Title: Problems accessing MyBitcoin account?
Post by: Rage on June 27, 2011, 04:58:59 AM
Is anyone else having problems accessing their MyBitcoin account? My username/password are being rejected and I haven't changed them and I'm sure the account hasn't been hacked. Also, I noticed that both fields are now asterisks like they'd be password masked. Anyone got a clue about this?

Thanks!
Rage

Yes, I am having the same problem. i sent them a couple emails with no response whatsoever. Fortunately I had very little in my account, but this is not a confidence-building experience.

It's working fine for me.  No problems logging in, and no change in my balance.

No problem here, but were you using the same username as on MtGox?

Yeah, it sucks. Causes my password manager to not recognize it. Need to lookup the password every time and fill it in manually. I hope they will fix this.

I was able to get in a few days ago, but now I'm locked out too!  This is troubling.  I was using a 16-character random password that was different from my Mt. Gox password.  I had a non-trivial amount of coins there.  :(

Same here. I have sent Mr Williams emails and messages. No response. I asked Bruce Wagner to stop promoting mybitcoin on his bitcoinme site and it seems he will. I just don't get why people fuck up like this.

Problem with mybitcoin is that they have no password recovery mechanism.

I'm leaving bad feedback in 48 hours if they don't reset my password and release my BTC. I urge anyone who has had positive or negative experience with them to leave feedback here:

It's nothing yet really, it could be useful some day however.

You can also look at that as a security feature

I was able to get in just now and transfer all my coins to a local wallet.  Whew, that was scary.

I am now getting an 'undeliverable' message to

I'm going to bump this just to remind everyone to stay clear of this website. If you have coins with them I would move them ASAP.

Rate them if you haven't already!

I DID rate them, but why have 3 people given negative ratings and yet the tally shows neutral ratings?
