Are any of you useless customer service people going to address the fact that 450$ of my f$*%ing money is gone due to negligence in your services. If your service would've worked I wouldn't have had to go here for support in the first place. Why in the HELL does that email you guys sent me say SOMETHING for christ's sake, SOMETHING!! about there being a code to all the $$ being in there. No you guys nonchalantly just throw it in two spaces below the information YOU requested, now I'm out 450$ and you guys can't say ANYTHING to me? Nothing at all? I've spent way too much $$ with you guys for this shit. With customer service like this, your company will crumble.

Respond to me or I'll do whatever I've got to do to make this whole ordeal just a little bit harder for you guys.
WTF is going on with my $$?

Yesterday I placed 3 orders on bitinstant and two of them were delivered but the first one i had placed (chronologically) hasn't come.
I filled out the support form also, and the e-mail said that i should expect my funds within 12 hours which has not been the case, and that after 24 hours (which is rapildy approaching) that my order will be escalated.

I was recently told that BitInstant uses MtGox's price to sell coins, and that you get the coins at the same price they were when you made your deposit. This is unacceptable as MtGox is frozen at twice the price of the exchange I addressed my deposit to and it has been FIVE hours since I made the deposit. I could have easily made profit by riding the dips on the other exchange, but apparently I will come into the market already having lost 50% of my investment.

Are these things true, and if so, what do you plan to make it right?

Execution prices depend on the type of service you used and multiple other current market factors.  If you have further questions or would like to open a ticket check out bitinstant.com/contact

Thanks!  Cheesy

I came here because I do not plan on sending another ticket and having myself re-queued. I don't really appreciate the non-answer, or your use of a smilie when talking about my predicament. I think it's pretty easy to see that my next questions will have to be more straightforward, so here goes:

Are you going to charge me $120 for BTCs that are now worth $60-$70?

I used Moneygram through ZipZap and yourself to send BTCs to an address for an exchange I am a member of. What are the implications of these "services" and the "current market conditions" relating to my deposit?

I'm sorry but I have no previous issues logges with you.  All support issues not go thru btinstant.com/contact

Often times the issues that you might think are "simple" are not that simple.  Thanks for your understanding!  Cheesy

ALL ISSUES MUST NOW GO THRU...

bitinstant.com/contact

https://www.bitinstant.com/order_status/17784607-c89b-47ed-9042-ea84ec208f00

I already filled the form at the URL above. The answer is (I'm afraid it will take longer than I expect since it's been more than 24 hours since Zipzap confirmed the payment...):

"Thank you for contacting BitInstant support! We are working hard to process your order and resolve your problem. If we need more information from you we will contact you. Otherwise we will process issues in the order in which we received them.

Please understand that increased volume, both on our site and on our partner exchanges, will influence the amount of time that it takes to complete your order. But please rest assured, your funds are safe and will be queued and processed securely. You should expect your funds within 12 hours of depositing
your cash or initiating your transfer. If you have still not received your funds within 24 hours of your transaction time we will escalate this issue for immediate attention.

Please refrain from sending multiple support queries regarding the same issue, it will not expedite our ability to help you and might requeue your request in our system.

Thank you for your patience! Be sure to follow @bitinstanthelp on Twitter for updates about our system queue and any problems we might be having".

If I logged your issue and I don't have your email address then I NEED it.  Send it to me!!!

If you already sent your email then I probably have already.  No need to resend!  Thanks guys!  Cheesy

URSAY,

Just received a confirmation email but it said was sent to an bitcoin address that is not mine.


Do you have any idea who the address belongs to or why it was sent to this address?

No. But I used bitinstant through blockchain.info to deposit directly into my account. No need to enter my bitcoin address for this order.

Do you know if blockchain.info will transfer to my account later?

I only have your zipzap acct. #.  An order ID # or quote ID # would be very helpful!  Cheesy

But the correct bitcoin address is 159f2uMV5SJT1muunbdrfG1nNrikDXVkvq

BitInstant does not auto fill ANY Bitcoin addresses so I don't know where that incorrect address came from.  I do see however that no coins were yet deposited to that address.  It is possible that Blockchain will deposit into that wrong address and then it will go to your correct address.  I do not know their processes.  GOX is likely also effecting your order today.  I would wait a day and then if your issue does not clear up you need to contact support at blockchain.info

Good Luck!  Cheesy

URSAY,

I have made a order through blockchain.info 4 days ago and don't received any quote ID or order ID. Could you help with this?

My ZipZap acct # is 929681716


Resent your order thru manually.  You may see some results soon.  Thanks!  Cheesy

URSAY, is there any chance you could try to push mine? I'm on the 4/9 list

Just resent manually.  Also tried this yesterday.  You issue may have to be resolved in another way but we will continue working to find out.  Cheesy

URSAY, I was on the 4/9 list as well and been patiently waiting!!! Please help a brother out!!

Tried to manual your order yesterday and just now.  Hopefully that will help!  Smiley

Thank you URSAY!! I haven't gotten anything yet but will definitely keep you updated!!

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".

This was posted on my Mtgox account:

Trading is halted until 2013-04-12 02:00am UTC to allow the market to cooldown following the drop in price. Read more details on the support. Additionally trading fees will not be charged within 48 hours of trading resuming (until 2013-04-14 02:00am UTC).

Someone is controlling the price or wants to. This whole thing is starting to smell fishy. I am glad I have very little money tied up with this. If I want to gamble I will go back to the casino were I know the odds of every game. Watch out guys.

URSAY I just want to make sure you've got all the info you need from me. I'm on the 4/11 list.

My email I used to order is  [email protected]

The bitcoin address where my coins go is 13CgzzbM6cmrPFbQuTC1F4sg75Pifk4RPU    

I never got an Order ID because my transaction didn't get that far.  In the event log, I'm stuck at "Mt Gox Order Loading"

Here's my bitinstant order page.

Is my order one that might benefit from being manually pushed through like these others?

I'd really love to get my coins at the crash price, that was the whole reason I ordered when I did.  I will lose too much money if I get them at the pre-crash price.


You issue was escalated because it is different then some of these manual push throughs.  Cheesy
