should simply be paused while they work on the issue and should resume when the system is turned back on. I’ll see what additional information I can get through and update this thread.

Thank you. I just logged in and no longer see the “transfer in progress” next to my toon, but they’re on the old realm.

Add me to those whose transfer is “Complete”, but still on the original server. I’ve submitted a ticket using the Purchase Failure link above.

Thank you for the reply. I assume the reason we cant see transfer in progress is cause its on hold my dudes. Why we are still on old servers.

I also paid for a transfer almost 12 hours ago. Character hasn’t been transferred and the message stating it was in process is now gone.

Hey folks,
I received a bit of clarification so I wanted to pass it along. It looks like any character transfer that was already initiated is still processing. It is a bit slow at the moment, but it continues to process.
No new transfers are currently possible and we plan to have them back on later today.

Thanks for the update. I’m still having this issue, but the little gear has disappeared which had me worried. Glad to know it’s just servers backed up. Shout out to the technical team for working on this.

Had someone buy a server transfer after me and had theirs get completed yet here I am 10 hours later with nothing.
I’m also dealing with this for some reason character transfer did not go through on burning crusade just classic even though I already had him set to clone on burning crusade.

Hey all just wanted to submit info, Faerlina Alliance transfer to Earthfury, submitted at 9:26AM EST. Hit the 12 hour mark just a bit ago and still a bit worried.

The cog wheel next to my name went away, is that because of the pause?
I’m not quite to the 12 hour mark yet, but getting there.
coming up on 12 hours this is ridiculous
It would be nice to have an ETA.
I want to play the game, so I’m logging in every 30 minutes to see if I can, if I was told that this issue wont be resolved until after the server reset tomorrow, then I could go do something else.
Just passed the 12 hour mark now.
It is extremely rare for Blizz to give an ETA when there are issues like this as a lot of people forget what the word “Estimated” means. They tend to equate it with “Exactly”.
If there was any sort of estimate at all, like sometime tomorrow etc. then Blizz would give it.

did they just take down server transfers? i was able to transfer earlier…
Eight hours ago per the link earlier in this thread.
I just hit 24 hours of my character being stuck in limbo. Hopefully the server resets fixes this, already have lost an entire day of pre-patch.
I cant play any of my characters without paying 15$ for each of them on BC or classic.
The $15 is only if you want to keep your Classic character in classic AND move a copy of them on to Burning Crusade.
Otherwise, when you first log into them, you get the FREE option to either activate them in Classic or activate them in BC.
