Topic: Butterfly Labs Forced "On Hold For Refund" for all my Single SC orders - page 45. (Read 59168 times)

Yes he does - and he is hell bent of advising bfl customers to get a refund - why is that?

Warning: If other people get an asic then I will earn less. It could be a scam!

Don't he have like 60Gh/s of ASIC mining power?

But you have been refunded - who are the 'we', from now on ? - not you.

Basically you posted too many posts slagging off bfl - they got pissed too and refunded you - what more is there ? (apart from PuertoLibre putting his oar in as always because he wants to remain 'I am an ASIC miner' - google 'I am ASIC miner' and you find PuertoLibre ...)

[EDIT] - I love the fact that you posted publicly that you 'ignored me' - which you never did I bet - so if you reply you look like a liar - sweet

Can you guess what he does with that tail?

Isn't a 'wrench' a tool?

OOOOOH, it's amazing how strong the butthurt is with this one! He's gone completely sour grapes over the whole thing, and now wants to make sure that he can disrupt the company enough that nobody else gets their orders either.

What. A. Tool.

(Added to main topic)

If you are a former, or current customer of Butterfly Labs, and are disgruntled and fed up with how they have conducted themselves over the last year, I would urge you to contact the following agencies and filing formal complaints.

The more light we shed on Butterfly Labs' business practices, the more chance we have to effect positive change and hold them to anything resembling responsible accountability to their customers.

I would urge you to not openly complain on these forums if there is any way Butterfly Labs can trace it back to your orders with them. They have demonstrated a will to punitively cancel and refund orders.

Finally, I would be lying if I didn't have a slight concern of someone affiliated with BFL showing up on my doorstep and confronting me for creating this thread, seeing as how they know where I live, given their checkered history. But lets just hope that's my paranoia kicking in.

Not important though. A hardware wallet is a lot easier to do, and there is not much point in ordering one before they are ready to be shopped. No train to leave any stations etc. -Totally different animal.

Well, Avalon isn't the only company to deliver ASICs (ASICMiner has the fastest shipping I've seen yet), but BFL likely won't deliver anytime soon, that's for sure.

Hey did you hear Puetro has 60 GH/s happily mining away but actually it is more like what 68? Right ?... wonder where he got that? Right AVALON... the only company to deliver.

If you want I can keep bragging for him if you want?

God forbid your speculative order of speculative technology from a speculative company that you planned to use to mine a speculative currency doesn't go through.

Two months? TWO MONTHS? TWO MONTHS?!?!?!? hahahahahahahahaha

Blue cable = USB 3.0? (30watts when powered)

Too bad Avalon hasn't thought of making a thunderbolt powered ASIC Miner. (a really small and efficient one)

Reminds me of Matthew's eLete (or was it Ellet or Eleet?).

I will accept your answer as gospel, Xian.

THEYMOS, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!!!

This stinks on so many levels, I don't know where to begin. One thing is for sure, anybody who has invested early with BFL and has shown discontent is in danger of having their order canceled at any time, especially if you have a trade in, for obviously it's to their best interest to not get it back--even if they had room in their warehouse.

I've never complained via email. The only email correspondance I have had with them was strictly business; for the refund of my Single SC's, an FPGA single order back in ~Mar 2011, and an email for repair of a bad fan in the FPGA. Probably ~5-8 emails in total over my business relationship with them over the last couple years.

The only places I have complained were here on these forums, and trolling Josh about the 1000 BTC charity bet on the BFL shoutbox before he silenced me.

My email address starts with "xian" so it's not a far stretch to match that to their customer database after speaking to the fact that I had early orders.

I was purposely hunted down to be punished and silenced. There is no other rational explanation I can think of.

Shy of having direct proof that such is or will occur, there now is a way for BFL to mine with their units prior to shipping undetected. How? Since a myriad of other ASIC-base miners are in the wild, they can easily connect to other reputable pools not their own anonymously, get paid bitcoins from various sources. There would be no way to track them short of the pool owner(s) disclosing private information like an IP address, etc.


If you happened to bug the shit out of BFL via emails, then I could possibly see a slight reason for their actions. But if you're telling me that you only once or trice complained via email, but they reversed engineered your user account ID on this forum (and/or possibly their's) because of your critical posts toward them, then BFL has severe mental issues.

That tells me that they took the time and energy that could have been used elsewhere to punish you by refunding your money, and now they don't have to worry about the trade in you were planning on sending them (gleaned from your post history).

Please enlighten me as to which is the case: too many emails to them or they purposely hunted you down. Please be as straight up as possible with your answer, bud.

Also, aren't there several others hyper-critical of BFL who have orders on the books? Aren't they, too, now is danger of having their order(s) canceled simple due to their post history?

You can count on the Avalon chips arriving months ahead of the BFL unit. Smart move. The Avalon chips will make up for your losses from ordering a BFL.

2 nil - you are cooking man - warning - others will have an asic soon
