Promptly reported to mods who seem to be very fast in dealing with them - like within minutes they're gone  I still remember our old moderator "frodocooper", I hardly had to report any of these spam/scam posts, he was more of a bot than human, but ya, it's great that this link got deleted within minutes despite not having a moderator on this board, keep up the good work guys, report these scums, we should also use the trust system to tag these folks, we have a few DT members and if we all work collectively by reporting and tagging them -- the mining board will be clear.

HEYYY Mike! Alpha Asic is still here DBA as Dalton Asic Repair. Remember back in 2021 when you said I was a scam.  Since then my team has slayed in repairs and even got a site up to 99.47 up time for a local 10mw site. $250 is our average repair cost. We were a Canaan Warranty repair center in 2022. We thrive in niche units. Seeing a lot of Ice River rigs due warranty repair costing their clients $700 to ship back to China. www.daltonasic.com

Alpha Asic is still here DBA as Dalton Asic Repair.
Is it Alpha Asic or Dalton Asic Repair, I take it that Alpha Miner sued you for using their name? or was it a friendly change you decided to take to avoid trouble? Remember back in 2021 when you said I was a scam. hmm, any quotes for me saying you were a scam? All that I remember is that back in 2011 your website had a claim that says We offer dedicated repair technicians with over 10 years of mining and repair experience. So you claim to have been fixing mining gears before 2011 (long before anybody made a public ASIC miner IIRC) and nobody was there to vouch for you, and I simply stated These are serious claims that need serious proof, I can't possibly add your service to the list with little to no information that I know about you, can anyone vouch for you? if not from this forum, have you done any deals with known people on major telegram mining groups? as it stands right now, you don't seem to be trustworthy, given the number of scams you should understand why everyone here would be skeptical. At that point, you failed to provide any evidence of trustworthiness, and thus adding you to the list would have been a great risk, furthermore, there was and (still is) another company called Alpha Miner, I contacted them and that company said they don't know you, and have nothing to do with you so that added more reasons not to trust you, I try to maintain a "safe list" and I do my best to judge repair centers at the time they request an addition, sadly, I have no crystal ball, so back in 2021 I couldn't see what would you become 2 years in the future. So do you really think I was wrong/unfair for not trusting you 2 years ago? I would hope for an honest answer.  Since then my team has slayed in repairs and even got a site up to 99.47 up time for a local 10mw site. Thats great news. We were a Canaan Warranty repair center in 2022. What happened after 2022?

Have you actually tested them or do you work with them or what? the website seems fishy to me, they have hosting in Czech Republic for 3.4 Koruna, that's about 4 cents per kWh, last I checked the average power rate there is above 15-20 cents ,something is not adding up about a mining repair center in Europe where people hardly mine Bitcoin. Don't get me wrong, not saying they are scammers, I am just thinking out loud.

3 months is ridiculously a long time to get a miner or hashboard repared, But we know Bitmain did a lot worse than that at times, so maybe that is just the "norm" in these repair market. I also understand that troubleshooting some issues might be difficult so some issues are fixed in a few months while others can take a lot longer. In general, one should assume that when they send a miner for repair, it can easily takes months and they should be prepared for that.

For repairs in Europe : www.pcpraha.cz -- there they have service. In Czechia. I can confirm that. Here is link https://pcpraha.cz/en/produkt/oprava-antminer-ks5-pro-al1-s21-t21-l7-l9/?wmc-currency=EUR/There at pcpraha.cz -- shipping cost about 10 USD there, repair from 50 USD. depending of faults. If not feasible or economical to repair they return free of charge.  Also oneminers can repair ASIC miners here https://oneminers.com/pages/asic-miner-repair So you can check here. Basically you are mostly paying for burned chips and the number of burned chips influence price estimate and final price. Repair time varies from few hours to days. BTW: yes they can repair whole palette of ASIC miners in week. These I can truly recommend and I would put hand to the fire for that.

As reminder, oneminers dot com is a probable scam mining company. This user also claimed another service he mentioned on quoted post already rebranded into oneminers. This user keep performing SEO spam (by sharing link and keyword stuffing), where moderator take no action about it. Proof of his SEO spam can be seen on https://ninjastic.space/search?author=serchan&content=oneminers%7Casicprofit%7C%22one%20miners%22%7C%22one%20miner%22%7C%22asic%20profit%22%7Coneminers.com%7Casicprofit.com%7Cminerboxes%7Cminerboxes.com%7C%22miner%20boxes%22.

Giving relevant information with exact links with exact data, photos and values instead of general vague posts is much more valuable and especially when it is written by sophisticated and clever educated specialist with dozen years of expertise. Really look. Reading my 50 posts would give you more info than somebody's vague 2K comments (not mentioning yours, because I do not know yours as I am not clicking on profiles of people who do advertisement here - with all respect . I just don't click on adds  , don't take it personally ). And regarding SEO -- that thing does not exist last 5 years as it used to exist. Please be up to date. Google is not giving away some MOZ or DA or some domain rating and such things you could here from many SEO charlatans . It has changed. Google algorithm is super complicated and advanced and mainly not public at all, and do not know anybody who at least know how it works these days. We have some clues, we know how it does not work. But what you are trying to impose that there are links and that it is bad, it is bad maybe for you or I do not know your agenda but for our forum it is good. They have relevant info and the links are to relevant existing companies with license. If I could I would cancel those guys here who have Betting , Casinos, NFTs promotion and investment to Ponzi schemes or cloud mining scams promotion in their bio or their Image. So please try to help our community and give more information and relevant and stay open minded and open for new opinion. Don't let your agenda here obstruct objectives and free spread of information.

1. I'll let people read thread oneminers dot com is a probable scam mining company and let them evaluate whether that thread is detailed, vague or something else. 2. I find it's weird you never respond to @mikeywith question and then creating another post which share same link/website again few months later. 3. Are you aware that creating reply with one or more big images seen seen as poor etiquette by some people? 4. Another relevant thread, Growing SEO spam on Bitcointalk.

You were asked a simple question, you either intentionally or unintentionally ignored it, people know and understand that the majority of mining related services are scam, it is only fair that people would question any new service and it's whitin your frame of responsibility to provide the required proof that shows otherwise, taking things into personal matters with other members isn't going to make your name appear any better.

Shipping your mining gear back to China for repair isn't the best idea, shipping to and from China will cost a lot, or your miner could be " confiscated" by the manufacturer. I thought there should be a list of good repair services that all miners can access locally based on their geographical location, this will ensure a cheaper shipping rate and a much faster repair process. I will be updating the list regularly as information come by, if you have or know a repair service please share it here or send it to me via pm, I will try to do some basic research on all the services I list here, but you will deal with them at your own risk. Inputs coming from trusted members of the mining community in Bitcointalk will be very helpful. United StatesService: https://www.hmtech.co/services/Prices: $150 for basic repairs - $300 for advanced (Based on my years of mining, most issues are basic) City/State: North Carolina First Mention by: philipma1957Service: Bitmain Repair Service City/State: NASHUA, NH Address and more info: https://blog.bitmain.com/en/bitmain-announces-new-repair-site-in-new-hampshire-usa-to-support-more-customers/Service: Scott’s Crypto Mining Prices: $50 diagnostics fee waived if repaired. Repair fee, $150 per board. Address: 16520 La Vela Circle Upper, Brookfield, WI 53005 Website: https://repair.scottscryptomining.com/repair/Service: Myrig City/State: Denver, Colorado More info : https://service.myrig.com/** There was a negative review on Myrig, there are mixed reviews on this service, some clients are happy with their services, others are not, there are no "direct scam" reports against "myrig", but some members mentioned that they had to wait for months to get a reply from them, please read the reviews and decide for yourself.

Attention: The miner repair points shown on the map below are independent individuals. This site only offers a free display. Please contact the maintenance point for specific matters. If there is any dispute, please resolve it by negotiation. Any consequences will not be related to this site.
It's unlikely that someone will go to this extremes measure to scam, also since these providers are nearby, it would make sense that you could actually visit them in real life to confirm their integrity, while I wouldn't blindly trust them, I believe they are likely legit, but you MUST dyor. ** I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS/DELAY YOU MAY ENCOUNTER USING ANY OF THE SERVICES LISTED ABOVE, THIS TOPIC IS MAINTAIN FREELY AND BASED ON THE COMMUNITY REVIEWS, TRADE AT YOUR OWN RISK**. I think there are so many scammers these days, both in real life and online, so no matter where you send your device for repair, you should always be careful. Prioritize repair centers with physical locations. If there aren't any repair centers, find a reputable, officially certified repairer to avoid being scammed. (Remember, if they ask you to pay, don't pay. Avoid any risk of being scammed and don't give scammers any opportunity.)
