Uhh starting to get unsettled by this ICO, sent my payment during first few minutes of ICO and after they had issues with the smart contract I'm now stuck with tokens from the old contract.
Transaction TX if anyone wants to see for themselves:

Asked a different person on support they said they'd distribute new tokens at end of the week but looking at the public crowdsale address for the new contract I can see they're giving out tokens as we speak.
Really poor comms not seen anything published about what people in my position are to do. I'd recommend to anyone else thinking about it to do some research.
This is direct quote from news article that they were going to issue new tokens to those affected within a week
"Here we suffered losses: before the attack, the rate of charges was $ 18–19 thousand per minute. After an hour and a half break, when we resumed the collection, we were collecting “only” $ 4–5 thousand per minute. This did not stop us from reaching the goal of 50 000 ETH, but slowed down the process and, most unpleasantly, we will have to assign a new token to all our users. As a result, those who bought tokens before the attack will receive a new version within a week,"

https://medium.com/@kickico/how-they-tried-to-hack-our-ico-d348659dc4Just updated to add none of their telegram groups are working either. Luckily I only invested 0.4 Eth into this scam. Feel sorry for anyone that got hit hard by this.
Please, do a research and if you followed the news - we have redeployed the smart contract for token and crowdsale.
New tokens will be sent to everyone's address who have previous versions from PreICO and the first hours of ICO - in 2-3 days after ICO is over
OK, research. Can you point me to any announcement where it says the new tokens will be issued 2-3 days after ICO is over?
Also why have both telegram groups disappeared and your support staff on the webpage gave 2 completely different answers to what you just told me. I've got the convos for both which I don't mind sharing.
If anyone is still considering investing in these please do some research beforehand.
Look at their twitter feed, no replies.
Both telegram groups have disappeared.
Original ICO smart contract was hacked which is why it was closed down. They said they'd issue new tokens within a week. It's now been 8 days and no updates.
I'd recommend having a chat with support staff on their website too, you'll quickly gauge how 'professional' this ICO is.
