<p>If you're having this issue, PLEASE complain via Live Chat, make a Service Ticket, Report this to become a sticky... ANYTHING that makes SOE start fixing the issue, instead of ignoring it.</p><p>I guess SOE wasn't going to make a post about it, since it's been two weeks of not being able to gift, or buy transfer tokens, for all of us All Access members. But I feel it needs to be addressed. I'm quite sure half of the "unable to buy tokens" posts are related to this issue. After waiting to talk to someone in Live Chat last night, I got this response. I was put on death hold twice during this. 10 minutes after I was asked to wait a moment, I got this response.</p><p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong><span style="font-size: large; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; ">[06:08:29 PM] TSR Sean F.: Unfortunately it looks like EverQuest II players who have an all access pass are currently unable to gift or purchase character transfer tokens due to a bug we are currently working on fixing. What I can offer as an alternate option is to purchase either a station cash card unused for the amount of the token 2500 or 2 game cards 14.99 each (the extra 5 dollars will be applied towards game time). *If you choose to do so please do NOT consume the card to the account as we will need it to trigger the account or server transfer. Unfortunately we am unable to remove station cash from the account wallet so this is the only other option besides waiting until the account hits 30 days.</span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; ">[06:09:11 PM] TSR Sean F.: we are unable*</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; ">[06:09:29 PM] MYUSERNAME soe: Wait... what do you mean hits 30 days? My accounts much older than 30 days.</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; ">[06:09:43 PM] TSR Sean F.: Sorry, disregard that part. The account time is fine.</span></span></strong></span></p><p>Of course then I asked...</p><p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><span style="font-size: small;">[06:10:59 PM] MYUSERNAME soe: How long is this bug going to affect my account? </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><span style="font-size: medium;">[06:11:54 PM] TSR Sean F.: Unfortunately we are currently not sure as we are still working on fixing the issue, however we are hoping for it not to be too much longer.</span></span><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; ">[06:13:11 PM] MYUSERNAME soe: In all fairness, I waited over an hour to talk to someone about this, went almost a day without a response originally and bought a chunk of station cash to prep for transfers that I can't do now... can I get an estimate here as to fixing this? </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; ">[06:14:13 PM] TSR Sean F.: I really wish I had one, however we have no idea at this time as this issue has been effecting all of the all access accounts for about 2 weeks now.</span></span></span></p><p>So you kind of have a solution there. You can do your transfer outside of the game.</p><p>But as for gifters, like me. We're still kind of screwed.</p><p>I wasn't upset about it until I bought a pretty hefty chunk of SC and found that SOE hasn't addressed the issue; or even made a sticky related to it. When you combine it with all the threads that had a copy/pasted response about 30 day account time, instead of asking if someone was an all-access member, that's a slap in the face.</p><p>I was unable to gift any marketplace items. Which really kills my guild's Secret Santa program.</p><p><strong><span style="font-size: small;">I love this game. I've always had helpful SOE support. I've never had any problems with Customer Service, until now. I hope SOE sees that not addressing the issue, does not make the issue go away.</span></strong></p>

<p>I really wish I'd read this post a couple of days ago.  I wanted to transfer a toon to a second, free, account to PL toons on my main account.  I have All Access.  Bought my station cash on the triple-cash day to be all prepped. Spent all the SC needed on the 'free' account to buy DoV, AoD, the proper race unlock, etc.</p><p>And then was told that sorry, you have to spend $25 more to transfer, while accounts that actually spend -less per month- with SOE are able to use their $8.33 or $12.50 (from triple or double SC) to get an account-to-account transfer.</p><p>It is unacceptable for a company to tell a paying subscriber that "Sorry, because of a problem on our end, we're going to force you to pay more" in order to accomplish a task that anyone else can do.  I know it's the Holidays.  I know that All Access Pass subs are very much a minority.  But then charging them more for something that others get for cheaper because of a problem on the provider end - that's not right.</p>

<p>I as well knowing that I would be moving several toons bought alot of SC during the sale. So what nowI have to eat that....or hope that it gets resolved at some point in the future?</p><p>I have also heard that those with all access dont get the 500 SC a month as well.</p>

<p>I too wish to do a character transfer, and cannot becauseof this bug with my all access sub. Also, not getting my 500 SC a month is just not right. They better make sure that they retroactive what is owed when they do figure out how to fix this bug.</p><p>I have been a SOE customer since I started EQ1 in '99. Every month they get my cash for my two accounts. Add that up, it's a lot of money I have spent here, not to mention the extras in game expansions and SC.</p><p>We deserve to have this issue addressed more openly and respectfully. Not to mention more promptly, it is rather unacceptable and disrespectful the way it has been currently handled.</p>

<p>I have called multiple times about this issue.  They now do not even offer the "pay more and we'll do it" option.  It needs to be fixed.  For me not being able to transfer toons is awful.  It is a known issue that has not been addressed in weeks. </p><p> I have noticed that, as Tigress did about post merge slot counts, if you post everywhere, SJ will respond to you.  I would hate to go that route.</p>

<p>Here's the response I got today via email:</p><p>"Greetings Vagranticide,Thank you for contacting Sony Online Entertainment. I apologize for the inconvenience. Unfortunately, the All Access Subscription is not currently eligible for Character Transfers. We are aware of the issue and are working diligently to find a solution. We also do not currently have a work around for this issue. As it stands, gold recurring subscriptions of at least 31 days are the only accounts eligible for Character Transfer in EverQuest II. If you have any more questions or concerns, please let me know."</p><p>My account has gold much longer than 31 days and was only recently changed to All-Access.  *sigh*</p>

They can do them manually. By hand. Using the billing information stored in the account.</p><p>Just for some reason they don't want to I guess? That's how they did it before.. My last transfer was done over the phone using the credit card I had on the account.</p>

<p>All Access accounts need transfer tokens.  Fix Bug.  Tigress has shown us that the only way to get something done in EQ2 is to be the sqeekiest wheel.  Post where the issue is even remotely related.  PM SJ as well seems to help.</p>

Or the transfer ability. If they're worried about abuse, make it so the silver accounts and stuff have to pay by credit card that matches the account registration info.</p><p>There is no reason to not permit it. They want to throw MORE money at sony, they should let us.</p>

<p>Any news on this? It would be nice to have an 'official' reply or post saying this bug is being worked on. Or maybe us SoE All Access people just aren't worth their time... <img src="/eq2/images/smilies/9d71f0541cff0a302a0309c5079e8dee.gif" border="0" /></p>

<p>My recent reply via email was:</p><p>"We apologize for the confusion with this situation; it isn't a matter of security, but simply that we have an error in our systems we are working to resolve. Although All-Access customers should be bale to purchase character transfer tokens ,as well as gift, once the requirements are met, our systems are not allowing them to do so. As stated, we are working to resolve the problem and you should be able to purchase a character transfer token, as well as gift, once the problem is solved. We ask for your patience during this process."</p><p>I can't believe the GM's have not responded to any posts on any of the support forums.  This is crazy. </p>

<p>I tried to petition a few days ago out of game as was suggested above... still nothing.</p><p>Called the phone number above and got in pretty quick.  They reopened a new ticket that was nothing to do with the problem i called in.  The CS was honestly very nice and very gentle about saying there was nothing that can be done until this is fixed and it is priority #1! Ok 48 hrs later....  4 days since my original petition (nothing still).  So apparently not only are we limited from the SC store thinking we are free players, but also the online support sees us as ftp so no online support for you. <em>NO SOUP FOR YOU!</em></p><p><strong>On the bright side you can now purchase a skunk lookin squirrel mount, a bunch of new rusty cubes for decorating and some new buff/debuffs to put on your dungeon maker stuff....</strong></p><p>I get it... different departments and processes etc.  When they merged the game into freeport it screwed everything up which is why we couldn't log into the game for so long after the feature pack went "live" which was the worst eq2 xpac launch to date.</p><p>Just what is going on? Still no official announcements? Or can someone post some link?  Even if its smothered with bacon greasy SJ goodness! <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>If i didn't love this game i would have already moved on, so many half promises, and now so much for the vets and fans...</p>

<p>Just a small update (if you want to call it that)... </p><p>I called CS this morning just to see if there was any progression as far as the Character Transfer Tokens and he said they should have it fixed by mid-January.  Whether or not that happens is a different story, so we'll see.  I also informed him that some of us have been concerned about the lack of responses from GM's on the forums and he said he will mention it to "them" but he knows they are backlogged from the holidays. </p><p>Sometimes follow up helps speed things along, sometimes it doesn't.  I had to try though.  <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>

<p>As of late this afternoon, CS was able to get me a transfer token in the marketplace.  I am an All Access subscriber and I was told they got their tools back just prior to my call. </p>

<p>GM's do not support the forums.  This is technical support, not in-game support.</p><p>GM's are not allowed to post here outside of management.</p><p>I am not a GM <img src="/smilies/8a80c6485cd926be453217d59a84a888.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p>For Character Transfer requests, contact us directly, for in-game support contact a GM via a petition.  I cannot help speed up the response time from the GM's as they are very busy and have a large workload.  I'll do what I can to spur some action but no promises.  If you have outstanding tickets that seem abandoned, post your incident number and I'll do what I can.</p>
