You are saying that you didn't get payments from Genesis, but in fact you did. You posted screenshots that they are paying.

If you look carefully wizzkid, you can see that the payments aren't paid properly. I waited 6 WHOLE days to get paid and the day after that, they started with excuses again and that they would start a payment process the same day.

I also didn't say that I didn't get paid. They just don't pay you properly and come with many excuses every freaking time.
You arent paid off by them? How? knowing that payouts are automatically sent from those people who did invest on their cloud mining. Dont tell me that they are doing manual payments as of now. Honestly speaking this is my first time to encounter people who didnt get paid by genesis mining for how many days. 6 days is really a long wait and another day the problem arises again. better to contact them asking whats really the matter.

Did you read properly before making your post? there is a difference between not getting paid and been paid late, try to spot the difference. Ummmm!

So I'm not sure why nobody has considered taking them to court but if we can start a class action I believe that it would either give everyone what they want or force them to shut down completely. Either way, it's a win-win for most of those that have invested in the last few years.
Thoughts?
Lots of complaints and shady acts made by Genesis Mining and also i didnt even expect for them not to update that image saying Life-time contract.It is
indeed being ended a couple of years ago but they havent change which it would really lured out newbies into cloud mining believing into that kind of life time thing.
They do soon realized that they are already trapped.

Their reputation is completely destroyed by cancelling their contracts. There are a few people on Twitter that have less than 5 posts and are saying only positive things about it making me think that Genesis is trying to fabricate positive comments so that it doesn't seem entirely negative. As I explained to them many times before if they want more business they should want to attract their loyal customers back. Those that have spent tens even hundreds of thousands on their contracts. You know... the ones they screwed over? But instead their relying on attracting new (naive) customers while their loyal ones continue to tear down their reputation. Makes no sense to me why their doing this. What they should do is do right by the ones that feel scammed by giving them something. Reactivate their existing contracts and put a 2 year term agreement on it. If they start seeing profit then they'll buy more. That's all they need to do. It'll save their reputation and even keep them from getting sued.

This seems to be a rather old thread but I want to participate.

I purchased 7 contracts. All of them said that they were the "Lifetime Bitcoin - Gold" that were ended




and when you purchase the hashpower with the slider it even says "Mine Forever"




They even went as far as e-mailing me asking me to review my purchase of Lifetime Bitcoin Contract - Gold

Here's the agreement:

Now here's the funny part.
I explained on Twitter that they lured and attracted customers by saying that it's a "Lifetime" contract but in the agreement the terms say "open-ended" (not lifetime) which I believe to be a classic bait and switch scam. Then they ask me how old the image that I shared was claiming that I couldn't have purchased it because the details that I posted on Twitter so there was no "bait and switch." They stated that they went away from the term "Lifetime" in the later half of 2017 because it caused confusion. They somehow figure that I'm not entitled to the argument because I didn't purchase any that state "Lifetime." Obviously they're grossly mistaken.



So I'm not sure why nobody has considered taking them to court but if we can start a class action I believe that it would either give everyone what they want or force them to shut down completely. Either way, it's a win-win for most of those that have invested in the last few years.

Genesis Mining is DECEPTIVE and FRAUDULENT
Genesis Mining do not uphold their part of the agreement.

Genesis Mining frequently stop providing your daily payout numbers, so you don't know what the payouts should be and when the reporting of daily payout number resumes, there are gaps and missing days, the average of what is reported to teh p[payouts differ - always in their favor.

Genesis Mining continually stop providing payouts, so you don't get your coins transferred to you, and when they restart the amounts don't align with the payout figures provided.

Genesis Mining always blame their IT department for the missing transactions and payouts, so therefore the frequency of the issues means that they have a unreliable and ineffective capability to provide a reasonable service to you.

Genesis Mining only seem attend to support tickets after you publicly embarrass them on twitter or Facebook

If Genesis Mining is not a scam then they are recklessly incompetent, something the law suites against them will prove I am sure.

I am in Australia and would gladly enter into a class action or multiparty law suit against Genesis Mining and its entities.

I do get paid by them, but not properly! See here my Ethereum deposit details:

This is the address from Genesis Mining: 0xFE92a3cf1843B5eC7CCf27b2AE753faC1289Fa9D
Then the best thing you can do for now is to contact them and telling them about your concern or issue since they are the only ones can resolve such thing because i didnt experience such thing because i do recieve payout anytime and automatically. There might something wrong with them in your case because its somehow manual as far as i can see.

I did that and they won't do much. If you complain, they respond very late on purpose. I found a contract lawyer in Munich who will be contacting them soon. We are in the process of preparing for a lawsuit if nothing comes back from them, because I want to get out and I have the rights just like anybody else.

Hi Aerial, I replied to one of your post in this thread earlier today. Did you really manage to get in touch with a contract lawyer to deal with the matter legally? If so, please tell me if it's possible to arrange a class action. It would be great if a number of people were gathered. This way would be good to bring legal assistance costs down. Even if a class action is not possible, please keep me posted. Let's catch up via email. Is there a way to PM on Bitcointalk? If you can, please give me your email contact.

There is not any law for cryptocurrency, how can you fill a lawsuit. No government will protect you from mining or trading.

Hi Aerial, I have been looking for productive threads where a serious action against Genesis Mining can be organised.
I am glad I have found some helpful reflection on Bitcointalk also.
I know that payouts are automatically executed. That's what's really surprising actually. What I can tell you for sure is that sometimes payments are simply not made, so that missing payouts accumulate till a nice sum is created. Apparently, a large number of customers are experiencing this kind of fraud. Please understand that this is not a mattere of discussing the ROI opportunity. This topic has been discussed a lot across dedicated Internet quarters. The principal point here is that they may not pay. That's it. A support ticket is opened, and they don't respond. They simply don't care. I systematically update a document illustrating all the payments issues I have, and open a ticket. Nothing. Since the support staff is inexistent, I also wrote to S. Schindler, Genesis Mining CTO. I wrote to the sales department. I also wrote to the PR manager, in the hopes that someone might care. In the meantime, payouts remain missing in multiple algos.
Importantly, this is not a matter of subjectively expressing points of view on cloud mining investment. Everybody can says what thinks about it, at any time. Different perspectives on whether it is a viable investment or not. What I am saying here is that they decide not to pay. And because they do discard the assistance requests, they are not paying intentionally.
I know people that only received a small portion of coins after paying the contract. Genesis Mining seem to be using the hack and infrastructure reconstruction arguments to generate confusion. Time goes on and on, and coins remain unpaid. After weeks and months, nothins happens.
Check this out:
https://www.reddit.com/r/GenesisMining/comments/6uave4/lets_organize_a_class_action_against_genesis/
If someone here knows about someone legally organising to act against this dishonest company, please get back to me in this thread.

Funny is how first they have some IT problems, and then later a hack is announced. Every time a service runs into problems, they blame it on hackers - so convenient. Anyway, this is another story in many stories you can find online about Genesis Mining. They claim so much and look so professional, but so many customers even from more than 1 year ago complain that they lose money.

Lesson: cloud mining is not profitable, unless you are a whale.

There's a thread here at Bitcointalk about Genesis-Mining and as far as I know, the creator of that thread, which is also part of that cloud mining site, is still active in answering and posting there. Try to post your concern about their company in that thread. There may be people there with similar complaints like you against Genesis-Mining and you might even get support from them in your fight. Here's the link to the thread, if you want to post a complaint against them: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/genesis-miningcom-worlds-leading-hashpower-provider-602022.

last year the Genesis has a good reputation about cloud mining business but today as people realized that cloud mining is not profitable anymore and are prone to scam some are keeping away from this kind of service because some of them are victims to scamming modus operandi but the problem is how to file a lawsuit if the representative from this service are fictitious and no real identity even if the cloudmining facilities are nowhere to found.cloudminig are unregulated and no protection program to investors, so the lesson is stay away from any too good to be true cloudmining service.

Hello everyone,

I would like to share you my story about how bad the customer support is at Genesis Mining. This is not a joke and I will post screenshots to prove to you that all of this is very much real as it can be.
After watching BoxMining videos on YouTube, I wanted to buy contract for ETH mining, when the hype period was very profitable. At 2017-06-17, I started to buy ETH contracts (see screenshot below):

https://image.ibb.co/i4WsSQ/Screen_Shot_2017_08_22_at_14_24_31.png

Aaaand guess what, the very first week made me scared after not receiving my Ethers from them, because they said that every payment will take place in 24 hours and I waited at least 28 hours:

https://image.ibb.co/mUr6Mk/Screen_Shot_2017_08_22_at_14_29_06.png

I started to Google around if people had the same issue and saw that some of them had the same problem. After some time, I gave up hope, because I was scared not to receive any Ethers from them anymore,
because many, many people where starting to complain when they would receive their coins.

After 1 month, I started to think that this was a real scam, because I didn't receive payments for at least 6 days! A friend of mine told me that they got hacked:

https://image.ibb.co/diOvgk/Screen_Shot_2017_08_22_at_14_58_11.jpg

So after I contacted Genesis Mining for a full refund because I didn't trusted them anymore and this is what I got back:

Here are the payment details:

And here is the chart:

Here are YouTubers that promote Genesis-Mining (I went for it because of them):

- Crypto Nick https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPWHmSfAsAiaKhMxNoIoByg

Here are YouTubers that have the same issues as I do:

- Cryptown https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX-4p0qTlzA0QkVhxqY6iPQ/featured

Here is a link where you can clearly see that people have the same problem:
