Bitinstant scammed me for $500
I sent 6 x $500 bank transfers through zipmark. They have all cleared my checking account. Bitinstant only transferred 5 transactions. They refuse to send my final 5 btc. I WANT MY BTC! And no longer replying to my emails either.

Is anyone using this since the relaunch ? I posted another thread about this as well:

I also PM'ed Yankee - and in the past got very quick replies from him. Trying to figure out what's going on with them.

Looks to me to be a scam of type. Says one-hour but nothing. Even said the money is in my Paypal account. I guess I will have to go post my review of this service.
If this is your first paypal transaction with us our delivery partners review it manually, future transactions should be instant.

Did take some time but it went thru. Thanks!

How long does the PayPal exchange take? It says it was already sent to my PP account, but I see nothing.

I was just about to begin a new Bitinstant transaction, and I notice that sending directly to an address is missing currently - is this a temporary thing? I know previously it has been taken away when you guys were under an attack. Any idea when it will be back?
Thanks!
EDIT: Sending directly to an address is back, and I was able to do my transaction earlier today.

Is BitInstant no longer giving out Bitstamp codes? I only see gox, ppusd, coinapult, virwox, bitcoin, and vouchx, and I believe depositing a vouchx into Bitstamp requires Aurumxchange, which charges a 2% fee...
I think they have it from time to time. It's running out of stock because they are cheap then aurumxchange

I just want to mention that something changed between now and the last time I was regularly using BitInstant - they've gotten fast.
During the last three transactions the funds were credited to my Mt Gox account before I walked away from the cash register. Last I remember it would take about 15 minutes so I could look forward to being able to trade as soon as I arrived home. Now I'm getting the "transaction complete" emails before the cashier finishes fumbling with the paperwork and hands me the receipt.

Glad to hear you've noticed the improvements

I heard that you removed the option to have bitcoins sent straight to an address? Is this true?
Just for the night while were under attack.
Will BitInstant still support MtGox when they stop using USD code in April?
Yes of course.
Will it be bi-directional (i.e. other currency -> mtgox USD and mtgox USD -> other currency)? How will it work?
I ask this because I'm not sure if I should keep USD on mtgox now as I worry that I won't be able to transfer it to other exchanges later
Yes of course
On April 10th you wont need MtGox codes anymore to withdraw.
I cant say more until its tested and implemented, but I will have the ability to 'request' a payment from your MtGox account. You login to your account, and approve the transfer to my account. All this can be done from within the BitInstant website
-Charlie
When would this be implemented?
