They must be feeling some pressure now that Cointerra has lowered pricing for the 1.6 th system to $3400 for multiple units.  And Bitmain went to $2600 for 1Th.  Both with immediate shipping.   And Spondoolies sp10 at bat.

This is the 10th business day and i still don't have my refund.

KNC PLEASE STOP HOLDING MY MONEY AND SEND ME MY ENTITLED REFUND!!!

KNC does not read this forum,

Get off your lazy ass and pick up a phone and call them and stop yelling about your refund here.

Geez

Really?

f you are still waiting on a refund from a neptune i advice you call KnC i just spoke with Anna and a request has been put in for my refund to be made in bitcoin. Don 't be scared to yell at the poor wee Scandinavian girl, she works for the devil, oh and don't let her talk over you as that is what she will try and do.

I just had a 5 min call with Anna i think and she was explaining me that the Financial Department has to fill a lot of documents for the refund since my order was already reported to their tax authorities and also that they have to check my order payment even if after she asked my order number she reported back that i paid in November with bitcoins. I don't know what's there to check more...I did ask about bitcoins refund but she told me that it won't speed up the process except that i win the 3 days that it takes to receive my wire transfer. She also told me that the refund might take longer than 10 business days, but i will get my refund eventually. Back to the waiting line i guess. Refund asked on 11 April. Let's see how long will it take them...

I sometimes fantasize about going with the most vocal people here together as a group to the KNC offices in Stockholm to confront them. Even stage a strike in front of their offices with banners and megaphones.
I bet then they will notice us and start acting accordingly.
I have been waiting for my refund since 4th April.

I was thinking of doing something similar with "Gox where is our money?" guy, but i just don't have the spare time. I WILL gladly join and contribute to any legal route that someone might take. If i had the spare time right now I could be on a plane to Sweden to fill a report with the police department.

@Vagnavs read the above quote. I did call them!

I think that i managed to get my e-mail blocked by knc support system after flooding them with e-mail asking them when will they refund me.

I know that they are reading this and i do know that they are holding my refund in order to not get into my Group Buy, but that would be very stupid since sending the money today i will only get them on friday or next week. Don't worry knc i can make plenty of free emails to start flooding you with the same question:

WHEN WILL YOU REFUND ME???

Have you tried calling? I'm assuming the answer is yes and if so what have they said.. Also BTC or Fiat?

There is now lot's of proof that KNC do Micky Mouse engineering
Got to x-post this from knc forum, in case you think I was being harsh in comment above:

As requested here are pictures of the "solution" from KnC how to hold the heatsinks in place on the ASIC boards. They used a simple wire which was going around the heatsink and through the holes of the ASIC board and tied on the bottom. The heatsinks moved a bit during the transport, but not to the extent that the boards got damaged, at least no parts were falling out of the boxes. I haven't had time to test the boards yet, but will do later this week.

MacGyver's favourite - a bit of tying wire!

I hope KNC also ship a free penknife with Neptune Cheesy

That's a new low. Ship something that you say it's worth $10k and hold things in place with wires...

you'll note it's not actually holding it in place, the heatsink has slipped.

STOCKHOLM, DATE, 2014 — KnCMiner (https://www.kncminer.com/), the most trusted brand in Bitcoin mining


While I'm at it - they have some cheek making that claim after the shipping disaster known as Franken-Pile-O-Crapper. I think the bigger liars in Bitcoin mining is more appropriate (think datorhall).

There is now lot's of proof that KNC do Micky Mouse engineering and have continued to ship faulty goods. While the die0 problems are all but forgotten, let's not forget it entirely. That way, you won't be too surprised when knc fuck up Neptune. The only good rigs they shipped were Nov Jupiters and that is because they had over 7 weeks to perfect it.

I pity the customer humiliation batch customers, because it's new tech and KNC can easily fuck it up too. Those who get the KNC freebie rig will probably find it brings their total hashrate up to 4.4TH - 1.3TH customer humiliation batch rig and 3.1TH freebie rig 3 months later  Grin

self-serving propoganda - but perhaps they are going by dogie's review thread (which is in itself, self-serving propoganda) - no offence to dogie but he really should be considering recent events more, in the case of all manufacturers.

ADD: Note of caution to 'loyal' KnC customers - please make sure your phase is safe for and extra 4.2kw if you are mining this at home.

Hello,

It usually takes about 10 business days for finance department to issue refund.
However, it might take a bit longer in case if finance department is loaded with work.
Please do not hesitate in contacting us if you have further questions.

Poor Natalie. She is like a robot. I got the same mail 4 times now.

I think i will just ask them until they refund me.

STOCKHOLM, DATE, 2014 — KnCMiner (https://www.kncminer.com/), the most trusted brand in Bitcoin mining, announced today that it will give every current customer who has an outstanding order for a machine from its Neptune line’s first two batches a free Neptune from its upcoming “third batch” of Neptunes. This represents a $5,995 value and, perhaps more importantly, will provide KnCMiner’s most loyal customers with twice the hashing power they would have otherwise received with just one of these machines.

and for fear of being called a shill and a troll, I won't post that Spondoolies group buy (~6.5TH/s) is still $1k cheaper than the

I bet you, they will release the funds quite soon after the sp30 groupbuy has ended. If anyone claims to receive the refund within an acceptable timeframe, everyone of their "customers" will desert them.

The Neptune isn´t too impressive, as it will probably not get better power efficiency than 0,8W/GH and in a 4 u formfactor.

Ha ha ha. Many people placed an order with KNC because they had a good track record last year.

With Frankenjup, KNC have destroyed their reputation. Now they are handing out free mining gear, after probably 95% of people have refunded. So what is that - 10 free rigs? Cheap bastards AND reputation in tatters.

http://www.myinstants.com/instant/the-simpsons-nelsons-ha-ha/

P.S. Don't forget KNC have said they are hoping to set up 2 more datorhall's, pretty much as soon as they can. So you'd have to assume they are waiting for Neptune to be ready and then they will build them asap. So those who don't think the difficulty will sky-rocket are fooling themselves. And those who get later batch Neptunes are screwed, regardless if you get one or two. I'd say things are getting desperate at KFC when they are offering free hardware.

I hate to be the one to break the news to you fellas, but bitcoin @ $1 is just as useful as bitcoin @ $400.

True for small transactions, however...

With Bitcoin at $1 it would be impossible to transfer $22 million in value, because there aren't enough bitcoins. The higher value bitcoin is in fiat, the larger a transaction can be.

Another example: a wealthy person wants to store $22 million or more of their wealth in bitcoin. Couldn't be done with bitcoin at $1. The higher value bitcoin is in fiat, the more wealth we can store in bitcoin.

Same thing for 22 million people each trying to store $1 of wealth in bitcoin.  Or 220 million people trying to store $0.1 of wealth in bitcoin, etc. Couldn't be done with bitcoin at $1.

The utility of bitcoin to the world as a whole rises as its fiat value per coin rises.  We need bitcoins to be worth a lot (say $100k to $1m+) per coin to be useful to the world's population because there are so few coins (only ever 21 million will be made).

well stated. many bitcoiners do not understand this and think that people who talk about btc price rising are greedy. adoption rate and price are connected.
