Recently Subscribed, Stuck on Free Trial Status? (can't use the AH)

Hey,

I just Subscribed to WoW on a fresh Battle.net Account but in the game I’m still restricted to “Free Trial Status” and I can’t use the Auction House to buy stuff like bags. The full game has been unlocked and I can progress past level 20 though. I’ve tried relogging to the game, but even after doing this I only get the message “Free Trial accounts cannot perform this action” error at the Auction House.

Weirdly enough, I can now browse the Auction House and the error appears when actually trying to buy stuff. Previously I couldn’t even interact with the NPC’s (browse the AH) while I was in Free Trial mode.

I don’t have BfA or Shadowlands, just the Subscription. Is this the issue?

Hi there Tyrsky!

Your payment is still processing. You’ll be able to level past 20 but some restiections like trading wont be available just yet.

Hi, I am having the same issue. How long does it take for Blizzard to process the subscription payment?
