There's a lot to process it seems like.

I was waiting for a week for my first order to process and now a couple days with charlie and the support team for my second order. Give em some time and they'll get back to you.

Don't expect to get it right away on the weekends or within 24 hrs!. My experience and others I know here will say that the weekends are a little slower.. as they've processed all but one failed orders for us mon-fri. Good luck to everyone Wink

Hi Bitinstant,

I am having trouble with the second of my two transactions today. Only one went through according to blockchain.info.

This one here worked:

I don't know if it got stuck in some filter for being too similar(same destination address maybe) or moneygram couldn't process the two transactions to the same account?

Either way, I'm hoping for the coins to be released ASAP. Please update me with the status. Many Thanks.

Yup, its in the fraud filter. Processing it thru now

Haven't received the coins yet. Just wanted to check in on the time-table for processing. Mildly urgent that I get the coins in the next 24 hrs, would greatly appreciate it if you make sure it goes through. (Still not on blockchain.info or at the destination).

Happy Saturday everyone!



Hey All,

Please ignore this guy below.

I just need to point something out, like I do every day:

1- If your order fails, we always refund not only the fees but also the price difference if BTC went up.



PM'd you Yankee now that you say it is necessary in order to get our refund and BTC price match for time of purchase.

Got it!

I'm still waiting for Charlie to correct a transaction from 9 days ago. I've sent 4 PM's only one response saying it would be done in a couple hours, that was 8 days ago. I've been in contact with Rachael by email who always email me back right away with apologies and statements that Charlie will do it today.

I believe this was processed, no? Can you send me your Order ID again? For some reason I can't see messages older then a few days.

I have a Bitinstant Dwolla order that failed verification again...

Order ID is: c176f6c3-df7b-491a-baf1-251ca6ea67ca

Thanks in advance for your help.

Processed!

Hey,

You did Bitcoin-to-email, and we emailed it to your @gmail.com address.

Have you checked your gmail account?

I placed my order on thursday and still no BTC. This is stupid.

 I have used Bitinstant  and Coinapult to email bitcoins to a bitcoin address once before with no problems.  This time, when I tried to send the bitcoins via Coinapult, there was an error sending the coins.  Next, I was informed that to retrieve the bitcoins I had to enter my email address and the Top Secret Location.  As I had no idea what that top secret location was and there is no mention of it on the coinapult website, the bitinstant web site or google and I was/am still at a loss.  This was over $470 that has gone missing without a trace.  It is friday night so my guess is no one will be around til Monday to answer any questions.  There seems to be an unusually large amount of problems here for a company that deals with liquid assets.  I am somewhat reassured that a lot of angry people edit their posts to resolved.  Please contact me ASAP if anyone from one of these two companies reads this.  I needed to get those bitcoins through right away.

Some details regarding the transaction:

The funds were there until the errors sending to the Bitcoin addresses.  I tried a second BC address as I thought maybe that was the problem but that one failed too. What happened? Where are the Bitcoins?

:  I have received an email from Seth this afternoon apologizing for the delay and asking for some additional information.  I have supplied the info and am waiting for his reply as to what happened to the Bitcoins.  I will Update when I hear any news.

He just refunded me the difference on my order from over a week ago. Just do honest math and let him know how much is lost.

I could imagine it would be difficult and time consuming to go through and find out which orders he needs to be refund.

Thank you Yankee for getting this straightened out.

Hey, processed!

Hey All,

I just need to point something out, like I do every day:

1- If your order fails, we always refund not only the fees but also the price difference if BTC went up.


This is a flat out lie.  I've had several orders fail due to low reserves, demanded my fees back and got nothing every time. I didn't even consider asking for the BTC price difference, although I made it quite clear that I was pissed off due to price move during the outage. 

Instead I got a "most people understand how our service works," implying it was my fault that the order failed, when I said you should at least warn people about not being able to fill orders.

Hey,

It's not a lie, however I do admit that sometimes we overlook orders that have processed after the window.

We have customers emailing us from orders from weeks ago that they need refunded.

If you have Order ID's that need to be refunded, PLEASE send me a PM RIGHT AWAY

Thanks

I need help. I purchased $490 worth of bitcoin from bit instant on Monday and received it. I bought an additional $490 on Tuesday and never received it. On Wednesday I wrote to technical support and got a response from Rachel stating that my issue had been turned over to tech support and I would have my money later that day. It is Thursday evening and I haven't received anything, I wrote another e-mail earlier today and didn't get a response. I am very annoyed considering I paid a premium to have my bit coins as soon as possible and going on 4 days later I have nothing. Also, I assume that when this does eventually get resolved I will receive the full original amount and not the current market price, correct? Thanks for any help you can provide. -Doc         OrderID: e2acc0cf-6722-4933-8287-d6f2981a3d5e

I have an unconfirmed transaction in the amount that I originally purchased as of earlier this morning. This forum is the way to get things done through bitinstant. Thanks Charlie.

EDIT: I have been given a generous refund for not only the fees on my messed up orders, but also BTC price difference.  Consider me very impressed.
