The characters on your account will remain on the account for 90 days (until they expire) but Blizzard will be fixing the issue so that their servers can recognise your account names again and everything will be fine.
Seems to me the time could be considerably less. I refresh the toons I'm not using, but want to keep, like every 75 days. If one of my accounts went missing on day 74 then I'd only have a couple of weeks before the characters themselves would expire. If someone else made the same character name before Blizz fixes the account logon problem, then those toons would still be gone. Along with their items.
