Is blockchain.info receive payments API broken?

[munofar]

Hi.

Is the blockchain.info API working for you?

I'm developing with it and the test goes OK (my callback gets hit in test mode).

I'm generating addresses correctly but:

- They've  disabled the anonymous feature. In the examples, the request to generate a new address is of the form.
   https://blockchain.info/api/receive?method=create&address=$receiving_address&callback=$callback_url
  
   but that returns error if you don't include the old "anonymous" parameter.

- Money sent to the generated address doesn't gets to the other side, no matter if
  the "anonymous" parameter is set to "true" or "false"
  (maybe the amounts were too tiny - order of millibitcoin?)

Thanks

And poor Ben's being unresponsive currently. Poor guy needs more employees now that blockchain.info's so huge. I'll PM him on this too I guess.

The first issue should be fixed now. What amount are you trying to send through? For anonymous payments the recomended minimum is 0.1 BTC.

Thank you for notifying me.

Wow, thanks. I tought you were joking 

The first issue should be fixed now. What amount are you trying to send through? For anonymous payments the recomended minimum is 0.1 BTC.

-   The amounts are tiny: 0.0002 BTC, 0.001 BTC and 0.0007 BTC.
  I know it's ridiculous but I don't have much BTC and just wanted
  to debug my code.

    Now they've finally moved! They made a couple of jumps.
  The two first are anonymous and the last isn't, but none of them
  have arrived yet to their destiny. I guess they will do eventually.
  (I made some tests about 6 months ago, also with tiny amounts, and things were
  much faster, that's why I got scared).

-  What about the callback? It never arrived. Only the call made by the
  test thingie at the developer's page arrives.

-  BTW, is the receive anonymous feature going to dissapear? I was
  attracted because the web claimed that no confirmation checking is
  needed when receiving anonymous payments;

Broken again....

Yes, again the money is stuck somewhere.
I've received some payments to the generated adresses but they don't
go through the shared thinguie to get to my destination address.

yeah, I was testing my code, and generating addresses with the Receive API.  I sent a lot of payments to test, and none of them showed up.  Sent an email to support.

This morning, I tried it again, and one has gone through.  But none of the payments that were sent from last night have arrived.

Now the money seems to flow again. It's some sort of Sunday syndrome.

"Sunday syndrome". Got that now..

I just had the same issue with their API. I just sent 0.433 btc to this blockchain generated address (1G25oJLqHDJWeYuvV2gofiH81bueFvZyj3) but they never hit my wallet ...

First time it happens. Did it already happen to you ?
