5 Full Accounts - How?

[Angwe]

Hi All,

I have a bit of a problem setting up 5 accounts

I currently have 4 full accounts, but try as I might I can't upgrade the fifth to full status, btw the accounts are all RaF'd. A 203 error occurs.
I have contacted Blizzard by e-mail, webform and telephone but I am unable to talk or get a response.
Oh and I only have 3 days left on the trial account.

My Questions;

Are there any workarounds that I could use to get my fifth full account, paying by credit card?
Would buying a boxed WOW and using a game key work?

p.s. Three cheers for Tim and the excellent pwnboxer software and JTV broadcasts, although living in England doesn't give me many opportunities to watch the live BC's.

Just go buy a boxed version and you dont have to wait the day or 2 for them to lift all the restrictions.

try clearing your cookies and if you can try changing your ip, if its not a static ip address.

I got the same error. What i did was I had to go on my other computer and connect directly to my modem. Im sure it has something to do with using a different IP and cookies and temp internet files.

Or you could try it on a friends computer.

When you try to make/upgrade a certain number of accounts within a certain timeframe from the same IP a flood filter kicks in and disables you to make/upgrade an account for a bit. This applies to the same concept that you can only make 1 post every 30 seconds on these forums.

The 203 error is Blizzard's deniable method to stop gold farmers from automating a ton of new accounts.

Just try to make the 5th or upgrade the 5th from a new IP address with no cookie or session information.

Thanks for the info.

All sorted now, bought a battle chest (£14.99) and used the keys to upgrade
