Back a few weeks ago, I received an email saying my exchange rate was at around 180$USD/BTC at the time of my quote, and that my order (once it had completed a few days after my initial transaction) was completed correctly.

In my order, after fees, it said I would be receiving 96.01$ worth of BTC (104$ total paid. 0.05$ kiosk fee, 3.95$ fee to zipzap, leaving a 100$ payment to Bitinstant, paying 3.99% to fees for transaction type of zipzap>bitcoin address).

So by my math, I should have received approximately .5333889 BTC (96.01$/(180$/BTC))

I received .39751218 BTC, and I don't see anywhere on the BitInstant site (which was linked to me in the email) where another 20% in fees would come from, and .1BTC would be quite generous for a miner's fee.

I asked on here on the forum thread and sent a support email asking about this, and I haven't heard back anything about this beyond the automated response from the support email. Can I at least be told where my logic fails me if I did in fact receive the correct amount?

I received an email from RC BitInstant, however they have not fixed my execution price and say that it is FEES for our service.
It was an incorrect execution price and it was my understanding that it would be fixed. On top of that, I still wish for a refund of the fees
as well, it makes no sense to pay for a service fee when you don't receive the service. The service fee was for receiving my BTC at the correct rate
and promptly, which BitInstant failed on both accounts. I want the money I didn't receive from the execution price delay as well as a refund of the fees.

I had a similar email. I was told that at the time my order was submitted, the price was around 180$/BTC.
In my order, after fees, it said I would be receiving 96.01$ worth of BTC (104$ total paid. 0.05$ kiosk fee, 3.95$ fee to zipzap, leaving a 100$ payment to Bitinstant, paying 3.99% to fees for transaction type of zipzap>bitcoin address).

I'm on the 4/8 list, and just received .3975 BTC when I should have received around .60 BTC at the rate it was at when I made the transaction.

From my post about an hour ago:
Paying $96.01 USD (after bitinstant fee) at 21:00 GMT on 4/8/13 when the price was around $160/BTC should have gotten me around 0.6 BTC

I'm having my transaction stuck at "MTGox Order Loading" as well for a cash to address.
