There he is, our CEO


I can safely say that to know him was to love him. And to love him was to know him. Those who knew him, loved him, while those who did not know him, loved him from afar

Did I miss something? Wasn't there supposed to be an announcement about their next excuse for not shipping customer's miners. Have they gone totally dark, off the radar completely? Sure doesn't instill any confidence to those who are waiting for their rigs.

Their last update was the first week of october about them being several days ahead of schedule for assembly, after which the systems would automatically be shipped out. They said they'd be releasing another update within a week. It never came. Their forums are lighting up and it's all falling apart over there with their long-term fans starting to realize the truth.

They've gone dark, removed their address and contact from the website. If they have functional equipment, they're likely mining with it like BFL did. There's also the greater likelihood they don't have any functional gear (something went wrong/lack of assembly parts/etc). Lack of communication is always a bad sign, especially when they state their Manchester operation is for customer service and open communication--and then remove the paths for that.

Last call for the lifeboats before the ship sails.. you folks better get your lawsuits and demands in place before they disappear entirely. If you went through PayPal, badger paypal. Use the reference numbers provided on the preceding pages, PayPal has a history of Alpha Tech. Don't give up just because one representative is an idiot.

So let me get this right?

Alpha Tech has cancelled everyone's orders, they are refunding 30% for only the customers who paid in full, those who only paid the deposit are shit out of luck, and those who paid using BTC are completely SOL?

That's how they thank all of their loyal customers who funded this project. As investors the customers have taken all of the risk, put up with all the delays, and are now being thanked by generously returning 30% of the funds (to select customers) and cancelling all orders.

Wow, I'm speechless, they've gotten away with murder. As a business they were already making a profit on each mining rig they sold. Example, their cost on a 250Mh/s Viper is probably 25% of the MSRP. In other words, for each one they sell they bring in enough money to build 4 more.

Essentially they got a massive custom built ASIC mining farm for free? Sounds like this may have been the plan from day one. I wanted to purchase a couple of Vipers from them but, when I saw the picture of their store front and learned they were accountants, I hesitated. It looks like I had good reason to hesitate. These crooked accountants planned this out all the way. It obvious when you look at all of their actions holistically. They clearly don't plan on staying on the radar. I suspect their biggest fear is to lose their accounting licences. These assholes need to be taught a lesson and they should have their lives completely ruined. I hope they go to jail.

You guys are being too nice to these jerks. Yes you want to get your money back and you should do everything possible to get it. Someone needs to organize a real criminal investigation to help put them behind bars.

The problem is that it costs additional money to fight them.  This doesn't guarantee any funds will be returned but does guarantee the loss of additional funds for the claimee.

They've shit the bed again, obviously.

Any time any of these companies goes dark, run like hell.  The instant these pukes looked likely to miss their date and started getting squirrely with the updates I pulled the ripcord.  There are other vendors out there.

They are very fast, all of them, to report victories, or everything rolling on schedule.  When the shit hits the fan the POS assholes can't find their keyboards for anything.

I finally threw in the towel. Requested a 60% refund and instead, got only my PayPal deposits refunded. All of the funds I paid via Bitcoin for my final payment back in May are gone. I read the last couple of pages and saw that BitPay is investigating, so I sent them a message via their website form.

I am starting to think they intentionally delayed to get people to take partial refunds, thereby funding the development of their hardware and enabling them to start a farm on the backs of their customers' money.

Entirely too many scammers in this business. Knew it was a risk pre-ordering with these guys, but for a long time they seemed to be on the up and up. Now I'm going to try to get every dime back I can from them...30% isn't going to cut it, when I invested as much as I did in this.

Guys, AT doesnt have an asic farm paid with your money. They dont even have the chips. They just took your money and closed the business. With that amount of money they probably can live comfortably for a long time in india or whatever country they came from.

Has anyone succeeded in communicating with Alpha-T's ( https://alpha-t.net/about-us/team-2/ ) esteemed VP of ASIC Development and Supply Chain Management Eric Gunn ( http://www.linkedin.com/pub/eric-gunn/0/287/59 ), also VP of Business Development at Gold Standard Simulations ( http://www.goldstandardsimulations.com/corporate/staff/ ) and Silera Ltd. ( https://www.opencompany.co.uk/company/SC351924/silera-limited ) ?

I'm guessing its the same guy. He still has

listed on his LinkedIn page. Eric probably knows as much as anyone about the status of the Viper miner.

Someone successfully talked to him on Linkedin and as soon as the topic came up, he broke communication. I would say they're all in on it.

Anyone on here actually live in Manchester? I'd donate BTC to any person who pays these guys a visit, in person, and encourages them, by whatever means necessary, to refund customer's money. I'm one of the poor bastards who has paid in full.

They'll eventually pay up one way or another. Too many angry wealthy people got f#cked over. Scamming mf's, enjoy what time you have left.

Isn't it great how they're capable of moderating the forum, but incapable of doing the jobs people paid them to do?

heh moderating the forum...this forum for me does not come up no matter how I click it on bitcointalk watch list

and if I try to quote someone to reply it won't let me

so yeah.....as banned as I can be I guess

as to my point


the people who live near where the pic of their shabby store front is....could you not try to 'seize that'
probably it is rented but someone should look up the deed etc if it is not rented .....get a judgment soonest

only idea I have I got a refund (one of the first) thru amex..1st dispute denied.....alpha neglected to point out in
reply that I did NOT pay in full just wanted my 30% back...again lost that one...another 45 days go by with me
piling on more facts and the amex reps adding it to the dispute comments...and viola got my 30% on the vyper
back

I take it as an honor one of the first banned from their forums..heh..it was only like 680 usd or some such on
a vyper but still

anyway the only asset I've seen from these guys is the store front.....ask around that area..they MAY own
other buildings you could get a judgment from (supposedly they were accountants in that area don't ya know
and accountants tend to buy property not rent) ...and if you make a killing remeber little old me!!!!!!

anyway sorry for the folk who paid and lost the 70% as my purchase of my NO ROI NO REFUND KNC Titan
miner (arrived 11/8/14) and cost me 10,131.80 ..the day I got it 7 weeks late...on ebay you could pick
one up new in the box for 4.1K unopened. ...and they only mine litecoin the firmware is dorky...no multipools no
scrypt N etc as promised a cube or unit bad 2 month RMA estimate etc etc

and this is what happens when a previous reputable company goes down the bitcoin farm only route
and follows greed........so crap even when you get a good product and they have ethics in 2013
does not mean they will keep ethics vs $$$ in 2014....KNC has made 200 million by some estimates..now going
all virtual cloud hosting..getting IPO for more millions...so shuffling us small fry out the door shoo...

so yeah......I guess this is maybe a 'sign from god' that home mining is no longer in the cards ..but anyway
don't feel alone are quite a few of us that got burnt by turns of fate in the asic world

(ie no pre-orders .... www.coinbase.com is my friend .... so tranquil little $$$ amounts ...leisurely)
