GAW Miners

[Hazir]

If you want to purchase mining contract just choose wisely. It does not matter as long as pick some good reputable company from the top. Don't risk your money by sticking to some random less known business which can disappear tomorrow.

GAW attempted to scam me for several thousand dollars and it took about 2 months to get any kind of resolution. I order 3 war machines and got Zeus Lightning's in return. They did this to several customers (there's a thread over at Zeus about it). Finally when I threatened to file a fraud complaint with the FTC, things started to move quickly.  But in the end, all Zeus units arrived scratched, dusty, random used cables tossed in the box, in one case they sent me a Thunder X3 and tried to pawn it off as a Lightning X6 because "Lightning" was written in a grease pen on the side of the box. One of the Lightnings was different, it had a different form factor, chip voltages, and usb board. With no documentation or help from GAW it was a nightmare to find the correct version of cgminer (or bfgminer) and command line settings that would work with them. I'll never order from GAW again and would suggest others to stay away from them as well.  If you've been GAW'd, here are my suggestions:

1) Keep opening tickets with complaints (average response time is about 3 days)
2) Send photo’s of what you received to the support people and attach photos to the support tickets.
3) Tell them you’re going to file a fraud complaint with the FTC and your bank.
4) Calling them on the phone does no good, they tell you they will “have to get back to you” and never do.
5) Keep posting in the hashtalk forums with pictures of your order and the junk you may have received. Pictures is the key to hashtalk, otherwise the local yokels there will just ban you or delete your post.

You can contact Amber or Josh who will at least get someone to look at your ticket, but they don't resolve anything themselves. The elbow grease is done by other people, which isn't saying much considering how long it takes to get something done. What really burned my biscuits was to see Josh (the ceo) attend a bitcoin miners conference in Las Vegas on the customers dime.  Avoid doing business with these people, it wasn't worth it in my experience.

Attempted means that they finally didn't, right?

Here's a thread where you ask for help with a WAR MACHINE, so looks like you got it.

From another perspective your order god mixed up and you got a different miner, but they finally sent you the real one.

You'd like Josh to personally go and pack your miner? This is a big company they have departments there responsible for certain things.
Please don't lie, he went to the conference on his own dime. An owner of one of the biggest cloud mining companies doesn't have to borrow cash for a local flight.
