I made two Dwolla payments to Mtgox through Bitinstant (old.bitinstant.com) yesterday and after 36hr's I haven't received anything. I didn't even receive an email receipt! Is anyone else in a similar situation? And I have made a support ticket (received a response too) but it must have gotten put on the back burner with all the cash deposit problems coming through. I emailed again so maybe that one will get some attention.

PM me here with your ticket reference and i'll take over the ticket and resolve it.


I PM'd you the ticket reference but just in case here it is again.

Support case #12722



About 52 hours now......hopefully I get my 2% fee back this is ridiculous! I made a support ticket hours after it happened, emailed multiple times, and PM'd several admins. I've used Bitinstant for a long time and I'm starting to get fed up, if you can push it through then refund MY MONEY if I can Dwolla you all that cash instantly it shouldn't take a rocket scientist to transfer it back to me.

Nowhere do we say it is okay for users to transfer us funds directly on Dwolla.  If you decided to do this regardless then you will need to be patient to see if we can provide you with a solution.

Do you know what your talking about because I'm not sure you do.

HERE'S WHAT I DID (TWICE!)

1. Went to old.bitinstant.com > (I found stuff on Google where people were told by customer service to go there to make Dwolla payments), if your not suppose to use Dwolla at all they WHY would you leave the option up?
2. Selected "Dwolla" as a payment option
3. Selected "MtGox" as the destination
4. Entered MtGox account number, amount to pay, and email
5. Proved I'm a human and clicked send funds

After all this I was brought to a Dwolla payment page where I put my pin in and paid directly out of my balance just like I had done many times before. The money left my account and was transferred directly to you guys. Then I was redirected back to Bitinstant and the javascript/confirmation wouldn't load both times. I didn't copy down the Quote or Event ID's because they should have been EMAILED to me (never got them) and I know I put my email in correctly. If you guys really can't take the information I provided in the support ticket (Dwolla transaction numbers, an email, a destination account #, and the transfer amount) and look up my Quote/Event ID's then your system needs a serious overhaul.

You have my money, you know where is was suppose to go, now complete the transaction because I'm really starting to lose my patience with Bitinstant. The information verifies the money is in Bitinstant's hands, now find the transactions manually send the funds to my MtGox account and this problem will be solved.


"Nowhere do we say it is okay for users to transfer us funds directly on Dwolla.  If you decided to do this regardless"

It says it right after you click send funds..........I'm very optimistic now customer service doesn't even know how their own service works  Shocked


And I'd be very careful justifying 54hr screw ups on your part by blaming customers, that's a slippery slope  Sad


"you will need to be patient to see if we can provide you with a solution."


That makes me even more optimistic. If you can't find a solution I guess you'll just pocket my cash?

Garreth,

That is my email above, which I actually took some time to write because I wanted to be fair.   I also want to be logical.

To be fair, you obviously have so many tickets URSAY was unable to recall the order information in detail I posted just a couple pages before the one where he says I provide no meaningful information.  That is not to mention the numerous emails (at first) to make sure everything is logged, and then a PM to him directly with the same information. So I get that you all are effing slammed.

But you keep leading us to believe it will be "just any second."   It's been 4/5 days now.  I could have already been refunded and bought btc from you again already.... now that it works.  

1. You have my MT GOX account number.  
2.  At least two transfers are logged on BI.com since I am registered.  There is no searching or finding the trxn like the guest transfers.
3.  You have Mt. Gox funds at your disposal.
4.  I don't care if you cancel, amend, refund and reissue, WHATEVER you need to do to make sure you Mt. Gox account sends money to my Mt. Gox account is really all we care about.
5.  I think when you say manually, we assume that means its a workaround and that means it will work.  it hasn't.  When i say manually I mean you literally log into Mt. Gox with you username and password and start transferring funds immediately.  MANUALLY.

Yes, i know it will mess up your accounting and the system issues must be addressed.  But you are underestimating the impact that some of these transactions are now having on our personal lives.  Your personal life is bitinstant.... so its different for you.  For us, bitinstant has BECOME our life for a week where we are spending literally hours a day......

you all could have handled, and still could handle this in a way that would have minimized damage.  you have done almost every single thing wrong so far, except show up here.  even though no one is getting helped, you are here.

The problem is that messing up our accounting endangers our ability to comply with regulations and thus risks the whole company - we have to ensure transactions are logged properly in case of audits or whatever.

For what it's worth here's an update:
We have a batch of 127 orders (out of 2106 zipzap payments) which are having issues, it seems most of them are failing due to invalid addresses caused by whitespace and after fixing the formatting some of these are executing UNLESS they have already auto-retried the maximum number of times, in which case they're failing again. To resolve this our dev team is working on a patch so that all these orders can be batch processed correctly.

The vast majority of outstanding delayed orders are now fixed, and it's only this last batch that's causing so much trouble, but we are all working to get it resolved.

Some customers have been told to wait on coinapult, it turns out that a large proportion of these orders are still failing due to the above mentioned issue with addresses, and this is something that coinapult can address on their end - customer support are now  being told to get valid addresses for all outstanding orders and verify them, with the aim being to batch process them no later than sunday.

gareth,

my order is one of those conapult errors..

I have given you the updated as well as the current bitcoin address i used, will they process again? or can you try and manually push it through one more time?..

I have sent payment my self to bitcoin address i used and it worked no problem.

PM me the details and i'll see if it's possible to fix your order without the patch (which should be live tomorrow)

I placed an order today and got an email saying "This email is to notify you that while received your payment successfully, we have encountered an error while trying to process your transaction at Jun 15 2013 22:58:39, meaning your order has currently failed." You're saying there's a patch coming tomorrow and my transaction will be automatically processed? Or do I need to give someone the details and have it manually fixed? Thanks in advance.

Be safe and log your issue at support.bitinstant.com

 I'm not sure if I'm missing something or just stupid. Is there a way to create a support ticket? The only thing I can find on the support page is a link to send an email.


Go to http://old.bitinstant.com/contact and select "I am having a problem with an order I submitted"......took me a while to figure out as well.
