Any BTC refunds to report today?

None here, refund requested on the 13th

Neither here, same day. This is where they supposed to be: http://blockchain.info/address/16yAasHr1TzLKnCpqfau78D5qFzGm8XqJg

I've been patient for this whole episode. It's growing thin. Ideas how we should pursue this? One more week (Feb 5th), and off we go to the FEDs?

Paid for multiple orders using 4 different cards over a period of time.

...it has been said before, and I'll say it again. Thank you, Dave, for giving it your all to sort out this mess.

Paid for multiple orders using 4 different cards over a period of time. So far some refunds have showed up (AMEX, Citi) and some haven't (BofA). I suspect that all have been refunded but BofA is holding on to the money for a few days of extra interest.

I have just been CC-refunded. bAsic and Transport option. I was #900 or so.
Thank you Tom and Dave.

I'd have happily waited until March or even September tho.

Ho well...

Just FYI, my refund appeared on my credit card's website as a pending transaction this morning.  I was order # 1167, placed on October 5th from btcfpga.com.

That nonreversability of bitcoin transactions sure is a great advantage for everyone.

Ultimately - yes.
That the trust equation between merchant and customer is inverted in favour of merchants is hardly some secret that we're just now saying "gosh.. didn't see those issues coming!"

In the short term it's disadvantageous primarily in a PR sense.
I'm old enough to remember some of the early skepticism around the idea that the average consumer would ever be willing to buy things 'over the internet'.
It wasn't entirely clear about who bore the responsibility for fraud and what level of consumer protections would be required to make people comfortable with e-commerce.  Ultimately - we pretty much got a one size fits all system - and pay for it whether we need it or not.

That some of us choose to sometimes risk using raw uninsured BTC transactions.... and that sometimes it will backfire... doesn't make a good argument against the property of irreversibility.

You can build a reversible payment network on top of an irreversible one - but not the other way around.

CC Refund received!  Thank you Dave... and thank you Tom, for in the end, doing the right thing in a difficult situation.

My refund was requested  on the 14th Jan and funds came through today.

I lost 5.9% ...  presumably due to exchange rate between AUD & USD.


Edit: I'm hopeful all BTC payers will be refunded too. It would be another nasty data-point against Bitcoin if the CC payers were refunded but not those paying in BTC.
As far as the order of refunding goes - I suspect CC refunds are a priority because in some cases there are fees levied upon the merchant if the buyer does a chargeback.  If these are somewhere around $30 - $50 a pop - then I'm sure Tom would be wanting to get the refunds happening before more chargebacks roll in.
