How to remove a real-id from a friend in BattleNet? - From below of couple in casual clothes carrying big carton box together while moving packed personal items into new apartment

I accidently added someone as a real id friend in battle net, and they accepted. Now we both want to remove the person from the list, so that the other person shows up with the username instead. How do I do this ? I can't see anything on Blizzard's FAQ



Best Answer

There's not a way to "downgrade" someone's friend status.

The simplest solution would be to simply remove them as a friend, and then re-add them via Battle.tag alone.
