ATM transfers are free.
You can only be on one server per account, to my knowledge.
When you transfer, you are moving the account over, not the characters. So they all go with you.
Transfers take about 2 minutes depending on ANet. Mine did.

When you first open the game, you pick your home server, every character you create will be on that home server. For the time being transfers are free, when things stabilize a bit with the servers they’ll cost about $20 (IIRC) worth of gems, and will have a cooldown of one week, plus you won’t be able to participate on the current round of WvW matches if you transfer a server, or get your server’s WvW bonuses (this is to prevent someone taking advantage of server transfers to go from a losing to a winning server in WvW).

Later (again, when things stabilize) they plan on adding a feature called “guesting” meaning that if your friends are in a different server you’ll be able to “guest” in their servers and play with them on the PvE side of the game, but you’ll still represent your home server in WvW.

It’s a pile of Elonian protection magic, mixed with a little monk training,
wrapped up in some crazy ritualist hoo-ha from Cantha.
A real grab bag of ‘you can’t hurt me. They’re called Guardians.

Thanks man, so its an easy way to be with friends if something happens its a good thing, so i will create a char at Jade Quarry, but why this message?
“…If you want to move to a different home in the near future you will need to purchase a world transfer.”
I am kind of scared to chose my initial World LOL…

Hi every one. Dose anyone know if you lose any progress on home world transfer such as Harts, Vistas, Etc…? I found out where some of my friends are, but I’m afraid of losing what I all ready did.

Thank you
