Topic: SCAM ALERT: BITCOIN INDIA - page 2. (Read 3391 times)

I was looking forward to opening an account with the exchange but I am not anymore. Its always a good idea to check the forum talks before investing in some exchange/coin that is not yet popular... Thanks for sharing..

Right on. You live n u learn.....

Another awful MAJOR MESS UP of theirs is that they give you wallet addresses of different cyptos in your account. You think you are in control of them esp. for 3rd party transfers. But lol.

For example, countless times have I tried to send ETH from my primary secure wallet to the address they provide me to store ETH in (in my bitcoin-india.org account). Upon checking blockchain ledger online to view the newly made txn, I see no records whatsoever! Upon contacting their customer "support", 10-90 minutes thereafter, some random address stores it in my bitcoin-india.org wallet. Same goes for outgoing transactions. Same goes for XRP, BTC and who knows which other cryptos that they offer. This is just ridiculous!

Too many valuable resources I have lost while dealing with this crappy service. Namely time and peace of mind.
Eff em' henceforth.

BTC HoDl Strong! BTC

Just use the top exchanges and don't fall for scams.

I always knew this things will happen especially with the unknown so called exchanges that come up in recent time and will vanish taking the money or will suspend the account when the dip takes place and when you actually want to buy it you cannot buy it because they will not transfer money etc. Also their company name includes software and they are into bitcoin business? 

Namaskar fellow Indians,

I can vouch for this. Have been using bitcoin-india.org as a convenient way to accumulate, although they sell at a premium over international exchanges. I started 2 months back and have learned that it is feasible to buy cheap BTCs from LBC and purchase alt coins from bittrex or poloniex. Anyone just starting could learn from this shared experience.

Back to the matter at hand. "bitcoin-india.org" has always had horrible customer support, buggy interface. But they crossed all limits on the 15th of Sept. During the recent deep market correction (on 15th sept) their buy prices were sky high. I told them so and some issue started with their prices. They ended up shutting down services for over 24 hours. Upon revival the next evening, my account was suspended without explanation. Several attempts to contact them via various channels of communication seemed futile. The next day, they sent me a one sentenced apology email and revived back my account. Needless to say, I have withdrawn all cash and coins from there and transferred to secure wallets.
Going to get legal advice but dont think anything can happen as sector not regulated yet, although they are registered as "BITCOIN INDIA SOFTWARE SERVICES PRIVATE LIMITED"  

Its my first post on btalk. dont think i can upload images. so here's a link to it instead. imgur(dot)com/tOf8vLY
The only edit on this is me removing my profile pic next to the battery level indicator.

Go ahead and read all their stellar reviews on facebook. link: facebook(dot)com/pg/Bitcoin(dot)India(dot)Org/reviews/?ref=page_internal

Stay safe, not scared.

And above all, HoDl Strong!!!

Well i second that.. As well known sites dont have any issues till date. There are yes many exchanges, and you cannot rely on everyone of them.

Kindly share the proof if you have any because firstly this site is hardly known to anyone as people would only like to trade with reputed exchanges which have a trustworthiness. One should also be very careful because now days many new exchanges are coming up and some of this may be scam and will not refund the money back.

Do you have any proof to show? or any news link or somewhere? i have in LBC and its fine for me..

https://bitcoin-india.org here is the site link

What is the site of link also where do they exists in India and how about Police that didnt filed a case on them?

Bitcoin India has suspended accounts of many users and users are unable to get their money back.
There is no positive reply from customer care.
Those who have accounts there, please withdraw their money asap.

Be Safe.
