For those who don't know Scott, he owns a mining-related company in the U.S, he has a great reputation in the telegram's mining community, I have know him since 2019 IIRC, glad to see him offering repair services, hopefully, we get to read some good reviews on his service in this thread soon. Good luck.

ASIC Master update from the front lines…
Recovering the previous regime is nearly done(I will however endorse his superb teaching ability without reservation). Having finished processing our largest orders, I’ve begun contacting and fixing our small S17 series customers. Most have been understanding, I’m even offering a backlog clearance price. Only one flamer so far, it really stings being called a scammer when you are trying to make things right (in this case having to inform him we don’t repair DR5 hashboards). With the clearing of the backlog we are moving our focus to S19, M2x, and M3x series miner repair only.
As of last week, Whatsminers are the machine we can repair in the largest volume because MicroBT sent factory support staff from their headquarters in Shenzhen to train our entire staff on their machines! (I was also able to carve out some time to learn about power supply and control board repair. coming soon.)
We had a rough start this year, not gonna lie. I’m not gonna tell you to choose ASIC Master because we have a cool name and are centrally located in Chicago. I wont bullshit people with pieces of paper that prove we can spend money and are great on tests. I’ll just be as transparent as I’m able, let you know what’s going on, and be here when you need us.
With Gratitude, Jay

Well for 1, ask about your problem in the CompacF thread...Odds are you will find answers to your problem there. If it is a serious problem - contact the vendor you bought it from for Warranty service.

How long have those S17 gears been sitting in ASIC Master's warehouse? also, what measures did ASIC Master take to ensure the same long waits don't happen again? gaining trust is pretty difficult. I understand you are not the owner nor the salesperson for ASIC Master, and you are doing a great job keeping forum members up to date, I do appreciate all the work you do here.

It's going to take some vouching to be added for sure, but it takes some pictures/videos and any other proof for members actually to trust sending their gear to you, upon checking your website, I found nothing enduring, you seem to be using the same photo (not a real photo of some ASIC miner) floating on all the different pages. I am not trying to tell you what to do, I am not the boss here, this is just friendly advice if you want to do business in the forum, the default/common belief around here is that "everyone is a scammer until proven otherwise" so please don't take anything I or anyone else say personal.

I am absolutely gutted to discover that Scott's account was permanently banned in Feb just today. He seemed genuine, and his service reputation was growing in this community. To me, he doesn't come off as someone who would practice plagiarism for financial gain. Maybe if he was banned for another form of offense

How did you know he was banned? He never mentioned anything to me so I am not aware, is it possible that he copied something from his own website and was a victim to one of the "bots" that screen the forum for plagiarism? I also doubt he would copy-paste something for the sake of posting, I'll see whats up with him and if he wants to come back and is willing to go through the process of appealing.

I saw the ban tag with the help of the Bpip extension and the profile information - https://bpip.org/Profile?id=1449095I wanted to send him a PM asking him whether he was open to the idea of making an appeal if he felt he still wanted to be part of the forum and the ban was unfair, but I wasn't sure yet if a permanently banned account can receive PMs a well. If you have already communicated to him, then it's all good. I won't send a PM.

You are right, I just checked and he is indeed banned on the forum, I contact him on telegram to see if he has any idea about this, I have a feeling he was not aware about the ban at all, but let's see if he wants to come back, we can help him with the ban-appeal process, I don't want to jump to any speculation but I think his appeal will have a high chance of acceptance.

I understand you are not the owner nor the salesperson for ASIC Master, and you are doing a great job keeping forum members up to date, I do appreciate all the work you do here. After it was clear there was no future and the monotony of warranty repair had worn me down, I quit ASIC Master. After the treatment I received for not spending more time on our new paying customer, there was simply no reason to stay. I decades of being an electronics technician I have never been told to stop speaking to a customer. This is when I learned what a hobby business was. Now I am a freelance ASIC repair instructor who does repair only on the side. I can be found on LinkedIn. I am also now trying out an association with Scott Offord. He has a five seat Wisconsin training center, I'll be teaching in(on site is my preference though). Also, if you have an S19 repair order with him, it will likely be me doing the work. And yes, his bots likely got him in trouble(if it was something else I'm all ears). Perhaps an admin could take a look at his account. To answer your question, I don't know. Many may have been there since before I began Feb2022, and for a year I didn't pay any attention to the S&R desk. Regards, Maestro Juergen

The writing was on the wall, you have a small company with a few repair folks, and then out of a sudden Bitmain sends out a couple of hundred thousand 17 series, 40-50% of them failed within a few weeks/months, they all needed repair at the same time, orders start coming in, you don't want to reject repair tickets, you keep bringing in more gears than you can repair, and then ka-boom. You need up with dozen gears on the shelves, and thousands of angry clients as well as workers, a year later, that gear is worth little to nothing, no worth fixing, a complete mess created by Bitmain and made worse by all the greedy and incompetent repair centers, this isn't just ASIC Master, it's safe to assume that 90% of those repair companies made the same exact mistake. I am also now trying out an association with Scott Offord. He has a five seat Wisconsin training center, I'll be teaching in(on site is my preference though). Also, if you have an S19 repair order with him, it will likely be me doing the work. And yes, his bots likely got him in trouble(if it was something else I'm all ears). Perhaps an admin could take a look at his account.
Good to hear you have patterned with Scott, we did all we could to lift the ban on his account, but alas, these things take forever to happen.

For ASIC miner repairs or fixes, it's best to reach out to the manufacturer's official service centers or authorized repair providers. Many major ASIC manufacturers offer specific repair services for their products. Additionally, online forums and communities often provide recommendations for reliable repair options.

Only if it was this simple, in many cases, you can't just count on the manufacturer-authorized guys, these cases such as but not limited to 1- When you need a single hash board fixed and the manufacturer forces you to send the whole miner. 2- Long waiting times to get a miner fixed (happens during bull markets and when Bitmain launches a shit quality series where more miners need fixing than they can fix). 3- The nearest repair center is way too far and shipping alone would cost more than fixing it locally. And the list goes on, if mining gear manufacturers offered a close to perfect repair service, none of this would have been needed.
