[VMC] Unofficial Virtual Mining Corporation Discussion

[magzy]

Hi everyone,
I'm trying understand business policy of VMC
I'm waiting for refund since february this year
there is no chance to get back my money??
I'm from Poland and I don't have idea how to
get back my money .
From VMC i hear only empty words
refund start within 2-4 weeks and there is no check
after 2 months now I'm pissed off
and now I'm searching for lawyer in U.S. maybe he(she) help me .
Who can do something or if anyone have any idea how we can
do something with it .
another idea is group lawsuit?
Sorry for my english 
Regards
Leo

Leo, pm kslaughter tell him you have been waiting since Feb and that you require a refund. Or you can ask him to convert your order to a gold rush card that's currently in stock.

It's a complete mess and there are other people in the same situation.

If you're not happy you can join the class action (link on page 1)

And contact the Missouri securities division ( imgur link on page 1) to assist in their investigation into ken VMC and his mining venture active mining.

If you need any further help in understanding any of this then just shout..

Ask about your refund in here.
I understand your situation.

Hey all i got 5 out of my 6 prospectors here today, Ken didn't give me any tracking but it is here with harness kits and everything. just missing the one now. I have the psu's and water coolers coming on monday. so i will tell you how many of them work.

Ken and VMC are starting to become better

[RoadStress]

First of all, I don't want to do business with bitpay because they are in bed with BFL.  Second, there are a lot of other things going on in the background that need to be taken care of, i.e datacenter, cash flow, lawyers, MSD, customer service, just to name a few.

Quoted for history. People actually pay a salary for this incompetence.

Refunds:
@Magzy- 2nd Refund check arrived - awaiting clearance at bank.

@metalchain - Still waiting - I sent PM to Ken many times. He always reply to me "We will ~~, ASAP~~~, Quickly~~~, next week~~~"

@cryptoconomist- still waiting  - "Two weeks ago on a Friday I spoke to him again and he  literally promised me he was going to ship my order on the following Monday, but haven't heard from him. Since then, when I log into my account, my initial order has now been moved to "refund" status and my new order to "cancelled" which contradicts what Ken and I discussed.  I wrote so many emails to him and to the Active Mining threads but my posts keep getting deleted"

@meccaflare0 - still waiting "ken owes me like $x"

@greek_hephaestus - unknown  -"Thank you very much Magzy for your suggestion . I will do it in a few days. [contact the AG] First I send one more message to VMC. Thank's again."

[metalchain]

Nope. I requested refund in end of January, still waiting.

1 orderd by VinceSaimos - took 5 weeks to arrive - working ok.

Point of information - it took Ken 5 days to ship after I paid, and I think 2.5 weeks in total to arrive. Because it's shipping to the UK and UK customs are slow as shit.

It's not "working ok" - it's performing like a champion! Over spec on the hash-rate and 100% stable

I've now ordered two gold rush cards which took ken 1 day to ship after I paid, they haven't arrived yet.

Vinny, the one that took 5 days to arrive?  That one's not working   Try telling the whole truth -- you'll be surprised how good it feels!

...  calling it a night.  this is much more of a pain than I was expecting.  I have 1.5TH sitting around that I cant use.  i'll try again tomorrow.

Chops, maybe something is going over my head, but you are quoting finlof there (not Vince)

[lobbes]

qukkM claiming to have been waiting 5 months for a refund

Ken you made an error with your quoting in your previous post, FYI. Hashfast seems to be going bankrupt. What is the plan for a proprietary chip?

Thanks, I be answering most of these question on Wednesday.

Ken why did you miss your self imposed deadline? Again? Can you answer my question please?

Sorry, I forgot, been busy doing customer support.

Ken if you have been doing customer support can you tell me when you will reissue my cheque refund after failing to sign the original cheque. I sent the cheque back as requested and now you are ignoring all of my messages either through the store or through here. What do I need to go to get a refund that I was promised would take 10 days,  it is now 5 months later and I am still waiting.

Quoting them both, Vincent's the first quote, finlof the second.  The 5-day delivery mentioned by Vince went to finlof, who hasn't been able to get the board to work yet.  Vincent's delivery took ~ a month.

[NotLambchop]

@finlof:  Did you ever get that board hashing?

[rangerbob21]

I received my GR card within a week. It is underperforming but I got it quick...

[bkminer]

I received my GR card within a week. It is underperforming but I got it quick...

How long did it take from payment to delivery?

Thanks

[metroickha]

[meccaflare0]

It's almost been six month and still no refund from Ken. No one answers the phone or emails. Is anyone else getting any luck getting a hold of Ken or anyone at VMC.
