Hi hope someone can help with this problem as I cant acssess any of my account or log into the game.
I went to log into wow today. I entered all my information correctly and still I keep getting the error message....
"The information you entered is not valid. Please check the spelling of the account name and password. etc etc redirects me to the website."
I also get the message ...
"Unable to validate game version etc etc...redirects me to website"
The information is 100% correct im sure and I have checked the realm status page and my realm is showing as online. What should I do?... I have tryed the phoneline but as you probably all know its allways congested and not taking any new calls. Im at a loss as what to do as their is no way to get into contact with them. Hope someone can help

Can you not log into the account management page? Is your character naked when you look at him on the armory? If yes, then you were hacked. Either way, you're going to probably want to contact blizzard (I've never had more than a 20min wait on the phone with Blizzard...).

Ive just checked my armoury and certain pieces of my eqiupment are missing on my charectuers. I also cant get into my account So i guess it has happened. Should i try phone support from now on as theres no other way as i see it. Im trying to get into contact with blizz but the european phonlines are a joke.Will I get my stuff back? Guess il just have to sit this on out for a while. On a more serious note Will they hack into my bank details should i cancel my cards...?

Hijacked =/= hacked. You inadvertently gave away your account information, nothing more.

Thankyou for the above. "Helpful" comment. Why even reply? I have never told my account details to anyone ...ever. Its people like you that remind me of why Im thinking off quitting the game anyway. Maybe this has happened for a reason.

Don't get too bent out of shape. He never said you "told" your details to anyone. He said you inadvertently (by accident) gave away your account detail.
Calm down.
Ok point taken. Just the idea that as a sit here someone is methodically taking my charectuers to peices is getting me rather annoyed. Also having to listen to the same automated voice on telephone for upwards of 40 minutes is proving rather irksome. I'd like to get hold of the person who hacked my account and maybe bend him out of shape a little.

Luckily I did'nt have that much gold anyway. But I did have 2 level 80 charectuers in Tier 9 gear.They both had a lot of profession related gear in the bank (around 20 different darkmoon cards ,a few stacks of arctic fur)
So at the very least its gonna be disruptive and set me back a few months. Its pretty dismal that this type of thing happens il have to be more vigilant i guess.
Thing is I play the game straight never bought gold or power levelled anything.
Sucks to be me... etc... etc
