Since you call it Asia Pacific server, the free transfer eligibility should be for Asia Pacific players...
FYI, Australia, NZ, Singapore and Hongkong is only a part of Asia Pacific, you have players from Indonesia (like myself), Malaysia, Phillipines, Thailand, Japan, China, who, under the impression of your (BW/EA) news in the website played the game before Asia Pacific launch (i.e. Before 1 Mar 12) under the false sense of security that we will be allowed to transfer to AsPac server once it is opened (which apparently we are not allowed to since we are not from Aussie, NZ, SG or HK).
Pllease consider this, and for future reference, if you are referring to only a number of countries please don't refer them as the whole region/continent as it is annoyingly misleading.
You don't call the UK and Germany as Europe, they are only part of Europe..
