Tank Commanders,

You may have once sold a Premium tank, regretted your decision, submitted a ticket and waited a week or so to get it back.

If this sounds familiar, you’re in luck! We’ve heard you and we're working on a tool that will make these decisions easily and quickly reversible.

Starting with Update 9.16, you won’t need to contact the Customer Service Center to reclaim tanks and dismissed crew members. In fact, you won’t even have to close the game client to resolve this issue. It will only take a few clicks in the Garage to return a precious vehicle or crew member to you with their combat statistics, medals, skills, and perks intact.

While we're of testing Update 9.16 and squashing bugs, we’d like to give you a heads-up on the ins and outs of this new feature. Let’s get to it!

Study The List

To kick things off, let’s talk a bit about what can be recovered. Following the release of the update, you will be able to reclaim dismissed crew members and Premium/Special Event tanks sold after the launch of Update 9.16.

The following can be recovered with this function:

Crew Members Can be recovered for free within 48 hours of dismissal

Can be recovered within 30 days after the first 48 hours for 60,000

Condition 1: You must have enough available bunks in the Barracks

Condition 2: Crew Member must have at least one skill or perk or enough experience points to acquire one Premium Tanks Can be recovered within 72 hours of being sold

Buyback price = Selling Price + 10% of Selling Price

Condition 1: You must have an available Garage Slot

Condition 2: Applies to all vehicles that can be purchased with Gold in-game Rare Tanks Can be recovered at any time, provided that there are enough credits to buy it back

Rare Tanks can be recovered once every 3 days

Buyback price = Selling Price + 10% of Selling Price

Condition 1: You must have an available Garage Slot

Condition 2: Applies to Special Event vehicles, Premium tanks given as rewards for missions and other competitions (including campaigns on the Global Map), and those that used to be sold in the past but are currently not available for purchase.

How Buyback Works: If you purchased a Premium tank for 10,000 and then sold it for [ (10,000 / 2) × 400 ] = 2,000,000 , it will cost you 2,000,000 + [ (2,000,000× 0.1) ] = 2,200,000 to reclaim that tank. This formula is permanent. Special offers and discounts do not apply. If you don’t have the required sum in credits, but have enough Gold to buy the needed amount of credits, you will be offered a chance to convert them.

You will still have to be careful when managing your vehicles, because some vehicles cannot be recovered:

Non-Premium tanks

Vehicles taken away by the Customer Service Center

Premium tanks if their recovery period has ended

Rental tanks credited for completing battle missions if their rental period has ended
