News from the Blizzard forums regarding the hurricane hitting the southern states. Not sure how helpful it is as if your out of power your not likely to see the post anyway, but thought I would pass it on, maybe your checking news from another location and have power (work, school, etc).
Any player affected by the hurricane should call our Billing department to turn off their account until they power is restored. Characters and items on the accounts affected will not be removed, deleted, or changed during the time the accounts are turned off.
Here is the phone number to our Billing Department: 1-800-59-BLIZZARD (1-800-592-5499) 9AM to 6PM Pacific Time, Mon-Fri, except holidays.
