I'll update as well...
- Today's balance from mining.... Current Balance 0.00000000 BTC, no deposit in over 24 hours with several physical miners (no hashlet bs)
- Haven't heard back from GAW on the status of my shipment, now more than a week with no response
- Posts deleted and threads were locked on hashtalk when trying to get an answer
-Was quadruple charged maintenance more than 10 times, credited back manually each time, but they state "it's a bug in our software". If I didn't watch it carefully, it would have gone unnoticed.
- Offered discounts and additional virtual hashing in effort to appease complaints, but not actually fixing the complaints. I'm mining to make $, not get coupons to buy more trouble.
So far I'm out of pocket a few grand, they appear to be very, very inexperienced in running a business. They are focused more on hype and marketing than actually delivering products and services to customers. The optimist in me believes they are not intentionally trying to defraud people, but their lack of business experience in supply chain management and customer service makes them appear as fraudsters.
I highly recommend that you stay away from GAW if you're considering a purchase (either of physical equipment or virtual equipment). They just have no idea what they're doing.
Wow seems like i'm only getting half swindled compared to you. My miners started working almost right away when I purchased them.

Care to explain why your posts were deleted? If you read the forum rules and behaved like all the other people who post there they wouldn't have to delete anything. Other forums are also plagued by such behaviour and have posts deleted and trolls banned, KNC is a good example here.
They also said that if you want the miners sent to you you'll have to wait 2 weeks, a week has passed and you're already on the offense.
When you have to create an account to purchase from them, create an account to create a support ticket, create an account to get support from hash talk, go to bitcointalk (where fortunately you have an account) to be able to talk with others about how they are scamming us, their time frames mean nothing. I was supposed to have a 24 hour time frame, they held real close to that.
It is clear seeing what is going on that they are setting up for a final scam.
If they were not than why would a maintenance fee randomly start when it hadn't been? Furthermore, why can they not turn it off and refund my btc?
........because they do not want to.
Why are they letting us withdraw our money then? Well....because they are scamming us on maintenance costs. If I purchased a miner from them
solely due to 3 months of free hosting, then they bill me anyways, they pocketed money from the miner sale, and an additional $225 (this is on a large scale, not like they are doing it to some of us.) If they freeze my btc, they get like $70, if i don't check it for over a week. Keep in mind this starting happening when the hashlets came out, something else filled with controversy.
I don't think they started with the intent to scam, I just think with the altcoins collapsing, they figured out a way to cut there loses before collapsing.
