Title: Oh -oh... Bitinstant transaction gone bad... Post by: Harry7139 on June 20, 2013, 03:46:41 PM Ordered BC from Bitinstant yesterday AM, Moneygram - Zipzap method... Zipzap = Perfect / Bitinstant = FAIL - Bitinstant sent me an email saying that they received my payment but my transaction failed... imagine that...lol... Oh well...tried contacting customer service through e-mail (the only way you can contact them) and guess what? No reply... and still no BC.... .. I know I'm just a Newb and you guys have had far more experience and larger transactions than I will ever have... In fact, I shouldn't even be complaining... I should have known I would have had better luck just throwing my cash under a weed eater..lol.. As for myself... live and learn I guess.. I won't be here crying and moaning this incident every other day...in the end it's my own fault for trusting them... Needless to say I will NOT be using Bitinstant again and I would recommend the same to you.. I'm just trying to save someone else who may be considering Bitinstant...that's all :) If you really want to throw your cash away just send it to me instead.. I will at least send you an email as to why I screwed you..:)
Thanks ! :) Great day to all! :) Title: Re: Oh -oh... Bitinstant transaction gone bad... Post by: eldongallagh25 on June 21, 2013, 12:17:56 AM Bitinstant is having issues at the moment. There is a separate thread here in the newbie section dedicated to assistance for any issues. Keep us posted on what happens. I was looking to buy a few coins through them, but after recent events I'm having second thoughts.

Wright on June 21, 2013, 12:51:26 AM I came to comment on "Oh-oh". It's "Uh-oh", or comically "Ruh roh" if you want your audience to read your text in Scooby Doo's voice. Get it right, internet.
fake edit: I always wondered why they didn't call it BitLater. Title: Re: Oh -oh... Bitinstant transaction gone bad... Post by: Harry7139 on June 21, 2013, 04:57:05 PM Thanks for the grammar correction...lol... you are right..:) Anyway, I don't want to make a big deal out of this... it is what it is... At this point all I can do is wait and see if the transaction completes and hope that they honor my paltry little "test purchase" of 63.95.. I'm ok with the delay... I am also not stupid enough to plunk down a thousand dollars on my first try with a new exchange.... so it's not a big money issue.. I think it's more leaving me in limbo due to the lack of response from customer service.. I will wait a few more days before I post the details of my transaction on every single web site imaginable that has anything to do with BTC exchange.. I am retired, have nothing else to do all day, so that will be my new job.. I will say that Bitinstant got one heck of a deal from me though.. I mean, where in the world can you have extremely negative feedback agressively posted on literally every website that could bring you a potential new customer for only 63.95? THAT, my friends, is the deal of the day:)
Thanks for your replies... and everyone have a wonderful day!! PS: FYI - I did see the "Bitinstant Complaint Thread" and posted there accordingly... but much like my bitcoins.. it never appeared...(Probably because the last post there was over a year ago...) so I posted here.. Sorry.. I am new here and really trying to follow the rules ... If I indeed posted in the wrong category you have my sincerest apology :) Title: Re: Oh -oh... Bitinstant transaction gone bad...

Sure it did: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=128314.msg2531911#msg2531911 I purchased BC from Bitinstant yesterday morning.... I used Moneygram and have a syncronized on line wallet (Multibit) with a wallet address that I verified 3 times before requesting so I know that it's correct.. You sent me an email saying you have been paid however my transaction failed and has not been processed... no reason... and still no BC.. Fortunately I ordered a small amount, as I have read previous bad reviews about Bitinstant. I completely understand as to acceptable delays.... I don't like to be left hanging... I am hoping someone here can address my issues and help me complete this transaction restoring my faith back in Bitinstant:)... I will be happy to provide any further information needed should someone at least reply to this post... Thanks:) A Great Day to All ! :) And BitInstant responded as well: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=128314.msg2532050#msg2532050 I purchased BC from Bitinstant yesterday morning....
