Any news/updates on this?

No, last communication from them was on Monday. I am literally pleading them to respond but there is total silence on their part. I don't understand why they can't even inform us. They can just say they have troubles and will take some time but nothing. Almost feels like their attitude is to not respond and hope people will tire out and give up.

I am now extremely anxious as it seems there is a good chance that Coins-E won't be giving back my 12k PXCs. I don't understand what to so Huh

Maybe I will create a separate thread tomorrow which will hopefully put some pressure on them. At least it will warn others about problems with Coins-E.

I am not in a position to comment on people losing money, it is never good and really not acceptable.

I can say that running these things, shops, exchanges etc it is immensely time consuming to keep up with all the coins and people "requiring this" or "forking that". I am lucky enough that as soon as I see a "you need to upgrade" thread I can just turn the coin off for a few weeks until I can get around to making sure I am on the correct version. I then need to search out the original thread, upgrade, re-sync etc it is real PITA.

FYI, no-one has NEVER EVER sent me an email for any off the coins I take warning me or giving me notice! As such I have disabled quite few today until I can check into them.

Also screwing up by accident is not a scam, and in reality users of these new coins should share the risk of using them along side the service providers.

edit: this is just my opinion and not in any way an endorsement for coins-e's services or practices.

So how long do you propose we wait? A week? A month? Cryptsy usually solves a ticket in under a day. If they realy wanted to set things right they would have sent the coins manually but since they have no coins, that's kind of hard.

I'm still curious about the LBW fork and how they are trading? I think there was 25000 LBW traded on coins-e yesterday.

gica_contra, Scooby903 and me - are we three the only ones still suffering? I know Scooby has 9k+ stuck and me have 12k stuck - so thats 21k+ PCXs still unpaid at the very least.

If they don't sort it out by Friday, I propose to create a new thread calling them out as scammers and making everybody aware of their misdeeds. What do you guys think?

They don't respond to mails in a timely manner and keeps trying to blame others for their incompetence. But at the very least they should give us what we are owed.

Coins-E has over 40 crypto currencies, it's up to traders miners and the developers to inform us of major updates. and then it's up to the community to decide if they want to change their currency.

I'm sure Coin-E isn't the only one with a wallet on the Original chain as people have been depositing.
Please don't contact us via BCT use the contact us on https://coins-e.com we respond in under 24h to all members.

How are you still trading Lebowski while the coin is forked into two chains?

Thanks BitJohn.

If Coins-E lost our PXCs by not updating their client, won't deleting the blockchain and syncing again send the transaction on the correct chain?

Eitherway, they have to return our PXCs or we will do all we can to publicly call them out as scammers.

Yes most likely that would work but seems to me they either don't know how to fix it with their back end tracking wise or they simply don't have the coins to payout.

If there is a coins-e admin out their I need to speak to you about your Lebowski wallet. It may be operating on a forked chain. This is urgent

@Bit_John

This is the latest reply I received from them. Note the PXC wallet upgrade did not fix the fact they have been sending all the coins on some alternate chain, but it is definitely still and issue.

Hi,
Thank you for bringing it to our notice and for your patience.
We have updated our PXC client. Please inform users to update their client
too.
ORB is on maintenance and we will soon get it fixed. Give us sometime on
that.

Thank you

I sent yet another mail, must be my 20th mail. Extremely pissed off now Angry

Either they are scamming us by putting in false transaction IDs; or they are idiots who can't figure out and can't be bothered to set it right. Both BitJohn and Magnet have offered them help to sort out their problems but apparently they are not very responsive.

How long do you think we should wait before making a new thread warning everybody explicitly to avoid them? Till this Friday?

Unfortunately I am still dealing with the exact same issues, only I have not heard anything about a technical team looking into anything Undecided

Time     Token      Type      Status      Amount    Previous Balance    New Balance

This is what Coins-E is showing on their end.

I withdrew to a Cryptsy generated address that I had sent to previously (not from Coins-e though) and here is the block explorer info:

did you get them or can we write it as a loss and move on?

No, I haven't. When I asked them to show the transaction on blockchain, they replied saying their 'technical team' is looking into it. I contacted Cryptsy too and BitJohn says they are quote unresponsive (no surprise there).

Undecided whether these are scammers or useless idiots. Eitherway, if I don't get my PXCs I certainly will move on, but make sure to publicise this well so that others don't get burned.

Well, got the transaction ID from them - but it does not show up on the blockchain Huh

This has been way too much trouble, and I still don't have my PXCs Sad
