1 orderd by VinceSaimos - took 5 weeks to arrive - working ok.

Point of information - it took Ken 5 days to ship after I paid, and I think 2.5 weeks in total to arrive. Because it's shipping to the UK and UK customs are slow as shit.

It's not "working ok" - it's performing like a champion! Over spec on the hash-rate and 100% stable

I've now ordered two gold rush cards which took ken 1 day to ship after I paid, they haven't arrived yet.

@cryptoconomist- still waiting  - "Two weeks ago on a Friday I spoke to him again and he  literally promised me he was going to ship my order on the following Monday, but haven't heard from him. Since then, when I log into my account, my initial order has now been moved to "refund" status and my new order to "cancelled" which contradicts what Ken and I discussed.  I wrote so many emails to him and to the Active Mining threads but my posts keep getting deleted"

First of all, I don't want to do business with bitpay because they are in bed with BFL.  Second, there are a lot of other things going on in the background that need to be taken care of, i.e datacenter, cash flow, lawyers, MSD, customer service, just to name a few.

Quoted for history. People actually pay a salary for this incompetence.

I was stupid and I was belive in company with no proof now I'm without money and chance to giving it back
I have to do something
thanks for reply
Leo, pm kslaughter tell him you have been waiting since Feb and that you require a refund. Or you can ask him to convert your order to a gold rush card that's currently in stock.

It's a complete mess and there are other people in the same situation.

If you're not happy you can join the class action (link on page 1)

And contact the Missouri securities division ( imgur link on page 1) to assist in their investigation into ken VMC and his mining venture active mining.

If you need any further help in understanding any of this then just shout..

Have any Fast Hash One Gold Rush units been shipped? Any information posted on these?


posted 5 mins before your post:



24 Hour Sale on our Gold Rush boards $200 off with this voucher K0JLPCYB

Limited to the first 25 boards sold.


No one I know of has ordered one yet.

33 Items in stock as of now.

I would be very careful throwing your money at VMC.

Going off the last batch, it will take ages for them to process payment, and about 1 month to post. Then there's a risk that the cards will be used cards in their mining farm with DOA problems. (abut 60% DOA rate)

Then there's the shitfight in getting a replacement or refund...

No one knows if they are in stock or not (there's no pics of units or assembly line) - this could just be a money raising exercise to fund their data center and you will get shaftd like everyone else.

If ken wants to provide pics and info about the conception of these boards then that will serve him well.

curious how or why it took almost two months for the cheque to arrive? he should really be sending via registered mail for tracking and verification of delivery


For the same reason the reviewer at CoinDesk got a bunch of bad checks:  http://www.coindesk.com/mining-hardware-companies-miners-roundup/

TL;DR after CoinDesk guy asked for a refund:
Quote
The cheque was sent back with an accompanying letter clearly stating the correct spelling of the recipient’s name, just to be sure.

However, mid-March a new cheque arrived containing the same misspelling and, this time, it wasn’t signed either. At this point I started to wonder whether these errors were being done on purpose to delay the refund.

Declining my request to have the funds wired to my bank account instead, VMC will now be sending a third cheque (after receiving the unsigned one back from me).

So, maybe with some luck, some four to five months after applying for a refund, I will actually get my money back.

Update [April 30 2014]
The refund check (Now cancelled)Sent in Feb turned up today.
 postmark confirms it was sent in Feb and the check number confirms with what ken said it was on pm. So I can't blame him for this delay. The replacement check should arrive soon.

If ken could have just communicated this postage it would have avoided a whole rigmarole for the past 2 months.
In any case I unreservedly apologise to ken in light of this check arriving when all the evidence was pointing to a scam.

There is hope for ken after all... When I get my money

You are going to have a whole bunch of posts to edit....
Once the refund materialises and is cashed... With pleasure
