Just for clarification, the two issues do appear to be unrelated. This is a separate bug, but to be clear, it did start around the same time. You may not have noticed it due to the volume of reports we were seeing because of the missing gold from AH sales.
For folks trying to transfer we were seeing two issues. The first, folks were getting a message that they have mail, which was preventing them from transferring. That should be resolved now as far as I am aware (not to be confused with mail from NPC’s that may be pending after completing certain quests).
The second, players are getting a notice that they have an active auction. That is what is currently being worked on.
It absolutely is not.
We don’t have an ETA but I will provide an update as soon as I have one to share.
