Placed an order to move some money between exchanges and got "Order Execution Failed", yet they already redeemed my coupon.
Can't get ahold of anyone on their chat or telephone.

This happened to me too, I went to my CVS to deposit about $500 into Mt. Gox, but the funds never showed up. I've deposited at the same CVS location via MoneyGram several times before, and in the past the funds would always show up in my Mt. Gox account before I left the building (under a minute after paying the cashier), but it's been an hour and funds are still missing from my Mt. Gox account. Also, BitInstant's phone number goes to a Google Voice account with no humans to be found. This is not good - hopefully they refund me the absurd 3.99% fee of ~$22 after they deposit my funds ASAP...

All Orders have been completed (Except for some BTC-E) If you have an order that was delayed, please email support@bitinstant.com and we will refund the fees for it. We apologize for the delay, as you can imagine when our system went down many customers were calling for their funds. Now, we are all in the office late responding to all emails and calls. Thanks for your patience and understanding -Charlie

Thanks Charlie, glad to see the funds are in my account now! Sorry for the rant, please forgive my selfishness - you guys must be busy, lots of people buying the bitcoin breakout to new highs However, I must say that the 3.99% fee is annoying though, I thought that fees were supposed to be between 1% and 3%

Just so you know, on a 3.99% transaction, our profit (before rent, salaries, ect..) is about 1% The banks charge us an arm and a leg!

Awesome! My funds were deposited, and Charlie even sent me a $22 Mt. Gox redeemable code as a fee refund from BitInstant and an apology for the delay! I am now a happy BitInstant customer again!

Thats not fair, our system works 99.9% of the time and we use 7 different API's of all the exchanges. When one fails, we have to fix it for the exchange and of course, you blame us.

I have no idea how it works on your end. I just see that my money is stuck with you guys, and no one is on chat or on the phone. I don't even want to move the funds now, since the opportunity is gone.
