Question on Server Change

So if I get this right, changing from a hi pop to a preferred gets you the stuff they talk about. What about changing from a "standard" world to a preferred, anything for that, even a free transfer, or will it cost?

I just did that and they charged me for it. Dont know if I got the xp boost since the only class I am leveling at the moment is over level 60

You didn't. Exp bonus is only for NEW characters. It doesn't apply to transferred characters. See here:

Oh damn, I thought it was just any transfers to the preferred worlds. I was planning on finally moving from NA to JP datacentres, but if I am coming from Leviathan that means I won't get to transfer more than a million and won't get compensation for my house? T.T

Transfer incentives only apply to players transferring off of congested worlds to low pop worlds. Or transferring from any world to the new worlds, which doesn't really apply to NA.
