They aren't perfect and depend on btc exchanges API's, so issues may appear sometimes. Have patience and they will solve your issue quite fast. Make sure you keep a balance on the exchanges, if you do arbitrage between them, so you can mitigate any bitinstant delays.

I'm sure you'll see 8.6 again.

I've not used Bitinstant; that's really not too shabby for posting to your account, I think.
