Preferred status unify appearance?

[Vorn369]

Hi, according to my friend who is also a preferred, when he makes a new character, the character will get the unify appearance feature. However for me, whenever I get a new character, it is not avaliable and I've never gotten this feature. May someone please help me with this, as I spent credits to buy a dye, thinking I would be able to unify the appearance, but it does not work.

This is an unlock that would need to be purchased either from the GTN or the cartel market.  There are two versions either one that just unlocks it for the character and one that unlocks it for your whole account.

Your friend probably purchased the account unlock so it alllies to any character he creates.  So you would need to ourchapu this as well for either your character account.

Correct the feature is free and available for subscribers but unless you purchase the unlock when you are no longer subscribed the feature would be lost.

But he says he gets it in a pack in his mail whenever he starts a new character... its in a mail called "Friends of SWTOR Preffered friends bundle" and it contains an inventory module unlock, crew skill slot unlock customisation control: display titles and customization control: unify colours". I've never gotten such a thing even though I am preferred.
