Yes, I am. One correction though: It does not work for amounts lower than $20. Try it right now: any bitcoin address and amounts lower than 20, any valid data and it sends you back to the main page. How was that again regarding not giving preference to larger amounts?

So basically Bitinstant has been down all day. Try entering anything on the front page and it just takes you back to... the front page. How about an error message? Or maybe even a small note saying we're sorry.. but we're down.

Anything would be better than nothing. This is just extremely poor customer service. I'm not even talking about the fact that you guys are down but zero communication just shows how dysfunctional this is.

We're not down. Are you entering the correct data?

I paid for $50 worth of BTC two days ago, it cleared through ZipZap, and haven't heard anything from them since. It sounds like some other people are having their issues resolved, but it seems to me they are favoring people who purchased larger amounts when resolving issues. I would avoid using them, especially if you want your coins in a timely manner!

Why would we favor anyone? That makes no sense.

I dont see any tickets or emails from you, please post your info here.

Thanks

No, I tried to buy vouch x. They advertised that it would take an hour but it has now been 2 days and we don't have anything.

In order to dump coins one must have coins
Is it possible to transfer funds from Bininstant to btc-e? BTC-E's site claims "BitInstant: 13478 USD" but i don't see btc-e as an option to transfer to on bitinstants site

March 21st. It took almost 24 hours for my wallet to get funded, it's always been less than a hour every other time I've ordered from them.

you should ask for a refund of there servious charge! why can they say under an hour but then keep if for 24 and not give you a discount. like sorry bout that but oh well we still get paid.  Angry

I made a bitinstant purchase and it took them over 12 hours to sort it out. they would not respond to my calls emails live chat thing or any of my correspondence. I asked for my fee of 40 dollars back becouse it was not under an hour. they would not reimberse me anything.

im starting to think they are lack luster company that is just to greedy.

Its in my wallet. Time passed was 3hrs since payment.
Quoting myself so you know my original time
My bitInstant order was placed Tues Night Eastern Standard Time, cash paid thru Moneygram at Duane Reade Wed morning Eastern Standard Time.

I'll post if and when its in my wallet

Here's the kicker though. When I made the order last night 1BTC was $125 But when they moved the BitCoin in they used this mornings rate at $140 something !!
Now the rate dropped a bit so its a bit lame

I made a successful purchase with BitInstant/Moneygram evening of April 1. Took about two hours for BTC to arrive.
Well actually, it hit my wallet two hours later but it still shows as confirming when I hover my cursor over the transaction (278 confirmations currently). Will it continue to confirm with network nodes indefinitely? I thought usually 6-8 confirmations were all that's needed.
