I've just re-downloaded LOTRO after being inactive for several years (last time I was on was about the time the switch from Turbine to SSG happened, so 2016 or 2017), and my account is still there. Whew, that was a relief. However, when I go to any of the servers I was on, none of my characters are there. My characters weren't on servers that were merged, so transferring shouldn't be the issue here. Still, I clicked the transfer button, and none of my characters on any servers showed up, and at the bottom it said I had 0 LOTRO points, when I should have about 100.
My main character, Ervaiel, was a elf hunter and was around level 40-45 on either Brandywine or Laurelin (I can't remember), and I had just bought the Angmar quest pack after saving up LOTRO points for quite some time. I really don't care about getting LOTRO points back or my other characters- I just want Ervaiel and Angmar. Anyone have any idea what happened or how I can get them back? (Tickets have already been submitted to SSG Help, but no progress yet).
Thanks for any help or advice! Stay safe everyone!
I am having the same issue as you! It has been several years since I logged in and before the company changed hands. I too am missing all characters and have submitted a ticket and posted but still heard nothing back. I am really at this point given up and playing ESO instead as it has support and high pop. I just stopped here on the faint hope someone answered but nada. I wish you luck on finding help with this issue. Please post back here if you ever get a solution as I would be very interested to hear why it happens. Stay Safe!
