In february I sent my Antminer D3, very good condition, to Bitmain for repair. Two boards were broken.

The miner was operated in a server cabinet. No dust and no moisture.

Today I got the alleged repair device back.

But that was not a new miner and not in the good condition as I gave him.

Everything is scratched and the heatsinks are corroded. The steel plate and the ventilation grille is also corroded to some extent.

I'm really upset. Since you give a good device and get a piece of scrap.

Who knows the conditions under which it was installed and how long it will last.

I hate Bitmain. They are cheaters.

The moment you buy their products,

you already agreed on their horrible terms of services

they are well known for this type of activities

a risk embedded together with Bitmain product

What did you expect when you deal with Bitmain and Jihan Wu? They are knowned scammeds around this forum. Their warrent is a complete joke, 6 months?! That is why we need bring back GPU mining. Dont buy ASICs, you will lose money on it.

I have had the same experience. I have even opened up new miners and found used parts inside a brand new miner welcome to the world of horrible customer service in ASIC manufacturers

Bitmain aftersales service quality sure varies a lot.

I have personally never had an issue when I have had an RMA case,
but lots and lots of people here at the forum have reported about bad service quality over the years.

At the moment it looks like the best aftersales service you can get among ASIC device manufacturers is from Canaan Creative.

Posts like this is why I am glad I never have gotten an ASIC from Bitmain.

Yup, they can't put all those fancy new replacement parts they have on whatever the fuck miner they are about to release next on us to out on your miner, I mean they already have your money. 

You might be able to buy replacement parts though online. Good luck.  Avoid Bitmain.
