I sent a $100.00 money order and 425.00 cash almost eight months ago. Appraently Get Bitcoin is confused by this and refuses to A.) process to bitcoin or B.) return my funds. I keep getting the same response to my inquiries "We don't know what to do!" Shocked

Well I finally was able to get my coins, almost a week past time when they should have been delivered and only after having my lawyer write up a nice but firm email explaining the situation from my point of view. I will never do business with Get-bitcoin.com again. Horrible customer service, as I should never have to hire an attorney to get what I have already paid for. Also they still took the 5% out, after all this bs they still think they fulfilled my order within "24" hours Tongue

LOL. Yes by all means add them to the "Disreputable BTC Users" list, they have gone out of their way to earn a spot on it in my honest opinion, and have run off a previous customer as well.

They should have been added to the "Disreputable BTC users" months ago. They did the same to me back in June.

I just checked the site, it's still down. It has been 48 hours since my "confirmation" email was sent to me by Hanna, yet no coins in my account, nor replies to my emails. I have checked via blockchain.info several times over the last 2 days and nothing, no transaction was ever started. Now they won't even talk to me or answer my emails. Mr. Mccabe and Hanna seem to have disappeared with $300 of mine so I guess I will have to consult with an attorney now and see what if anything can be done. I will give them until Thursday to make this right then I'm calling a lawyer, this is ridiculous Embarrassed

Well I guess my pleading email to Thomas Mccabe helped somewhat, until I checked my bitcoin wallet Embarrassed

. I received an email last night stating "my coins had to be manually entered but should be in your wallet in a few minutes." I checked my walled 2 hours later via blockchain.info and no activity or even any pending transactions. Realizing that maybe it had just not been posted yet, I waited and checked again tonight, over 24hours since I received the email, and still NO BITCOIN! So I'm not sure whats up now. Apparently Hanna is telling me she put my money in my wallet, yet my wallet tells me differently. I have sent 2 different emails to 2 different email addresses I have for Mr. Mccabe trying to resolve this as professionally as possible. I will let you guys know if/when I finally do receive my coins or if Hanna and Tom decided to try to pull some more BS on me. As of right now I would not recommend anyone do business with them, which is sad because if you had asked my what I thought of them 2 months ago, after my first transaction went through I would have said they are good, they just take a few days. Now, its more like, they take a few days then give excuses, then more excuses, then more excuses.

Same happened to me. I sent them a money order, and they keep making excuses. I'm starting to suspect I'm never going to get my money back.

The operator's identity is publicly known (see whois for getbitcoin.com domain) and is based in the U.S. (GetBitcoin LLC is registered entity in the State of Delaware - File# 4997818).

Hopefully, if they are winding down or whatever the situation is they'll either deliver or refund in full.

Delaware is commonly used to create "fake" companies due to there lack of company transparency laws.

Get-bitcoin.com is still down at all links I could find. I recently sent them $300, which my DCN confirmed as as received 10 days ago. I have gone back and forth with Hanna in regards to my order still being in "processing," which ultimately ended 4 days ago with me being told I couldn't receive a refund or have my money order mailed back. I said this was fine and just to please try to get this done as soon as possible and have not heard anything as of yet. I am hoping that I did not get defrauded as that was a nice chunk of a paycheck I had Cry

. I did business with them a month ago w/ $150 same way via money order and 5 days after they had my money order in processing I had coin. Now its been a week and my money is still "processing" as far as I know. Here's hoping my coin shows up eventually...

I don't think that answers my question. I sent $80 and the price ended up being $15.50 so I bought 5 X $15.50 = $77.50. What about the remaining $2.50?

The quantity you place your order in is in USD, not BTC (and vice versa for selling Bitcoin; you specify the amount you sell in BTC, not USD). In this scenario, you'd get 80/15.5 = 5.16 Bitcoins.
