I have used BitInstant successfully several times in the past with no problem. I'm currently having problem and haven't received response to customer support email after 24 hours (except for the automated acknowledgment email). I don't know what to do. Any help is much appreciated.
On 2013-06-18 at 14:34 PDT (UTC-7) I received a payment confirmation email from ZipZap saying the following:
Amount to Pay: $143.95
Account Number: 245358619
Your ZipZap payment has been successfully processed and the merchant has been notified to complete your order. Please keep this email for your records.
Thank you for using ZipZap, the Global Cash Transaction Network.
After 24 hours I received no bitcoins in my wallet, and no communication from BitInstant. I then sent an email to BitInstant customer support, and I received the automated confirmation email, but it has been over 24 hours now and no response from BitInstant. It has been over 48 hours since I received the ZipZap payment confirmation and still no bitcoins in my wallet.
As I have done several times in the past, the address I specified for the bitcoins to be sent to is my bitcoin wallet address. As always, I:
- Have the most up-to-date bitcoin wallet software
- Copy and pasted my wallet address to avoid typos
- Made sure my wallet is synced up-to-date
I just now searched my wallet address on blockchain.info and there is no record of this recent transaction.
I am frustrated and don't know what to do. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
