When did you email them, was your ordernumber in that email? You can only update orders for more than 1 jalapeno into a little single btw.

Yeah.  I think you have to make it as easy for them as possible.  Include your order number, date you ordered, etc...  Jody from BFL sometimes takes a while to reply, but she's always come through for me eventually.

I upgraded my order for 2 Jalapenos. I gave them all the info about my original order, and also specified my billing preferences. It took them about a week to respond. Then after I paid it took another day or two for them to confirm the order.

First off, you can't call them. Second, give them 7-10 days to respond before you send more emails. Otherwise you are just loading them down with more crap to sort through. Don't worry about being in a rush, we won't see an asic from them for at least a month...probably 2. Which would put us at about 2013. Happy New Years!

I think they have gotten better recently... around 2 day response time.

The way I understand their convoluted policies, if you do this you will be moved to the back of the bus, as little singe orders are being processed last.

I was assured my original order date would remain valid.  This is confirmed in my new order.  New mini SC orders will be processed last.

I have upgraded from jalapeno to little single, Josh said I would keep my line since it's just an upgrade.
Also, it did took some time for them to respond, I would say like 5 days.
They are probably just really slammed with all emails asking when it is going to come out  ;D

You pull that outta ur ass? Cuz I upgraded while maintaining my order number and place in line, and everyone else I've heard of has said the same thing.

Has anyone tried to upgrade a Jalapeno to an SC Single Upgrade? I emailed requesting that, but I think someone must have misunderstood me because they sent me an invoice to upgrade to a Little Single.

Although BFL_Josh trolls these forums from time to time  ;D ... you would have a better chance to get an (faster) answer by contacting their support email address or ask the question in the company's support forums.

1 jalapeno to 1 Single SC, is not an option, Quote: "Due to popular demand we will amend our upgrade policy to allow you to upgrade 1-4 Jalapenos for a 30 GH/s Little Single and still keep your place in line."  etc.

I have upgraded 2 japalenos to one little single SC. It took a while when they confirmed the deal, but it has been done finaly.
