The QR code will change each time the page loads. So you may have to scan it again to get a new code. After enabling it the account key will be locked.

Most likely your phone's clock is inaccurate. Please sync your time with some standard time sources. We tolerate up to 90 seconds.

Clock is set by cellular network.  I can't change it.

My phone seems to be about 1 minute behind the forum timestamps.

That's very sad! You can tell your cell operator about this and ask them to sync their time properly. You can disable cellular time temporarily and set your own time. 1-minute behind reality is not good!

Let me explain how customer service works here in America:
1. 1 hour on hold
2. I am unable to assist you with that.  I can transfer you to X who may be able to help.
3. 30 minute hold
4. I am unable to assist you with that. I can transfer you to Y who may be able to help.
5. 30 minute hold
6. I am unable to assist you.  Let me give you a ticket number and I'll have a technician call you back.
7. Technician calls.  "Our infrastructure follows industry standards.  We will take note of your complaint and may change it next time we upgrade our gear (sometime in the next 15 years)"

So, yeah. I'll do that as soon as you give me a Bitcoinica code for 2 hours of my time.

MORE CODES!! LOL

What happend so funny while last time you introduce this  24-Hour_Spread-Free think?

[tickets]

How do you 'activate' the legit mtgox spread?  Im on bitcoinica trading page and I see
4.6/5.2 while on mtgox its 4.8/5.1 ??

[M4v3R]

By best guess about this: There's always a little margin, because even though there are bids/asks in 6.48 - 6.51 area they are very small, and because of that Bitcoinica can't use them to provide enough liquidity for its users. From what I saw they need the cumulative bids at given price to be 50 BTC or more to consider that price.
