Would Blizz accept a Garda Card as a form of ID?

    So, here's the story. I had to restore my iPhone yesterday, so like the Authentication FAQ says, I made damn sure I had a backup ready and waiting so that if everything went pearshaped, I could, as they say, "quickly restore your previous install of the Battle.net Mobile Authenticator". Well, things went pearshaped and when I tried to restore from the backup, the authenticator had reset.

    Sidestory, I am currently getting my Passport replaced, so I don't have that. And I don't drive, being a cheap and poor student. So the only form of ID available to me when it comes to chatting with Blizzard to get my account back is a Garda ID. And their call centers seem closed right now, (until monday, I imagine) so I thought I would check with you lot first. Anybody know if they will accept it, or will I have to go without Starcraft 2 and WoW until I get my new passport (early september)?

    Hi! Thanks for the reply.

    Happily, I tried restoring to a slightly earlier backup, and now everything is back to normal. That was a bit of a panic!

    Thanks for the help though!
