My Gox to Dwolla transactions have all been processed within an hour for the last month or so.

Would I get some sort of premium if I traded Dwolla for Gox?  *scratch*

They have 'anything' on their website guaranteeing that it takes an hour after you place an order.  I'm pretty sure that's what 'Guaranteed' means.  If guaranteed doesn't mean that it's guaranteed, then it shouldn't be guaranteed.  Make sense?  Do I need to elaborate?  Post some screenshots?

Your quotes?  That is supposed to be relevant..... how?   I placed an order.  After I placed an order, I received a guarantee.  If the funds weren't going to be ready in that typical hour, then I shouldn't have received a guarantee after placing my order.

My resistance to supply information?  Good lord, what the hell are you talking about?  I supplied all the information necessary.  I think.  Right?  If I didn't, wouldn't support mail me and ask me for some more information?  

I wanted Charlie to email me?  I wanted to get a refund.  Mailing someone on these forums is not an email.  Whether or not I was "upset" is irrelevant, unless you're suggesting that it would be so difficult for him to log on to a BitInstant account that it would result in hours of delay, rather than messaging me on these forums.  Is that what you're suggesting?

He mailed me on these boards several times.  It has nothing to do with the emails.   Please, stop talking out of your ass.

And here I was going to make some speech about how we'd finally reached an agreement I was happy with and that it's nice that the head of the company took the time to email me... then I have to read this drek.   So, then, in short:  I was refunded my original purchase amount and compensated for an exchange price difference, which was generous of them to do as it wouldn't have even been something I'd request in BBB mediation.   I would advise other people that have delayed transactions not to worry about it, but I would say to be diligent about mailing support (especially if you want a refund, rather than to complete the transaction).

I was going to post some more, but the 21after2 asskissing threw me off way too much.  (and I would call you out on some of your false assumptions, except for the fact that a third party is involved and we have already come to an understanding)

... and I did update the BBB with a glowing review of how the problem was handled.    Guess that's the last edit.

Because you can use a credit card or paypal.

I think?

Not really sure what you're saying.

Although I don't know why the OP doesn't just transfer the liqpay to btc-e... bitcoins are usually the cheapest there, anyway.

I sent a PM requesting all further communication occur directly from a Bitinstant email address.  

I sent this email:

From: xxxx@hotmail.com
To: xxxx@bitinstant.ladesk.com; xxxx@bitinstant.com; xxxx@hotmail.com
Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2013 13:21:15 -0600

got a response here:

To: xxxx@hotmail.com
Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2013 14:52:09 -0800
From: xxxx@bitinstant.ladesk.com

sent this email in reply:

From: xxxx@hotmail.com
To: xxxx@bitinstant.ladesk.com; xxxx@hotmail.com
Date: Thu, 24 Jan 2013 17:13:02 -0600

several hours later, after not receiving a response, I then sent another email:

From: xxxx@hotmail.com
To: xxxx@hotmail.com; xxxx@bitinstant.ladesk.com; xxxx@bitinstant.com      (trying to cover as many bases as possible, here)
Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2013 03:27:14 -0600

This morning, I got a response from you:

To: xxxx@hotmail.com
Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2013 06:38:09 -0800
From: xxxx@bitinstant.ladesk.com

Indicating that you had sent me an email 15 hours ago and were still awaiting my reply.  My reply to that message is here:

From: xxxx@hotmail.com
To: xxxx@bitinstant.ladesk.com; xxxx@bitinstant.com; xxxx@hotmail.com
Date: Fri, 25 Jan 2013 09:57:10 -0600

I wanted to avoid discussing it on here, but I felt a response was needed in regard to the insinuation that I was the one causing delays by ignoring your recompense offer.

From now on I won't talk about the issue here.  Again, I'd like all further correspondence to be conducted via an entity recognizeable as BitInstant rather than these forums.

One last thing to some other folks on this thread,  I spoke to the BBB mediator and she said that it usually takes a couple of complaints for a company to get listed on the BBB Website (assuming that the first few complaints are resolved in a positive manner).  I was told I was the first person to file a BBB complaint against BitInstant. 

Besides Dwolla, liqpay is leaps and bounds ahead of any other of these funky currency exchangers i've tried (that are accepted at bitcoin exchanges)

are these negros still for sale?   some acquaintance wants to buy in bulk

Fresh greens from the sea...

void CWallet::ResendWalletTransactions()
{
    // Do this infrequently and randomly to avoid giving away
    // that these are our transactions.
    static int64 nNextTime;
    if (GetTime() < nNextTime)
        return;
    bool fFirst = (nNextTime == 0);
    nNextTime = GetTime() + GetRand(30 * 60);
    if (fFirst)
        return;

    // Only do it if there's been a new block since last time
    static int64 nLastTime;
    if (nTimeBestReceived < nLastTime)
        return;
    nLastTime = GetTime();

    // Rebroadcast any of our txes that aren't in a block yet
    printf("ResendWalletTransactions()\n");
    {
        LOCK(cs_wallet);
        // Sort them in chronological order
        multimap<unsigned int, CWalletTx*> mapSorted;
        BOOST_FOREACH(PAIRTYPE(const uint256, CWalletTx)& item, mapWallet)
        {
            CWalletTx& wtx = item.second;
            // Don't rebroadcast until it's had plenty of time that
            // it should have gotten in already by now.
            if (nTimeBestReceived - (int64)wtx.nTimeReceived > 5 * 60)
                mapSorted.insert(make_pair(wtx.nTimeReceived, &wtx));
        }
        BOOST_FOREACH(PAIRTYPE(const unsigned int, CWalletTx*)& item, mapSorted)
        {
            CWalletTx& wtx = *item.second;
            wtx.RelayWalletTransaction();
        }
    }
}

hmm, I've always put 'keys=0' in my config file, to stop wallet bloat

I've sent everything thru the BitInstant support email address.  I've still yet to receive a refund, approx. 28 hrs later.  I shot off an email to the NY BBB and plan on ringing them when they finally open.  10 EST til 4 EST?  The Tyler branch is open 8 hours..

i'd do it if it wasnt prop

I'd get 5830's instead of 5850's as well.  Your 5830's wouldn't depreciate in value as much + every single one I've ever had can run at at least 750 core @ 0.95v.  

You can save even more wattage by totally removing their fans.  If your ambient temperature is 74o or less they won't overheat.  Keep the heatsink on, ofc (but not the shroud).

I don't think some random 400-600 watt PSU could power 4 5850's, either.  Even with your OS on a USB stick.  It could (*600w), however, power four 5830's at 0.95v without fans!

(I just checked, mine is pulling 37 amps for 250mhash/s, 750/135)

What is Tangible Crypto?   Better than bank wire transfers?   

Yes, this happens if you enter the site through something like, say, a Google search link that has the site in a diff language... it then sets that as your default..

As some other ppl said, you can change it w/ the flag in the upper right hand corner...  and it definitely is a glitch.

yeah, those bots would be working overtime with all the arbitrage on mtgox swings

I sent 2 emails to support and didn't receive a response until 11:30am central, on a transaction that was 'guaranteed' to be completed in one hour.  You'd think they'd have someone around 24/7, throwing around guarantees like that

I tried calling the BBB to expedite (at around 3:20pm central) but they close at 4 EST, lol.

I am waiting on a refund now, for several hours.

as long as that is done, it isn't bad to be listed on BBB anyway, and there would be 1 out of 1 resolved complaints

(i've gone thru the BBB four times and only had one complaint stick.   you have to make sure to keep track of everything, record phone conversations, all emails, etc.  they are 99% for business, that is where nearly all their donations come from anyway)

(ed one last time:  it would be easy just to change this wording.  make it our guaranteed delivery time or your transaction fee back or somesuch.. dont tell me expected delivery time is in 4 minutes and guaranteed is in one hour then ignore 2 support emails for 7 hours).  i suppose in some cases it could be the fault of the exchange, but in my case it wasn't

The whole 25 BTC is distributed fairly among users that helped solving that block, based on the amount of shares the user contributed with.

that's all I could see in regard to payment... is it prop??

I filed a complaint with the BBB, so hopefully BitInstant will be a listed business on there sometime in the next 24hrs.

Complete with original order web page showing guaranteed delivery in 1hr, as well as correspondence (two emails to support, one 1hr15m after transaction, another 3hrs after).

If I don't receive a response in another several hours, I'll file a fraud complaint with the government (IC3).

update:  at 5:30GMT, about 12 or 13 minutes after this post, I received an email from support saying that my transaction was processed.  however, I asked for a full refund as they were unable to fulfill their one hour obligation.

5:35GMT - replied to the support letter, informing them that I had asked for a full refund.  asked how to return the amount that was issued and receive my refund for the full amt, due to their inability to meet their obligation. 

liqpay.com

it was super quick

(ed: well, if you have money in your paypal account, it's near instant.  i think if you use bank, it might take a few days the first time, then quicker after that)
