Unable to transfer complaint thread

This post is to bring to light the many out there truly perturbed by not being able to transfer their character now that the console version has been released. It truly does surprise me that most people are just ok with not having the ability still available to transfer over. If anyone is like me (busy life not always around computers i.e. deployed location and such) they may not have been able to see the email that gave out a 30 day dead line. As for myself I went and bought the game outright again fully expecting to transfer my character over. While I love this game I certainly don't want to reinvest 19 days and 16 hours of play time to get back to where I was. The set gear along with all of the trait research and leveling of every crafting there is is painful to think about redoing. The end goal of this post is to hopefully bring about another chance if not a permanent ability to transfer your characters. In case you're wondering yes I did email their support and I received a very curt and generic reply that all in all said tough sh** we won't give you another chance.

    I'm not perturbed at all(good word).

    I didn't have the money when the chance came (yes I was that poor) and now that I do it's too late. My fault not theirs. It's pretty simple.

    I think there have been a few "complaint" threads and Zos has provided an official answer that they will not be offering the character copy again. Although I expect the mighty dollar will persuade them in the future since I have since other games offer character transfers for $20 per character. Not bad revenue.

    With that, I understand that some people may have been remiss in reading emails or missed elderscrollsonline.com/en-gb/news/post/2015/02/12/the-road-ahead---february and mmorpg.com/gamelist.cfm/game/821/view/forums/post/6583472#6583472 that would have provided an indication to look for information on the console transfers.

    Hopefully they offer something for you guys eventually, but again, the official answer provided in the forums a couple weeks ago is that it is not happening now.

    Sorry

    Same boat I just flat out missed it. No way I'm paying full retail and restarting. Why you put a deadline on an automated service that makes you money baffles me. I mean who does that? Even worse people are basically ready to throw money to them so they can copy their character. Yet they say no ....just wow lol.

    I hope they give another chance. I have no problem paying retail, I just want to be able to transfer my account if the time comes.
