Guys,

Can anyone offer any advice?

I have had to get a replacement iPhone from Apple as mine was damaged beyond repair. I restored the replacement phone from a backup and launched CC.

A brand new (level 1) game started and I was prompted to select my perk.

I went through the settings to try and do a game transfer but it's asking me for a user name and password. I tried my in game name 'chairmanmaw' and a few passwords, but I dont ever remember setting a password for the game?!

Should I be using my 9 digit code?

is there a default password?

Any help would be appreciated. I've spent a year neigh on, getting my hood up to scratch and I'm not ready to throw in the towel just yet.

I have sent a support request in to gree but havent had a reply yet.

Cheers,

Chairman Maw

Email Support and give them your old Id number if you have it and your new one they should be able to transfer your account.

As he already stated, he did send a support ticket. He has had no joy so far via the support system so going on the forum would be the next step, wouldn't it?
People don't just come onto the forum to *****, moan and troll like yourself. Believe it or not!

Im replacing my iPad tomorrow, when I go to set my game up on my new iPad do I just have to type in my funzio id and password then the game will start loading up on the new one?

Edit- I see that there's a "transfer game" button, but I'm not going to have the old iPad once i get the new one. will it still work without pressing the transfer button on the old one?

When I got a new ipad I used the transfer game on the old one first then the transfer button on the new one.. if i remember correctly you have to designate the old device versus the new one

suppose you already have a funzio id. If not, create one. (clipboard→more→funzio id)

1. on your ipad, sign in your funzio id, tap "transfer game". choose "old device"
2. on your new device, after finish tutorial, when menu(clipboard) is accessible, clipboard→more→funzio id, tap "transfer game", choose "new device"

When you started the game a yr ago in settings/funzio id- did you make an acct with funzio? Email was optional but you would have had to put a password. Some people never signed up and never set a password. It's to secure your game so you can transfer. I beleive the email is for ticket support and if you sign up with like tap joy for extra gold to get credited.
I would advise everyone to do this if you haven't.

User name - is in game name
Password- could be whatever you made it or none at all. It's not your 9 digi code
I would think if there's a default password then people could steal accts very easily.

Good luck and please let us know if it happens for you as I haven't seen it or heard it done yet.
But I'm still new so it might be possible.

So before i go over to apple I should hit transfer game on the old one. then when I get the new one a couple hrs later, I just hit transfer game again and type in my funzio id? Seems easy enough

for the OP or anyone, it's a good idea to write down/record your UDID number for your device just in case ****t happens....

make sure you have an id setup before hand if you haven't. I did my transfer right in the store and it took very little time once i typed in the code correctly

Yeah I set up one a couple months ago. Good thing i asked, I was planning at first just to type in my id on the new one. I probably would've been stuck sending a message to support and waiting forever to hear back.

They should make you sign up after like lvl 5. To avoid these probs.

when i sent an email to support from the device i get player id, device id etc in the email it generates.

also settings, general, serial number on device will give you the device serial number

Glad to see the forum seems to universally despise this troll... At least we can agree on something around here.

No reply from Gree yet.

I defo didnt setup a funzio account. That should surely be compulsory FFS?!

Not confident Im going to get my game back at the moment. The silence is deafening.

Oh yeah, (MS13)TURKISHTIGER - Posting questions on a forum related to the game is EXACTLY what the forum is for, you clown!

Im sure you'll hear back soon. I had 2 tickets out for over a week and got them both answered within 20 min of each other. They're probably just really backed up on tickets.

Just had my account restored. 6 days it took. Of course, I've been ****d blind and lost loads of income. Cracking service for someone who has paid money to play this game...... honest.
