Finally got my BTC, but I will never use Bitinstant again. Change your fucking name "bitinstant" to "bit-1week". I lost 25% of my deposite because my order was not processed quickly.

When you are offering a service concerning an exchange, dont fucking lie about processing times! People lose money when you do this.
I promise, I will spread it far and wide that this company should never be trusted. I'm going to paste all my conversations with support on my blog of 50,000+ subscribers.

FUCK YOU BITINSTANT!

I know not to expect massive improvements like that to happen overnight. I do expect my single, small order to be completed over the course of two nights.

People are selling btc all over the place now, you guys can't find 1.5-2 of them for me?

C'mon URSAY, level with me here. What's the problem?

Come on dude. You're freaking out over 2 days. It's been 2 weeks for me. $400. $85/btc when I placed my order...

I'll be honest with you; I don't care about your order.

I'm here complaining at the level I am because I don't want to be like you 2 weeks from now with now btc. In situations like this, the longer you wait, the more fucked you are.

The squeaky wheel gets the grease, and I plan on flooding EVERYBODY at bitinstant with complaints until I get what I paid for. If you were smart, you'd do the same so you don't have to wait another 2 weeks.

I said this in a lighthearted , roll my eyes sarcastic way. But for what it's worth I already spent 2 weeks being a squeaky wheel and demanding answers and making threats. All it got me was ignored.

Hi Urslay. I'll go ahead and bite, try one more time to get my money which Bitinstant has owed me for 6 months. And be nice about it. I know what the reply will be, I know I am wasting my time, but here gos: This is from Rachel back on November 5, 2012!!!

Your Order ID is: 3ab032e1-32ba-4a82-8446-367bfc67fc75

I have other order IDs, as I exchanged many emails with Racheal and Charlie and Mt Gox trying to solve this issue. If you would like I can paste all the email corrasondce here, and you vcan go though and look up each and every order ID. It won;t look good on Charlie however, it will show him out to be a liar. It would be better if you just asked Charlie about this and you can come back and tell me "Theres nothing We can Do", and I can go back to warning peole about this service. Thank you.

Demand is faster then anyone can keep up with. We're always investing in anything we can do to improve your experience and we hope you will understand that such improvements can't all happen overnight.

Demand IS faster than anyone can keep up with. That's why your system is automated. In fact it's right in the name and the single biggest fact touted in all of the press about Bitinstant. The system used to be automated and in fact still is every so often when you have money. So why are these issues so pervasive if Bitinstant isn't a Ponzi scheme? It's a very simple matter: confirm customer money received, execute corresponding trade/deposit for customer. Zipzap's API isn't having problems, and I have contacted them and they say their API hasn't changed in months. That means that you should have no problem automating everything since you have no money problems, as Charlie repeatedly says. So why do these issues exist?

I placed an order (dwolla -> bitinstant -> mtgox) and my money has not shown up. I submitted a help ticket over 24 hours ago, and I have not received any followup other than the automated email.

I absolutely agree. They bought me off with enough money to give me what I should have originally gotten from them when I called them scammers in the scammer forum. They did it in a way to look like they were being crazy generous when, in reality, all they were giving me what I would have received if their service had worked properly to begin with.

It's a shame, too, because they're the easiest way to get USD onto bitstamp.

Ursay,

You haven't quit yet? Props. I'm still waiting on 0.39 bitcoins. My initial deposit went through (4/8 list) but the bitcoin adjustment for price changes during the waiting period has not yet registered (4/10 list). Thanks.

I did essentially the same thing as the poster above last Wednesday in two separate MoneyGram orders (due to ZipZap only accepting $500 at a time) amounting to around $550. As I walked out of the place I performed the transactions, I already received two BitInstant emails saying the money was automatically deposited into my account. Cool!

Not... Week later, I have no money. I confirmed that the Mt. Gox account number that I submitted for my transactions is indeed my correct number, which puzzles me, as BitInstant shows the transaction as completed but my account reads $0.00. I have used BitInstant's "Live Chat" (LOL) interface three times and supplied Order IDs in each one and received absolutely NO RESPONSE at ANY point, including to the fourth (and maybe even fifth?) that I sent to the separate [email protected] address.

I'm reluctant to post all my details in public view in this thread, so I hope that rather somebody official from BitInstant will help me either externally or assure me that my details are of no privacy consequence. I really hope someone can help me, because BitInstant seems like a reputable company! But god, I have definitely had a bad experience...

I had used Moneygram last week on April 3rd to submit funds through Bitinstant into a Bitcoin address but it was accidentally sent to one of my other Bitcoin addresses which I have no private key for. I had this Bitcoin address generated from Bitaddress.org. I had realized this on the same day that the money was submitted but I immediately emailed Bitinstant and even did the chat option on your website and I have gotten no response. I been emailing Bitinstant and leaving voice messages and still no response.

I basically have money on my Bitcoin address which is useless and I want to see if the transaction could be reverse or the money refunded since the Bitcoin address basically belongs to me.

The order status shows that it has been completed ok (Order executed - funds deposited at remote exchange) but the money didn't reach my MtGox wallet. Looks a little different from other issues I have seen here. Is my issue a hard one to fix? I was in 4/10 list. A manual push would solve it? The money has been stuck since 4/4... Cry

You have a GOX code. Have you tried using it? What was the result?

Yes I have. This message show when I tried to use it: This code cannot be redeemed (non existing or already used). And I never published this coupon in public.

But the e-mail I received from BitInstant says "We have made a direct deposit into your MTGox account and there is no need to use the coupon system on this order".

I'm sorry about the wording regarding the Gox codes. It's something development is working to fix.

We will need to cancel your old Gox code and reissue you a new code. Thanks for your patience while we get to your issue.

@URSAY that is my same problem I was on the 4/8 support list, if you can please push my order through. Thank you for your time.

URSAY - Just a quick question. I know things are crazy right now but I noticed on the bitinstant site that PayPal isn't an option anymore (only mtgox and bitcoin address?) and was wondering if PayPal will be added back in the near future? I'll be having some more funds I want to get off MtGox once they start allowing coupon codes again and was hoping to use BitInstant again.

URSAY, when you said my problem had been escalated, does that mean you are no longer doing anything to help me get what I paid for?

I've been in contact with Gareth, and at least he was able to give me a straight answer. Here is a portion of what he told me:

> MtGox resumes trading in just over 4 hours, at which point queued
> orders should execute..."

When can I expect my order to go through? My event log says this

Wed Apr 10 21:19:41 2013 f0c80d72-6fd1-4a6b-8e09-e9b78bd3d0e8 MTGox Order Loading

What does this mean to me and when can I get what I paid for.

Your order may go thru when Gox resumes. If it does not then we will have to continue looking into your issue. Thanks for your patience!

MtGox resumed trading an hour ago, correct?

Big surprise, I still have no bitcoins; that's why I'm still here. I don't understand why there's even a problem in the first place. My money was taken and processed just fine.

If somebody in that company of yours would just send me a few bitcoins to my address, I could get on with my life. As it is I've wasted 2 days being pissed off in front of a computer. What do you think will happen next time I need to purchase btc? Bitinstant is going to be hemorrhaging customers if you people don't start taking some real action. You still have a chance.

Demand is faster then anyone can keep up with. We're always investing in anything we can do to improve your experience and we hope you will understand that such improvements can't all happen overnight.

I know not to expect massive improvements like that to happen overnight. I do expect my single, small order to be completed over the course of two nights.
