Bitinstant, please restore my faith in you and address this transaction. NO MTGOX involved, just a private wallet address. No coins have arrived it has been over 48hrs!

I just checked the address this guy sent his coins to. They made it OK according to blockchain.info

Good morning,
Reserves are up again, can you push my BTC-e order through now?

Quote from: URSAY on April 02, 2013, 07:39:53 AM

theFed...support is looking at your issue and I am hoping to have a resolution for you sometime today. Thanks for your patience!

Sounds good, I'm really looking forward to having this thing resolved today.

BitInstant,
It's been 6 days now and no resolution yet. I would think my so-called "support ticket" should be at the top of the list. Let's get this fixed today please.

Now that MtGox has proven itself NOT WORTH OF BEING AN EXCHANGE, I have moved all my money over to BTC-e - Sorry to jack this thread...

But, I would like to know the process for taking money out of Dwolla --> BTC-e. And, it seems theFed is having difficulty too. There is no option on the BI site for BTC-e (or any other non-gox exchange)

What are we to do?

So your asking how to use BitInstant to transfer funds from Dwolla to btc-e...correct?

Yes, that is what I am asking. I don't see an option on the Bitintant site, and theFed seems to be having problems.

I'm going to ask about our current relationship with btc-e when I go into the office later this afternoon. I'll let you know what I find out. I can tell you now that all on going relationships BitInstant has with these other companies is always changing and evolving just as any relationship usually does.

Day 7 and the saga continues...
I saw my name mentioned above and thought I'd provide an update. I'm still awaiting my funds, and admittedly loosing patience.

FYI louisBSAS... I submitted cash at CVS for a BTC-e.com deposit on Thurs morning 3/28/13. At the time there was an option on Bit Instant for funds to be deposited into BTC-e. This option seems to come and go from the Bit Instant site. From what I've observed it's only available for several hours each week.

On Friday Yankee (Charlie) from Bit Instant offered to move my funds to another exchange. I told him that I did prefer BTC-e, but if it was no longer an option he could send the funds to my MtGox account instead and I provided him with my MtGox account #. But sadly Bit Instant has failed to take any action.

Me giving Bit Instant 7 days to fix the issue has been more than generous. After today I won't be polite about it.

I would be upset as well. I personally only open a ticket for you fairly recently but I know you may have been dealing with this issue longer. I will try and find out more about your situation when I head into the office in a bit.

URSAY, what's the good news my man? Did you find out anything when you went into the office?

UPDATE:
Issue resolved. On April 5 BitInstant deposited the funds to my BTC-e account. It took them 8 days.

I deposited USD yesterday via CVS/moneygram and still do not see USD on Mt. Gox 12+ hours later.

I did email support@bitinstant as well but this seems to get the most attention so posting here as well.

The relevant details are:

DestExchange: mtgox
eventtype: Order executed
EventSentAt: 1365033362.7
APIResponse: MTGOX-USD-XTFD9-EYJUZ-R2SYH-E75E7

If you need any other info, please let me know.

Have you received any confirmation emails? Check them closely for MTGOX codes. If you have MTGOX codes in your confirmation email then you need to redeem them. Let me know if you still need help. Thanks!

And just to beat a dead horse because I can't sleep, earlier today bitinstant's own customer service rep (URSAY) didn't even realize/identify there was a Mt. Gox code in the APIResponse there, and if so didn't do anything about it.

I don't point that out to be a dick, just to say if your own employees can't identify it, how are you going to hold a customer culpable (not saying you are, I have no idea because haven't heard anything)?

Although I still don't know for certain if my coupon code I inadvertently posted was indeed stolen or just never worked in the first place like multiple other people have reported, so I'd like to confirm that first.

What I did early when I saw someone post their mt gox coupon code unknowingly I redeemed it myself and then generated a new code to give to him because I knew if I didnt take it someone else likely would, and they would be less likely than me to give it back.

Ok, They ARE HELPING.
I had $300 lost for over 2-3 days, and have been sending email to support, posting on this form like everyone else here.
And they did get around to getting my funds though.

So this is not a scam, they really are getting payments though, but slowly and they obviously have some processing issues.
My payment, once it got lost or what not took about 3 days or so to get resolved. My problem was not the wrong MtGox address (with the extra letters) but just the stalled during transfer error, the one that says 'loading'.

anyway- Bitinstant DID finally get my money though. So they are trying to help.
Just wanted to spread some good news here along with all the grief!

URSAY, I was just wondering how you were planning on handling the cases where an email was sent that specifically stated there was no coupon code needed, and then when the funds didn't show up you encouraged individuals to post details of their orders, which unbeknownst to them contained a unidentified coupon code...

I know I haven't lost as much as some of the others on here, but this is still unacceptable.

Everyone...

Overwhelming volume is the issue here. Your funds are NOT lost. BitInstant is NOT scamming you. All orders will be resolved.

Please try and work WITH me and not against me so I can help you resolve your issues.

Spamming this thread does not help me help you. Please include ALL of your information regarding your transaction in 1 post or PM. Partial info or just complaints do not give me the resources to help you.

Thanks!

Okay URSAY, convince me Bitinstant won't fail me..........

So March 27th, I made 2 deposits to Bitinstant, at CVS via Moneygram/ZIPZAP, but as a week has passed, only ONE of TWO of my deposits have been sent to my account: of 1BbLYvXk63C6TqccTDiWrkZsoY6Gry36kf (not a MtGox account)

first 2d2be619-81b5-4e3a-a88f-0561570acd3c <-------this one proved successful
second 422de93e-cc32-45ad-b8aa-0880ab659f8e <-------this one did not go through, which is incorrectly stated as a MtGox destination,
despite having the correct address destination (MtGox coupon proved total fail)

It is now Thursday, April 4th 8 DAYS later, and I'm really hoping you guys can make this right, with the bitcoin value I intended at the time of deposit, yet I am still missing the 400 dollars (net 384.04) ordered to my BTC-e address.

I've been hanging in there for over a week...... when can I expect compliance?

So far so good, URSAY states BitInstant is willing to looking into reissuing a MtGox Coupon, due to expired one . Though I preferred this sent to my BTC-e, I'll take what I can get.

Thanks for the diligence, URSAY

SO JUST TO UPDATE. I'M STILL WAITING ON THE DEPOSIT FOLKS.. I'VE BEEN IN CONTACT, AND THOUGH THEY'VE INDICATED TO ME THEY'RE WORKING ON IT, NO ETA YET

I am also experiencing delays using Bitinstant to Mt.Gox.

I have a ticket open [GVI-UJELW-873] with someone named Rachel who may or may not have died in the past 2 hours due to her lack of responses. Might wanna go check on her...

Rachel is just fine I believe. She just needs some rest so she can continue working again tomorrow.

She was also helping train me so we can handle more volume and resolve your issues faster.

I just looked up your support ticket and it is indeed open. Cheesy
