How can we get involved with this? I am continuously in contact with black arrow and all they do is lie. Everday they update respond to my email with lies and nonsense. I'd like to know where I can start if anyone is currently involved with pursuing legal action in any country regarding this matter.

Did you buy from Minersource or directly from BA?

In a totally different and not-related-to-their-ethics topic..

Anyone got any ideas on this problem..?

After moving my X-1's to a different location its like the miners are unresponsive - not taking DHCP address properly I think?

When i run the miner manager I find:

239.71.000.000
239.71.000.001

and then I enter the

http://prospero.blac...owsoftware.com/

it shows:

Updated MAC 2014-08-21 10:58 baac084401c6 https://192.168.10.14

date makes no sense does it? - I just put em online today.

And I cannot access the miners via the link above..

I'v looked at the switch they are connected to, and i do not see any mac address beginning with "baac" ... :/

I believe that we have already informed our customers of this: We are currently waiting for CE to check the X3. Until completed, no shipment can be made.

We would like to ask forum users to stop flooding the thread with obscene messages.

Thank you for your patience.

What about CE certification for the rest of the machine? The one YOU produced?

3. i've decided to go after Alex himself

so am now starting legal's in the uk against Alex, destino and bbyte. so i'm thinking the court costs are gonna be staggering... but they will be applied back to alex... if im successful Tongue

if not i'm eating beans for the next 3 years ROFL.. but i think he needs putting out of action totally.

So long as tangible progress is made, I will throw dollars (Or Bitcoins) into this to assist.

I would also donate to this cause if proof can be provided.

I got my new hashboard today. Thanks to bobsag3 from Minersource!

Now my X1 is running at nearly 100 GH/s with 1000 Hz:

Who is this Daniel Andronic you're saying we should report? Mostly everyone mentions Alexander Sovu or something like that.

I believe that Minersource's Bobsag, and likely the other guy from the European reseller, know who runs Black Arrow. As does likely David. They probably have much more detailed information on how to get ahold of them. Let's be serious, Bobsag and company aren't putting in website tickets. They call someone directly. Who is that person? It's not Silvia.

The resellers should provide this information if anyone is really going to know who exactly it is that needs to be sued. As Black Arrow themselves taunted in a response to someone asking them, "Who do you intend to sue?" because they know their identities are hidden.

If you want law enforcement to get involved, they need to know who to go after and how you connect the dots from the company to them being behind it. Otherwise you're just spamming their email with not enough information.

Maybe they can figure it out, since they are the law, but it doesn't make a lot of sense to provide Daniel Andronic's name, and have nothing else to connect him except his Facebook page. No address, no phone number, nothing. You have any legal papers to show he runs the company or anything?

You can complain on bitcoin forums until you're blue in the face, but unfortunately that won't change anything.

But as BFL's current woes show, if enough people complain to the authorities, they have to step in at some point.

If BA has your money and won't give it back, complain to the Hong Kong police. If you paid to a UK bank, also complain to the UK financial authority.

Truth_Seeker did his homework for you and posted all the information you need:

Difficulty's stepped up by 16% in the last day or so, making any miners that now arrive even less useful.

The difficulty is now about 16x what it was in January when Black Arrow promised they'd be delivered by. Bullshitting, scamming, self-mining bastards.

Legal action is definitely possible.

This article has some interesting info on suing a Chinese Company from the U.S.- http://www.chinalawb...ted_states.html

According to a business lawyer friend of mine, the FTC can request that a Chinese company's funds be frozen while litigation takes place. He also said that U.S. companies and consumers sue Chinese companies often, and that they have decent success.

I personally haven't considered it yet, but if someone is willing to organize a class action suit, I'm sure plenty of people would be willing to join.

I wish BA understood that all they need to do is tell everyone what is going on, and agree to a good compensation plan. I'm positive this would make many customers happy and willing to wait a bit longer. ( The compensation would need to be at least 3x at minimum, but they have the equipment.)

If they don't act soon I'm sure we'll see legal action begin. I just hope BA isn't waiting for that to happen before they start delivering.

Just my 2 pennies.

If they were going to boost compensation, they would have done so long ago. It's just a stall tactic to keep people placated.

The minion products are a total loss at this point. All customers have been screwed. It's time for BA to own up to that fact.

All BA need to do is ship the X3 with a power supply shell that consists of the internal connector at one end and a standard ATX PSU connector at the other.

Of course that would mean they'd have to stop mining with the customers' X3s (hosted at the datacentre they announced was ready in May) and start shipping them...

When will this be completed? When will my orders be sent? It's been almost a year now. How did you expect this to have come together in February? Are we getting some 14nm chips in these for compensation?

...maybe in February - 2015...

what about x1's then?
i'm still waiting and many others with me

I like how BA uses the excuse of one miner to not ship the other... It makes no sense as the only thing they have in common is the chip itself and the heatsinks. The backplane, hash board, case and PSU are completely different in the X1 vs the X3 yet they still can't get their X1 orders shipped. Pathetic.
