Still no answer Huh
Can you point at least one our fake account or paid shil HuhHuh
I am asking this a few times already and no answer, why?
Because you can not
We never did this.
The reason you insist on telling this in most of your post is that you are not able to accept there are people that do not share your hate .

Still no answer??
Can you point out at least why you ship batch 2 orders of 3 weeks old before 2 month old batch 1 orders?

I never wrote you are a scam, I wrote what an incompatent hardware producer you are that makes promises after promises without keeping them. "I'll ship your order Friday or Monday" and you even did not know the order number for that promised shipping.

Considered them a straight up scam as they never delivered so not even on the list.

I will remove companies eventually that are not shipping as well to tidy up the list. 6 months no new shipping and I will axe them.

What about this company?
https://www.mining-asics-technologies.com/

They were advertising a lot in the last few months but didn't deliver.

If only Marto spent his time answering his customers questions eh? Or spend less time here or making up faux accounts and posts to persuade people to get in line and WAIT for his latest product that will be late. Simple if you are still in the market for miners. AVOID TECHNOBIT... order from people that ship now and on time and RMA without excuses. THUMBS UP suppliers in this thread do that. Technobit does not.

Thumbs down. Do not buy from Technobit.

Well Marto, I see you are online, why no comments on the out of order shipping, how can you ship batch 2 orders from 3 weeks old? What have you shipped so far, from MS' pictures it looks not even 25 to the USA?

Because he need to set up his own farm and cloud hashing first to recoup from the losses of buying ALOT of parts to manufacture the boards?
Martin got paid in chips, remember?  Roll Eyes

BULLSHIT. I paid in full. No conversion, no who's in inline shit. I paid straight up for 50. Got the PSU's, breaker boards, fans, all that. Converted half my breaker box to 240... and still nothing. 4 weeks my ass.

I should have had 50 boards here, yet difficulty is up another 20% yet again.

Marto... please, and I beg you deliver. Timeline for this venture is running out. Sad


I check my status of order at Technobit today. It is already shipped (16.09.2014 16:40 Sofia (BG)). I am from Europe and Batch2.

Order from 20.8.2014, chips delivered 28.8 - so about 3 weeks.

 This is not cool at all! I was one of the first from batch 1!

Who is Macher?

Seems funny that many of the posts that are positive in regards to technobit work are from newbs sub 39 posts glowing praise of how great shipping is or how great the rma was or how great the units or how great the communication is. Maybe just maybe this guy is not even a customer and his post is meant to dispel fears that not much of anything has actually shipped.

More Technobit woes. One more reason not to buy from them.

And BFL rumors of a raid. One more reason not to buy from BFL.

I understand that there may be a large contingency of people who do not believe what I posted earlier or will not believe it until they see it in the news or a government agency confirms it. But I hold in my hands a 33 page ex parte temporary restraining order filed by the FTC against BFL on 9/18/14 that names three individuals associated with BFL in it, specifically. I am not releasing it at this time for two reasons: 1) the person who gave it to me hasn't given me the permission yet, 2) it says "*Sealed*" on the bottom of the page next to the case number. I believe the fact that it is sealed is the reason government agencies have not commented on it at this point.

I went by BFL for the first time in a year today to see what was going on as well after I heard the news and I didn't see any agents, however I have received confirmation this afternoon from another completely independent source who was scheduled to have a meeting with BFL today before it was abruptly cancelled who went by and ran into agents there. This other source is a reliable and established name in the Bitcointalk forum and they can back up my claim publicly if they wish to, but I am not pushing them. I know what I have seen and heard from my sources and people can believe what they want until it is officially confirmed.


As to what Tech... is posting is all 100% factually true, I cannot be completely sure. I can confirm that Tech... is former BFL, just as I am. Tech..'s initial info from the same sources from whom I received my info, since my source told me that they had also spoken with Tech.... Nobody is pulling your legs here. This shit happened. Now, the US Marshals KC office was denying any connection to this action at least as of 4:30 pm CST, but they may have had reasons to withhold that info temporarily. I'm not too familiar with the US Marshal Service's protocol. Still, they entered the office around 10 am CST, and had employees leave all computers and any other equipment, files, and basically whatever wasn't personal property. They interviewed employees, too. I won't go into the nature of those interviews as reported to me, since I'm sure all of that will be disclosed in the case ahead. There have supposedly been two arrests. I believe there is at least one additional warrant at this, and it will be rather hard to serve.

There's a group of BFL ex-pats who, while employed at BFL, believed that company was doing things in so many wrong ways that it was difficult to keep count. IF you voiced dissent (and god could I tell you stories - I'm somewhat combative, which Tech.. can attest to, if he figures out who I am lol), your days were numbered. Tech... and I were not the best of friends, but got on well, and had at least some level of respect for each other. Tech... isn't the type to jump on and feed the community a bunch of bullshit. Sure, I've seen some ranting  and venting, and maybe even some posts that were written without the backing of solid info, but those are few.

This is no bullshit. BFL is being taken to task.

Black Arrow and Minersource more disappointments.

Well I can confirm that I invested a lot more than 10k with BA through Minersource. Currently I have tried to work out something with Minersource but they have stopped responding to my messages. I will probably end up suing Minersource if they don't get their act together.

If there are any other people in the same situation as myself - please contact me, thank you.

Sue Minersource for what exactly? Im pretty hes even more screwed than everybody else, cause it was this guy's main business. He will likely be declaring bankruptcy, at least we can just write it off.

In other news, Black Arrow responded to an email yesterday saying they cant ship my miner because they had to recall the power supplies, which I am aware of, but does anybody know if I just ask to receive it without a power supply installed will they ship to me as is?

Its an expensive paperweight, a novelty item which Im planning on keeping as a testament to my own hubris.



Well you see, to start because they have not refunded me a dime and I have asked for a refund in June. They did offer me some BTC Garden miners but that was not a viable option for me due to space and power requirements (my X3 order was to be hosted with Minersource).

Then it would be the small matter of BA refusing to honor (according to MS) some of the promotions they have ran in the past that were part of my contract with Minersource. They didn't bother letting me know - maybe because they conveniently forgot or they were just afraid I would have asked for a refund right away since not keeping your promises is a clear indication of a shady company - once they have your money they suddenly forget all the promises/promotions/deadlines, etc.

And third, because they have stopped communicating and therefore how can you expect any amiable resolution with someone that doesn't even want to communicate with you?

Because it's a major discussion in the S3 Thread:

Is Spondoolies-Tech using the latest version of cgminer (v4.6.0) in all their products?

We pull latest cgminer from github every time we build.
Spondoolies is the ONLY company remaining that is in sync with the mainline cgminer code and always push upstream any driver changes.
Quote above is from the primary developer of cgminer.

That says a lot for SPTech...

How would that affect say the ratings for others who do not? Thoughts?

There is a growing backlash against  a number of fabricators. It is important that is reported to everyone so I will be updating here any significant posts that call out manufacturers who are failing to support their customers. Unfortunately there seems to be elements that want to suppress or ignore these facts and give our community a false impression about many of these fabricators.

======

More complaints towards Minersource.

I totally agree. Avoid this company at all costs! Minersource has been avoiding direct emails and posts on the Facebook page regarding the pre-orders for the X1's and X3's  - The last update as of today was from 08/06/2014 which is the same rehashed useless information on when and what kind of compensation if any, we will get from BA.  They have also started deleting posts on their Facebook page that not only ask relevant questions about our orders but also criticizing them.  I have paid for my order in April and all I got was one email when I initially inquired almost two months ago - the same tired excuse that we will be shipping soon crap!  I never even got another response when I recently contacted them a few days ago and others on the Facebook page have the same zero results to our questions.  I am going to file a complaint and I have suggested others do so with the Denver, CO BBB.  For those interested, here is the direct link:


https://www.bbb.org/consumer-complaints/file-a-complaint/find-business/name/Miner+Hosting+LLC/80207/


I also requested a refund numerous times in the past and was denied.  They are NOT a professionally run business and I consider them an illegitimate operation.

Hey Gezellig4Geld,

I've given Minersource a deadline and I will be filling a complaint to the FTC and the BBB next week if they don't send a refund. Let us know if you ever got your money back.


Edit update: Marto74 and Minersource not communicating very well at all.

Marto are you behind in shipping (you said last week you would ship me Friday or last Monday) or in updating our technobit accounts to "shipped" status?
We ship as soon we have ready boards.
your order ref ?
Please quit dodging the question, do you have a list for minersource ready or not?

Others are organizing to act against KnC.

Have you ordered a KnCMiner Titan or Neptune?
Are you fed up with them and are interested in legal action and possibly a class action?

I'm trying to judge whether a class action suit would be a possible. Can you please state what you had ordered and why you would sue them?

Do you know a good lawyer or are a resident in Sweden? It would be helpful to have a contact there.

For example, I ordered a KnCMiner Titan. I am a consumer and would like to get a refund, because their products are unsafe (fire hazard, no CE marking), they have made false representations (Q2/Q3 delivery, 800Watt), and because they act in direct conflict with their customers (Batch 1 vs Batch 2).

My other thread collects information on replies from authorities and lawyers. Please contribute if you can!

You're a dumb piece of shit and a terrible businesman marto, what say you to that?


Guessing you wouldn't recommend his services then Operatr given your review of him here.

and the complaints of 0 information keep occurying will multiple accounts try to post positive reviews of Technobit. What a joke. Pretty transparent who is posting that eh Marto?

Amazingly Martin has time to post here but no time to answer his customers questions. Sad. Cry

Marto - Can you please give us an update on sending the customer list to Minersource for batch 1 customers?  I asked this same question almost 24 hours ago and it went unanswered.  Please let us know where you are at with this list because these delays are really hurting our ROI on these boards.

Still unhappy customers in Minersource / Technobit Group Buy...


@Marto: I paid over €4000 at the €-BTC rate of 07-17-2014. If I opt for a refund, will I get the equivalent of the € price in BTC at the €-BTC rate on the date of the refund, or at the date of paying (as in: the same BTC number as paid on 07-17)?

@Bobsag3, since the 07-22-2014 message I would be sent a check, no word has reached me through your broken Zen system, I had a reply by pm from Thomas my tickets and even your emails (minersource's) never came in or went out, and a fair number of checks did not reach their destinations. I asked to be updated on what is next for my case, but nothing since. What should I do next to get this moving?
Bump
We started to ship and problem solved even with hand replacement of MCU's
Your order is for EU so will be out tomorrow or in Monday.
As far all the boards are produced for the assembly service batch1 no refunds will be available for now.
second sending for minersource is out today/tomorrow too

 Marto.. Please go back to page 2 as I was one of the first to request your service and paid you in full conversion (no chip exchange) for 200 chips. I am seeing people with orders WAY after mine posting pics of machines in hand. Something is not right. Now you talk of MS second shipment. I do not get it at all man. Why have you not shipped my order?

Only person fucking himself over is Marto74. As soon as everyone gets a taste of his brand of biz you might see fewer and fewer examples like above. Simply use more reputable companies and you won't have a problem with delivery, RMA etc. Just start with the companies on the Thumbs Up list and be free of the BS. Funny how a lot of these companies seem to work together or have side deals? It is boggles the mind why anyone would buy from these companies given the alternatives.

How hard would it be to actually get things delivered without excuses? Simple as avoiding those companies on the Thumbs Down list.

Problems in the past continue today... nothing much has changed.

Might as well jump in here too.

Marto, through a botched Group Buy scammed me out of 1.43BTC

If you look at the details in his trust you will see many people have lost money to this guy.

In my case, he ran a group buy then 6 months later, decided to cancel it due to avalon not delivering,
and instead of PMing everyone in the group buy he leaves a message in a 6 month old thread telling everyone if they don't send him a message to him by a certain time and date with a special signature that you were out of luck.

In that very same thread month or more earlier I asked for a refund and he did not provide it.

Then when I finally saw his little message he said I was too late and all he was willing to do was ship me chips, which he claimed to do in October of 2013. You know what Avalon Gen 1 chips were worth in Oct 2013? NOTHING!

But even then he said he shipped them, they never arrived and he tried to get ANOTHER 0.10 BTC from me to pay for special shipping.

be an informed buyer, read the threads where he does business you have about a 90% chance, in my opinion of getting screwed in some way, late shipment (usually 3 months), No shipment,  lost shipment.

This is someone you NEVER want to do business with. EVER.
