Faction changing characters using points on the Warmane site.

Hello, I am interested in faction changing one of my characters from Horde to Alliance on Deathwing. I have a few questions:

1. This character has several ICC BoEs, if I buy the transfer with 10 points on the site, will they be transferred along as well?

2. The character has over 20 000 gold, will that also be transferred or is there some sort of limit on gold transfers from Horde to Alliance faction? Is there also a gold limit for a character? What is it, if so?

3. There are several items and souvenirs in the character's bank from achievement and exploration of the game, will those also be transferred properly or is there again a limit?

4. The account on which the character was made has donated before and is currently at Premium status. Does this have any effect on the faction changing (through points) of the character?

Thank you very much for your answers in advance.

EDIT: It'd be great if responses could link a source, unless they're staff obviously.

1: Everything will be transferred, and any faction specific items will be changed to their relative faction upon changing.

2: No there is no faction gold limit, since unlimited amounts of gold can be transferred between factions without having to faction change anyway. I cannot however remember gold cap in WOTLK.

3: Yes, everything but faction specific quest items will be with you. Your mailbox however will not, make sure you empty your mailbox before doing your transfer.

4: No, there is no way of losing your premium status, that is permanently on your account :)


EDIT: Source - I've faction transferred over 30 times on warmane throughout my 4 years here, on every expansion.

I had no idea about the mailbox, great tip. Thank you so much for your clear and concise reply!

Hi guys I have a question too, i'd really appreciate if you can help me.
Is it possible to transfer a character twice? I mean, changing it from horde to ally, but then transfer the SAME character back to horde?
I know faction change is not refundable, but it also says it's "irreversible". My point is to know if it's possible to change twice; no matter if I have to pay again (coins or points).

Yes, you can faction change the same character multiple times.

I want to know if items that you store in the bank will be kept upon a faction change.
Also do you get to choose race on faction change or it's chosen automatically?

bank items stay, your inventory doesn't get touched
you get to choose available races when you faction swap (you obviously can't make a tauren rogue or a human shaman or any similar)

thanks dude :)
