if you transfer your character can you log into the account at all?

Question

some confusion to the process as i saw on the support site it says you cannot log in while the transfer is active or else it may fail and your charecter may be locked

however i am confused if that means can you not log into the account at all.....or just cannot log into the character being transferred while it is in the process?

just to make sure. anyone done it lately? how long did it normally take? i hear 24 hours up to a few days...

(for same account just to different servers)

You can play everything except the transfer/s

great.. just wanted to make sure ;-)

edit: yeah took a few hours but transfered way faster then i thought it would. also at first they said if you do a faction change you had to wait 3 days apparently that has been removed as i did a faction change first and was able to change the server a few hours later with no issue!

You can login into other characters but not the character that is being transferred until the transfer is complete.

I did quite a few transfers over the last week and it took around 20min to 30min per character
