Got email confirmation at 0130am est. Bitmain btc refund went thru to my wallet

I can also confirm that I also received a BTC transfer to make up for my Dec T17+ order (both the price drop and the TH reduction). It looks like I was a bit premature complaining yesterday, my apologies

Very good news. The bitmain refund process has been slow.

My refund was due from Sept 27 to paid Dec 25.

A lot of people have been helped by this thread.

I got 1189 credit faster
then the 140 btc refund

But I was entitled to those amounts.
I wrote many emails but it has worked out.

a bit of a rushed post as I am heading out the door...

Bitmain has completed my refund, I believe it has both refunds in one transaction, I have emailed for confirmation.
T17e from September order has been updated, finally Grin

Will edit post for better sense when back and/or when Bitmain reply on confirmation for refunds.

I believe many refunds will go out today as BTC dropped a bit in price Cheesy

I have yet to receive my refund as well. Like others, the credit on my account was removed quite a while back and I no longer have any sort of official recognition that Bitmain owes me money, which I find a little disconcerting.

My guess is that, being long BTC, Bitmain is also likely bullish BTC and is delaying the repayments as long as possible. It can't be overly complicated to issue refunds automatically, or at least have someone in finance batch issue them relatively easily, so this delay citing year end rollovers appears slightly disingenuous.

Hi,

@Philip Hope you both get well soon.

Wednesday business day in China had long time passed for today (Wednesday) and no refunds have been processed nor any emails have been received on my end.

The refund I am talking about is the $398 to BTC for the second batch of t17e that bitmain sold in sept 2019

Another email has been sent to Carol:

Code:

Hi Carol,

My refund has not been received yet.

Could you help expedite this?

I do hope this will not hinder our collaboration going forward.

I look forward to hearing from you

Regards.

Got to politely keep on them:

I just sent this email in response to my request for refund.

Quote from: PopoJeff

On 12/6/2019, you expected one month to process this refund. It is now 1/3/2020. I hope the process will be completed shortly.

Still waiting.........................................................

And waiting.........................................................

And waiting.........................................................

I retire in 2027. Hoping I get it by then

Hope your wife gets better.

yeah she is stable. antibiotics seem to be helping her.

I am also sick just not as bad as her.

Kind of puts all this into prospective. It is nice to play with the asics and the other gear, but your health of yourself and your family is pretty much priceless. It is far more important then this is.

I just woke up to cough and hack and etc. So I went to website as no-one is home and I can not sleep. I will visit the wife in hospital tomorrow.

My local hospital has 215 beds out of 284 filled with people with respiration infections. Nurses were telling me it is the worst they have ever been. In terms of flu/pneunomia etc.

I wish that they would send my final unit the s17 pro I would then be fully caught up and squared away with them.

I would consider buying a t17+ 58th due in feb if they would only square me up on the s17 pro.

Update s17 pro on its way from, malaysia due the 17 of jan.

this will have me fully settled with bitmain.

Coins are up over 8500

The diff will be under 8% Some time this evening.

So things are looking better for mining.

I won't be posting today as my wife had to go to the hospital she had the flu turn into pneumonia and is quite ill.

so i've got two 10% coupons, each one of $ 689 value. what do i do with it? i don't need more machines atm. can i sell the coupons? anybody interested?

You can sell them, but they don't worth much unfortunately, the average price for these coupons in China is about 15-20% of their face value, so each of these coupons are worth about a $100-$140.

Also there is a problem with these large value coupons, they only make sense for large orders due to the 10% rule, for example see below

Here is an attempt to buy 1*Antminer T17e - 53TH/s

1-Using a 140$ coupon

2-Using a 175$ coupon

Basically the same discount regardless of the coupon value, so a 689$ coupon is only worth it for an order that is above $3060, because for anything less than that, buying a 306$ coupon for 45-60$ would give you the same discount.

on the 6ht of Jan, I have my reminder pop-up that it has been 1 month exactly since I have been promised that I will have my refund of overpayment done by this date.

I have emailed to enquire about the refund as it has been 1 month and got this:

Hello ******,

Thanks for your consultation!

We have pushed our finance team to expedite the refund process, [b]but due to the new year settlement, there probably will be several days later,[/b] please wait patiently, thanks.

Please let us know if you have additional questions or concerns.

Best regards,

after that, my reply:

Dear Carol,

Thank you for your reply.

How long are several days, please?

Under 5 business days, yes?

I look forward to hearing from you

-------------------------------

Kind regards,

i have managed to get this:

Hello ******,

Thanks for your consultation!

Yes, you can check the refund status next Wednesday, thanks.

Please let us know if you have additional questions or concerns.

Best regards,
Carol
BITMAIN

and now waiting patiently to see as already I have been delayed 11 days (9 workings days) above the initial 1 month.
guess they are hoping BTC will rally more.

this is the 1st refund, waiting for the 2nd refund reminder to pop-up to email them again to see how long they will delay that one.

The day I asked for an update they said it was approved and pushed to finance team and to still wait patiently. The credit's been removed from my account balance and still waiting. They must be waiting for a bigger run still.

I got an email follow up about the 275 credit I thought I had due.

I was told I had been given a 1139 credit and a 114 refund which is true.
I was told this was all I was entitled to.

That the 275 credit I wanted for my newest purchase had been included in my 1139 credit.

I said I would check my records.

I reviewed every purchase I made from August to Dec.

I added subtracted and I have come to the conclusion. That the 1139 credit did include my 275 adjustment I still thought was due to me.

So at this time bitmain fully credited me all due to me

and fully refunded all due to me..

They owe me 1 s17 pro due to ship jan 11- 20.

all in all

all s9k have been good gear. 4
every t17 has been good gear. 2 or 3
every t17+ has been better then good. only 1
every s17 has been good gear. about 3 purchased
every s17 pro has been better then good. about 16 purchased by me and partners

the 2 17e's suck they use a lot of power. and were late.

As much as I don't like what bitmain does in general if they send my the final s17 pro in a week or 2 I would give them a 9 of 10 rating for the feb 2019 to feb 2020 time period.

Yeah, my best coupon back in the days was a 400 USD coupon for the Antminer S2,
which was my second gear after a S1 unit.

S1 + S2 combo was a perfect kit for home mining..

my best were 3 x 420 coupons good for up to 50% got them around March 2018, used them on S9i's

the 10% "of order" sucks - I miss the days where the coupon was good as long as it was not more than 50% of cost.
