Topic: KNC has been given enough time, it's time to do something about it. (Read 3095 times)

Shame, is this company turning into a Black Arrow, BFL, HashFast, CoinTerra, AMC, etc...?

It looks like Bitmain is the only company left that's not defrauding its customers.

Do any of you has recovered the money? I have the same problem since May.
Kncminer sends all the time the same message that they are busy.
What actions you undertake?

You can always try this option but I can bet they'd ignore you.


It's sad how they failed to send you a miner and are offering another one for your trouble. Imagine going to a store, paying for a tv and being informed that you you can have neither the product nor the money, but as a compensation somewhere in the future they'll send you a new model that hasn't been made yet

Ha, that's the old question. Should you rather hope for the best or try to pursue all possible legal actions in order to receive some money, but may force the company into bankruptcy by doing that!

what will you do if they do not pay ?

Hello,
Since shipment has commenced we are no longer accepting refund requests.
You can either chose to hash at 3TH/s until your Neptune ships, or wait for your Neptune order and receive a bonus Neptune or Titan.
Thanks

Hi Kurt,
I'm not interested in KnC offerings, whether KnC afraid or not.
As far as I know, big money corrupt people; according to KnCMiner's CMO, Nanok Bie.., KnCMiner makes less than $3.6 million USD a month from mining.
Lots of KnC customers are complaining: Items are not recieved; Items are used/second hand; Items are faulty/burning and so on.
I'm not interested to pay thousands of $$$s for KnC DIY product.
I will accept refund only, in money and/or in BTC.
Please, make a full Refund.
Kind regards,
...

I have been requesting a refund since my super jupiters came in because they are not performing, and I have them all setup just fine. I have them running at 1.6TH right now, and have never gotten to even 2TH, let alone 3TH. I've requested a refund or to be put back in queue for my Neptunes that were originally ordered from batch 2.

After my 8th RMA today, Keith replied threatening me saying that KNC will no longer offer me any RMA's. So if my hardware breaks, i'm stuck with it according to Keith at KNC.

I'm pretty sure that is not legal either. Nor is withholding my refund request simply because they shipped my used hardware I paid $10,200 USD for.

I'm in talks with my bank about getting a refund, and they are doing research to begin the process of allowing me to use their team of lawyers against KNC.

I offered my bank 20% of the refund money as compensation for their lawyer fees. I will keep you all up to date. I've also informed them that there are SEVERAL other people that also want refunds and have been refused so far. Once I hear back, I will let you all know if there is any good news.

Please e-mail me if you want to be kept in the loop.

- http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/archive/redress_cons/schemes_en.htm
- http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx

I believe, we need to take one action everyday:

Day 1 - Report every where possible;
Day 2 - Create a blog and concentrate all complains there;
Day 3 - Get a attorney and analyze all possibilities ;
Day 4 - Tweet, Facebook, Bitcoin portals ... Complain, complain and complain a little bit more ...
Day 5 - Request USA court to stop KNCMiner website from sale;
...

Until everybody receive !!!

Let's start working my friends !!!

Wow I feel bad for you I would have warned you all about these companies but then people would have said where is the proof?  Now you guys bring the proof.  I know BFL, KNC, Blackarrow are all con-men.  I hope you can catch these guys but im sure they preorganized this and if you got scammed for only this much and you don't have a legitimate address then they can get away with it

I am off on holiday for a couple of weeks Slice, when I am back I will see if I have been refunded if not and you have already started legal proceedings I will join with you all.

I don't think that the Mod's should not have moved this thread down here but in the Hardware of Group Buy sections perhaps they didn't want to mar the shop window showing all and sundry that there are as many problems as vendors.

You will never see your money again.

if you have been ripped off by KNC start making complaints to regulators.......

Don't forget to file a complaint with Bitpay if you are having problems with your refund from KNC. You can call Bitpay at (855) 424-8729 to leave a message if you would like to file a complaint. Make sure to leave your email address and they will contact you by email.

lets stay on topic, lots of people want their money back and would appreciate constructive advice.

This topic is not a laughing matter, but damn nibbknot, that made me laugh.

I have an idea but fair warning it's drastic. They're in Sweden right? I suggest we boycott Swedish Meatballs. That will teach them to not screw with us EVER again.

we all know this is a scam, we have seen it with BFL avalon blackarrow hashfast etc etc. the real question is what are we going to do about it?

Does that mean that those working in the office don't answer their phones when the assembling line fires up? We're talking accounting debt., not janitor or assembling or shipping. This is nothing but a stall tactic and lies.

here is the link to the KNC forum. does anybody have any advice how we can proceed with complaints and a lawsuit?

http://forum.kncminer.com/forum/main-category/acccounts/46180-knc-has-been-given-enough-time-it-s-time-to-start-taking-action

I've had several people contact me saying they also have not received their refund from KNC. They expressed concern KNC is a scam and suggested we get organized and start taking action. We need to start a list of people who have not received their refund from KNC. Then we need to start making complaints to every regulator we can find. If that does not get us any results then it's time to start a class action lawsuit before these people run with our money. Complaining to KNC is not getting us anywhere so we need to find out which regulators we can make complaints to. If you have not received your refund from KNC post here to be added to the list.

look at their forum.
