Characters deleted with paid gears on it

Hi,

I have already sent an email and it has been suggested to bring this here.

I have been paid for inheritance gears a few years ago while playing on this server. I stopped playing Wow fro a while and wanted to come back on Warmane. Apparently the server I was playing on has been deleted and my characters/ stuff with it. I feel a bit robbed as it says that being a premium account will avoid deletion of inactive accounts. Ok my account has not been deleted but if you delete the characters on it, it is quite similar. Then I had the nice
"No, sorry. You simply missed the timeframe for transfers etc." Was all the answer I got, but since I did not receive any email to do so that's quite obvious I would miss it.

Is there any way I can have my stuff back ( should not be that hard since everything I bought is still in my account history) I guess it's not possible for my characters but I would not understand why it is impossible to get the gears...

Have a good day.

If the server you played on was deleted you can't do anything about it. When You donate You get coins as an "thank you" gift - thus you can buy items with it. But if anything happens to the server you play on, they won't refund you.

1st of all was your characters on a cataclysm realm? because that realm / server dosen't even exist anymore.
2nd What is "inheritance" gears and how did you get paid for it.
3rd if your characters was on a realm that's still alive they would still be there.
4th Premium account still gives you several benefits, such as skipping queue for the "Icecrown" realm.
