  2. Not bad? Really? Usually it’s because some passwords are leaked somewhere :)

    EDITED: Hmm, somehow I don’t get the SMS with activation code to be able to cgange it at all..

  7. Where is the “official” announcement then?
    Don’t want to go through all the hassle of changing PW unless its actually gong to work

  11. Call me a pessimist but perhaps this is a stealth apology for last weekend’s code fails? 300 gold each for those that find out about it…?

    • I doubt it, this is like the 3rd or 4th time EU has done this shit in the last year and I think NA only had it active the very first one (when RU did it as well).

      Edit: then again above comments are saying it works so maybe

        • Yep seems so, how rare. Added my phone number as well but don’t seem to have gotten the 100 gold for that.

      • rly 3 or 4th times? in two or tree years am playing I’ve seen this event only once… don’t post false information’s cause you are butt hurt :)

  18. I will tell you why they are giving 300gold again. Now open google and type “heartbleed bug” , all your misteries are solved. This problem was found out this week.

    I HIGHLY suggest to you all to change your old passwords wherever you can!

    I know SS this is not WoT related but I think you should post it before people get into serious problems.

    • I had same problem some time ago (I try to change password every 30 days, as the notifications show up, just for them to dissapear). I had to write a Support ticket – they asked me of my latest bonus codes used, the payments for gold/ premtanks etc – just to identify me. After identification they can erase your phone number (altough, they asked for the last attempt to change password, and the sms got to me then). Or the system is now jammed because of that gold ;)

  22. Thanks for the info, 300g is two discount garage slots :p
    The telephone number gives 100 only for the first time you give it, so dont try changing for +100.

  28. Seems like the SMS service is really gettting hammered to the ground at the moment.

  35. I play since 01.01.14 and this is the second time i changed my password and got 300g :D
    Thanks for sharing.

  37. Fuckin epic – i didnt receive my activation key via SMS, i cant temporarily remove my associated phone number, because sms activation key is required for it and now my account is stuck with pending request to remove my number! Great job me, great job WG. I shouldnt be so greedy next time.

    • the code they send is only valid for 24h, if you don’t use them everything stays the way it was AFAIK

  38. Looks like T-Mobile is out of service with activation code sms -.-
    Any one else have troubles ?

  39. i’m sorry but wasn’t it last time on russian servers a trick to take accounts?

  43. This is only the 2nt time I have seen it on EU, 3rd I have heard of it for RU.
    I did the phone thing to for +100 gold…

    Worth their time giving 300 gold out to make sure accounts are not stolen… I am sure account recovery is a drawn out and expensive process.

  44. Worked in the NA just did it. Did not bother with phone though.

    Got the gold on the following login.

  45. Sucks for those who added phone numbers to their account. SMS never came. Now gotta wait 24 bloody hours.
