Can not Login with character after Faction Change

Race Changed my Character and could initially log in, but after killing a mob I got instantly kicked out. I get a generic disconnect error at first and after the second attempt I always get “Name is already taken” which didn’t pop up when I named the character.

The only article I found was wait for up to 30 min, disable all addons and reconnect.
Did all that and even after the night passing I can’t log in - all other chars are working fine and creating new ones also works, just my changed main is stuck.

Anyone encountered this problem so far or has a solution?

*edit the character is also not available on forum selection neither as Horde nor Alliance character

i have the same problem with my monk. and cant fix it too.the technical support on the website is so bad that I can’t even create a ticket for it under the pre-defined category, but am always forwarded to pre-defined threads.

I opened a ticket under the account options and the last category “not listed here” - otherwise I couldn’t open one too.
But the average respond time is a bloody joke with 32 days. (Atleast shown in the tooltip)

Have the same issue even tho I have been playing with it this morning after it, literally tried everything to get it work but still can not log in. I opened a ticket under character stuck and I am lowkey hoping that will help. Have been struggling for hours now

Nope, no update here and still waiting on the support.
From viewing other posts it probably will take up to 2-3 weeks in the worst case.
By then my sub will run out and at that point I can just stop there tbh.

Apparently they’re aware of the issue due having multiple report about this, they said it’s under investigation

Can you link the statement about investigation? Didn’t find one in the tickets I’ve seen so far.
