Hi All,
Can anyone please advise if its possible to perform a character transfer between 2 accounts that already has 3 full character slots each.
I'd like to move a mining toon over to my second account so I can orca boost with the other character.

Petition is your friend.. ask a GM if they would be able to perform that transaction and save you some bucks.

I may be a noob here but why would they do something for free when they're charging for it?
And no if there are no free slots then you can't transfer a cahracter.

Whats stopping you from trying? If it isn't possible, the game management would've given you a error message. Even if something went fubar, it can always be undone by petition.

Make a temporary 3rd account. That will cost you off course.

As far as I know this is not possible as the character being moved needs to have an empty slot to move into. I will double check this when I get some time but you should feel free to submit a petition under 'Billing' if you require more information.

Edited by: Smodab Ongalot on 04/05/2011 14:52:39 I will tell you that a long time ago I had 2 accounts with 3 toons each. I wanted to swap 2 toons between accounts for a similar reason as you. IE, I had toon 1 on account A and toon 2 on account B, and I wanted toon 1 to be on account B and toon 2 to be on account A.
The CCP person was nice enough to not only do that for me, but reduce the cost to the price of 1 transfer.
I did this through petition, so as others stated, use a petition.
edit. thinking back a little further, it may have been the case that account B from above only had 2 toons. But I can't remember for sure. I am sure about them reducing the cost for me.

Hello again,
I did check with our Billing GM;s and it is simply not possible to transfer characters between accounts that have all three slots filled. An account receiving a character must have a spare slot for the transfer to take place.
I know this is not the news you wanted to hear but it is not even a question of cost but rather something which we cannot technically do for you.

you can do it 
the GMs have the ability to restore biomassed characters, so they could temporarily biomass a character from each account to facilitate the transfer.

GMs did this for me once before. When you get a biomassed character back all you have are skills. you literally get nothing else back. no ships, no isk, nothing. They said none of it can be recovered.
So, OP, just make a third account. Pay for it with plex transfer character over to that account. ----

I recently downgraded from 3 accounts to 2, and I was sure to condense my six characters into the two accounts so I would have proper support in whatever instance of gameplay I was doing.
However, that said, in this instance how much is this operation going to cost you? My math tells me 60 US dollars, plus a plex...That is an exensive operation.
Three accounts: Account A, B, and C (new account). Two characters: Caracters A, B
1) Create new account (C) - 1 plex 2) Transfer character A to account C - 20 bucks 3) Transfer character B from account B to account A - 20 bucks 4) Transfer character A from account C to acount B - 20 bucks
I dont consider myself poor, or cheap, however that is a pretty penny for what you are actually getting out of it.

All posters and CCP Nav,
Thanks anyways.
I'm guessing the account admin GMs just have a script they run. Its a pity they couldn't look into facilitating this kind of action as it looks like I am not the first person who has done this.
Cheers

If you had a third account where they could do the temp tranfers between, CCP might be able to do it, I'd guess.
The problem is that likely each account is hard coded with 3 slots. They likely have literally nowhere to put the 4th character even temporarily on the account.
When you unbiomass a character, you doing it into one of your 3 slots.

If CCP where cool about it they would set up the temp account D for him.. move a Char from acc A to acc D, then move a char from acc B to acc A and finally move the char temporarily in acc D to acc B. Final charge then would be 2 transfers, not 3 + a 30day activation on acc D for the OP. As I said, if CCP were cool about customer satisfaction and all that fluff..

This - I'm happy to pay for a two way character swap,
I understand if CCP put this in the 2 hard basket but it would be neat to have this capability.
