FINALLY got my refund from BFL.

Congrats!  They still won't give me a refund on mine because it hasn't been over 6 months yet.  Their system is a PoS compared to newer systems too.

FINALLY got my refund from BFL.

Glad to hear that. You should use that money to buy Bitcoins directly from the market, rather than trying to mine your own. Right now, BTC is going at $470 / coin. I personally believe that this is the right time to make purchases. Once the Mt Gox scam settles, you can sell a part of them and book profit, or better you can keep them all for long-term.

So, like they want, just tweet that you want them to "take my bitcoins".
Seriously, they are just plain retarded.

I keep trying to tune into BFL's fabulous new TV show but it has been delayed for 2 weeks.

Sad perhaps they need more time to make things work correctly.

Anyway this is great news for the world of Bitcoin!
Much support it will bring.

It's only 10k.  Wouldn't be worth it.  I'm expecting they will eventually refund me.
I'm not mad , it's a little disappointing to have missed the mining opportunity.

Wow... $10,000 is a huge amount. You should have at least threatened to file a lawsuit. There is no point in keeping that much capital stuck with the con-masters.

So they take everyone's bitcoins promising miners and give them...a TV show!

What a great funding strategy.

Nobody would have sent their bitcoins if they knew they were funding a TV show.

Now they need "sock puppets" to win the BTC, so they are really keeping the money (again)

TAKEMYBITCOINS.TV
The domain name is full of irony.

The site and the show could be dealt with in entirely legal ways which would result in its shutdown and potential banning by search engines.

My $.02.

Let me clarify the 9 months... I was waiting about 6 months for 4 50ghs machines, Never got them,
Then they came out with the 600ghs card and told me I could get two of those instead, waited 2 more months,
Then they published something about refunds, and I requested one and it's been another month.  They said I have to wait 30-45 days till someone takes my place in the queue.  Still haven't gotten any money back or machines.  

Have you ever considered filing a lawsuit against them?

i bet the guy that has been waiting 9 months........ has been WAITING 9 months.

if i was him instead of WAITING 9 months i would... be PESTURING BFL everyday.

though i have seen in different businesses where customer queries are simply "gimme my moneys". with no info on order details, reason for refund, or a refund address yet the customers of theses sites class "gimme my moneys" as a rational and official refund request

that being said BFL are asshats and i have never bought a thing from them. im surprised people do buy stuff from them without doing the research
