I've said it so many times, I have submitted two tickets on the support page and I have received two automated emails. I have not been contacted by any real staff member. What is going on?
Same here, sent in a ticket, got the auto mail, nothing since that.

Apr 11, 2013 9th day NO resolution -- NO money -- BitInstant still has it. Apr 12, 2013 10th day NO resolution -- NO money -- BitInstant still has it. Friday surprise was supposed to make us happy.

Apr 14, 2013 12th day NO resolution -- NO money -- BitInstant still has it.Not accusing, that's for court, but here's the definition of FRAUD:
http://legal-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/fraud
"A false representation of a matter of fact—whether by words or by conduct, by false or misleading allegations, or by concealment of what should have been disclosed—that deceives and is intended to deceive another so that the individual will act upon it to her or his legal injury." ....

And No Ursay, If we get our money, I don't want to shut you down. It's been almost 2 weeks on mine, so YES if we don't get our money, Dang right you OUGHT to be shut down. Happens all the time, and I'm confident that another who respects contract law and customer service will replace you (BitInstant).
April 14, 2013, 09:24:17 PM
Ursay, I haven't heard back from support from either of my two submitted tickets. You said you escalated my issue, but what exactly does that mean? Blockchain.info is now showing that address as being $131 short.
Are you seriously expecting me to make up the difference from my own pocket? I need the exact amount I gave your service, you are wasting my time and money.
I'm beyond livid right now, I cannot believe this.

Your case has been logged and support is looking into your issue so we can provide you with a solution. Please be patient.
No, I haven't had any contact with your support. If I didn't come on this forum and hassle you, I wouldn't have heard from anyone at all. Do you think that's reasonable?
It is still not clear if you've logged your issue at bitinstant.com/contact and if you've received an email that states customer service is working on your issue. Can you help me understand this? Thanks.

They are opening the bitcoin-24x system again with Engine 2.0 (including the fix for transfer procedures).
Withdrawal and deposit through SEPA is not available at this time.
They are still converting all accounts to version 2.0 which will take some time. But because of the pressure, the new alpha engine 2.0 is now available on https://alpha.bitcoin-24x.com/

Always send cash to the exchange then you are in control of the price. 
That is the best advice someone could give. I undersign. You get then exact amounts and don't stay complaining about discrepant exchange rates at time of processing/conversion.
In my case, I had cash deposited to gox through BI. At the time, BTC was $85. I was buying ahead of what I knew was an imminent rise in BTC value. We all know how it skyrocketed a day or two later...

Congrats SingleByte on getting YOUR money. How many hours was that? Haven't seen your report links in a couple of days and NOW it sounds like they're going to take the weekend off. Hey it's party time right? Screw the guys whose money we have.
Taking the weekend off? I've been posting yesterday AND today. Can you see my posts?
Yes< URSAY, I see your posts. I also saw your post to CHASE where you said you AND/OR other people supposedly working on our cases will resume activity MONDAY, so quit your BS. Since I can't put it 2 quotes that I know of, here's the CUT n Paste to refresh your memory of non-weekend workers:

I was told that it was going to be worked on. If that is not the case then I will remind the support rep whenever I see him online or in the office on Monday.

Folks, I have received my deposit to Gox, after about 17 days. However, it's only been about 3 days since I logged my complaint here. . Ursay I want to thank you for sticking to your word. I'm not gonna lie, I'm a little disappointed that I still got charged bitinstant fees... and that on top of that I have to pay $100 per btc instead of the $85 it would have been if my deposit had been processed correctly. But, somehow I feel like I won today, and I suppose that's worth something. Thanks.
Thanks for posting. Again I apologize for any issues you have experienced. If you will allow me to open a ticket for you regarding your execution price I will try to resolve the issue for you. Would this be okay?
Absolutely. Just tell me what to do and I'll be on it faster than whores on crack.
Folks, be patient and give these guys a chance to help. If you provide the appropriate information in the correct places, you will get your money. Even I was skeptical at first, but I think it's clear that these guys are getting it done.
Order ID # ?
This is the one I got today which successfully deposited funds to gox:
OrderID: 64a95439-ebb8-4fc1-8b0d-52439abbbdb9
This one is the original I got on Match 28: OrderID: 412773bf-8dc9-4316-99be-317fe346947e
THANK YOU URSAY !!!
I'm sorry but could you please be clear about what I am looking into? I only need information regarding orders that you have a problem with. Thanks for clarifying!
Ursay, You asked me to provide you with an order ID so you could look into an execution price. In my last post, I provided you with both the order ID for my original transaction on march 28, which was unsuccessful( when BTC was $85), and the order ID for the successful deposit that finally made it to my gox account today. I wasn't sure which you would need in order to look into the execution price, so I gave you both. Please let me know if there's something else I need to do. Thanks much.
Give me exact figures. What did you receive? What did you expect?
@URSAY
Oh , got ya. Well, at the time of my deposit on March 28 btc was apx. $85, and today was bought at $95.90. I saw it posted here that Bitinstant would be honoring the BTc value at that time of their failed deposits. But how do you do that if the BTC was purchased from GOX and BI isn't actually supplying me with the BTC? Honestly, I'd just be happy if Bitinstant would reimburse me for it's transaction fees at least. I mean, I don't wanna sound like too much of a bitch , but putting me through what BI just put me through for 2 weeks, costing me $ in BTC value, and then charging me apx. $25 for its service just feels a bit like a slap in the face to me.

Sorry for the delay! I just manually processed your order, and you should

Ok so my order from 4/12 was pushed through. However, I only recieved 3.70151298 Bitcoins on a cash amount of $476.257605 including fees. Without fees I paide 496.05.
Regardless, that is obv not the proper amount of bitcoins. Wondering if there is way to look up the specific price from when I made my order, at 2:21 Eastern Standard Time.
Anway, I went to bitinstant.com/contact to fill out the form again but it won't let me, saying that my quoteID has already been used. It was indeed used for the initial report to push through the transaction.
So, how do I request the proper amount of bitcoins?

f2275a92-c99a-4be1-a106-3db4ddd1717f
also, I do not want the bitcoins to go to the initial bitcoin address.
I'm showing a transaction hit your address for 3.70151298 BTC. Is this not your BitInstant order?
I was due $476.257605 worth of bitcoins. I made the order yesterday at 2:20PM Eastern Standard Time. So, that is not the correct amount of BTC.
Also, I do not want the compensation to go to the original bitcoin address. I can provide the new one when you are ready.
Please provide FULL details. What did you receive and when. What did you expect to receive?
On 4/12/2013 I initiated a cash deposit to bitcoin address at 1:35PM Eastern Standard Time. It was for $496.05. After Bitinstant fees, I was to recieve $476.257605 worth of BTC to the address 1Kw8rrHypsDx6YBr98mVcfgpHLPv44Awxj

I moneygramed the amount at my local store and ZipZap processed the transaction at 2:21 Eastern Standard Time.
4 hours later, nothing had happened so I notified via bitinstant.com/contact. At 8:16PM EST, 3.70151298 BTC hit the bitcoin address.
Now, I dont know exactly what the price was when I initiated the order, but it surely was not $476.257605/3.70151298 BTC = $128.665658495/BTC.
From looking at the MtGox graph, it should be around $65-75/BTC if I am reading it correctly. So I am due ~2.5-3.5 more BTC. If there is a way to look up the exact price at an exact time, then I could find the exact amount.
This issue was already logged. Thanks for providing more info!
Thank you.
Ok, so I presume they will be looking into it and will be able to tell the exact amount of BTC to compensate. I would like those BTC deposited into a different address than the one for the order. Hopefully that is possible. I can provide that address now, or later. Let me know.
I am waiting...

Hey everybody I'm back to try and help with your issues as much as possible...
What is the deal? I haven't received my bitcoins and its been nearly a week. That's ridiculous. Please inform me on what is needed in order to complete my transaction. I can't believe you call yourselves BitInstant... What a joke. Horrible service.
I'm sorry but I do not have you on any of my support lists. Have you logged your issues anywhere? The normal support channel which sends your issue to multiple support agents is...
bitinstant.com/contact
Yes I did (twice), and *GASP* no one has bothered to respond.
