Fix this, or stop requiring it to change title in group finder.

EVERYTIME I try to login to battlement from a browser, before I can accept the login request, it backs me out to the username/password input page over and over again.

I’ve spoke to multiple people who have the same issue. Please fix it. Or don’t force us to use it in order to edit group names in group finder.

Very disappointed in you blizzard. You guys needed to fix this ages ago.

Fix your broken system and have some customer service

Forcing everyone to link their phone number real genius if it actually worked. I have done everything listed from support still don't work. Because simply cant add my phone number so i can play my wife no issue. Literally have the same phone service. How about you actually have someone answer the tickets.

Blizzard is a scam!

Do not get their Authenticator if you have to get it replaced they will absolutely scam you. My phone broke with Authenticator I’ve sent over 20 tickets in now, I’ve been charged 2 wow subscription for 4 months that I can’t cancel and my bank wants to charge me for to cancel, blizzard support just keeps sending me the same email saying they’ll fix it and for me to log in and guess what that REQUIRES MY AUTHENTICATOR, I’ve told them every ticket I can provide my ID or any information and they just keep sending the log in email. I am so sad I have been a customer of this company for over 2 decades and I will never play another one of their games. I am now having to drive to the city to close my bank altogether and get a new bank to resolve this issue. I will make my story known everywhere blizzard you seriously screwed up just to rip someone off a few months lol.

App Works as Intended

Blizzard’s Authenticator app works as one would expect, but I wish you could configure your account to use other standard options for 2FA. This app was great when 2FA wasn’t commonplace, but now it would be nice for customers to use their choice of 2FA solution.

I’m finally writing a review

Look, I’m going to be real blunt here. I have had this app on my phone for years. Y E A R S. And I always forget about it. Then when blizzard hits me with the two factor…. It’s always there… in my face… saying, I got you bruh. So you bet your sweet candy canes I wrote a review when asked. They deserve it.
