Hello.
I'm having a serious issue with chat , im F2P player and i'm currently lvl 68 but when i try to type in chat im getting an error message that f2p players cant type until level 25
Chat was working 2 hours ago and it suddenly started giving me this message
Any help would be welcome.
Thanks

I have an update for you, and I apologize for the delay of this information.
Characters boosted with Level 60 or 65 Outlander Tokens are not able to use Public Channels (General, PvP, Trade, Say, etc.) on F2P accounts. They're still able to use Group/Party/Guild chat. Upgrading to Preferred loosens these restrictions, and upgrading to Premium Subscriber removes them.

Did you get squelched or someone report anything you said? Does it work on other characters above level 25? Do other chats like whisper, guild, warzone work? Logging out then back in after a few minutes?

Thanks for the quick reply and No i havent really wrote anything but the whispers from that character and im currently playing on my lvl 50 and it works great for that character but not for my other one.

I have seen in the past chat issues with characters created at level 65 not able to chat , this maybe related even though this character is lvl68 now
Any Thoughts ?

Definitely odd, chat restrictions should be lifted as long there is a non-boosted char leveled past 25 on the account, which you definitely meet if you have a Level 50 that you're playing, much less chatting successfully with. I'll look into it and come back to the thread later.

Update : Got the character to level 69 still not beeing able to chat. It displays the same message that i have to be level 25 , curious enough /me works .

I have a suspicion that since the chat level requirement was increased, a character on your account hasn't crossed the level 25 -> 26 threshold, which should enable public chats on your account.
Do you have any lower level characters near level 25 that you could level up to 26 to hopefully enable the chat? Edit: see my latest post.

Can we get an more orderly info on the new Chat Restrictions from BWA?
