TECHNOBIT fucked us

[Unacceptable]

Oh please you all should have known better.

How many times must you all be warned?

Marto has been screwing people since 2013 and you all keep coming back for more.

Marto is probrobly the most honest person in all of bitcoin land.

So is Josh Zerlan!!!

Furthermore I allow myself no judgment.
We all can come even in difficult situations.
But: When it comes to other people's money , then we must have the courage and talk with these people and explain these problems.
No one will rip your head off in this case, I think.
(ok, the few cholerics are the exception) ;-)
Unfortunately, there are also plenty of black sheeps who want to come on your money.
This talk just hot air and if they have your money, you will never hear again some of those.
They dissolve into what they have promised you. HOT AIR.
And now distinguish even know who belongs to which group.

As I said: Furthermore I allow myself no judgment.

Well... I dunno... but... Marto/Technobit are from Bulgaria...

That's no longer a problem. For 20 euros you can now fly halfway around the world.
Ok , not from Germany , for there the pilots on strike. Again. As just last month. And 14 days before.
And with a low-cost-airline is not an option too.
I give up , you're right.

Well it didnt pan out for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang when the Bulgarians tried to dismantle him and rebuild now did it.  Like I've stated before it sucks these companies can take orders and just dissappear.  We need regulation or at least more moderation on this site to circumvent fraudulent activities from these companies.

Dude!!! Go wash your mouth...

[notbatman]

[...] We need regulation [...]

Dude!!! Go wash your mouth...

All we really need is enforcement of existing laws against these these scammers, the fact BTC may or may not be involved is irreverent.

No, all we really need is an armed society. But those "providing" us regulation, regulated the arms away so we wouldn't "regulate" them...

Buying With Bitcoin: How to Get Your Money Back When a Purchase Goes Wrong

Remember do not buy from Technobit... or invest.

Technobit Awol.
Minersource site down.

Is it time for the I told you so?

Marto is still online, he's just posted a new BTCJam project yesterday.

https://btcjam.com/listings/35145-mining-equipment-heat-to-power-recuperation-project I'd be interested in technical details, but those percentages are a bit too far fetched even for me.

Actual efficiency of high end thermionic generators is around 10%.

I was looking at something similar last year, but left it with my "to try later" projects because of the following:
-components quite expensive.
-Only 5-10% efficiency to be expected

You can have a look at ATEG efficiency, as an example, or the following article:

And the following explainations from a manufacturer that claims that

Generally, if you’re getting 2 to 3%
between power in and power out on a bismuth
telluride TEG, you’re doing pretty well.

Any refunds been processed as yet?

[Unblock64]

My order from 5.2 :
2015-02-23 18:26:27    Courier Pick-up    SOFIA

I hope that there will be what I ordered and functionally

[Unblock64]

Today it's a nice surprise that I ordered arrived miner HEX4M from TECHNOBIT.
But my joy vanished when I opened the box. I smelled the smell of burning hardware.
The device was stained with greasy dust ...

A few pictures ...

[Bicknellski]

I am pretty sure you got a burnt unit because you posted this thread.

Marto doesn't play nice with customers that demand product or services publically. This isn't the first time he has pulled this shit on people. I wouldn't be surprised if you get nothing back for a while or you get another faulty unit.

[Unblock64]

I have received a tracking number from Martha. I was very surprised how quickly it responds. I hope that compensation will come right.
After you delete a wrong rating ...

There is a pattern.

It will continue as long as people keep buying from this company. 3 years of the same sort of bullshit. I hope people learn from your troubles and avoid this company in future.

Again We are sorry for the mistake.
Replacement have been shipped.

And, Bick......
greetings

I am not sure what miners you are talking about, but as far as i know they are just a shop which orders from other companies who make a deal with them to sell miners.
Never seen them have own brand miners in shop.
I think you ordered one miner which probably was from a company which disappeared.
Their are plenty which was going to deliver in feb. but went offline or never answer if you mail them

Worth mentioning that Technobit had a deal where you could trade them Black Arrow chips and get an assembled Black Arrow board with a couple fewer chips.  This was back in July and they claimed they'd be shipping in a couple weeks.  Minersource did a deal where they traded a lot of the Black Arrow orders they owed but couldn't get because Black Arrow couldn't seem to ship anything not crappy and/or explosive.  As far as I know, though, Minersource never had money from that, they simply traded chips from Black Arrow to Technobit.  As far as I know no one on that deal got any hardware ever.  Supposedly there were some bad parts put on the boards, which caused the initial delay.  Our hosting center should have had quite a few of the Technobit boards, and we even offered Technobit to do the repair for free on the boards that should have come here.  They talked with us a bit then never said anything to us after.  They had plenty of stock and have shipped the same boards to other people, but for some reason I haven't heard of one of the orders through that big Minersource trade going through.  I wouldn't deal with them after seeing this.

Everything above is as far as I know- and I didn't order anything from them so that might not be too far, but we were discussing helping them fill that minersource order, possibly doing more than just the assembly on boards to be hosted here- and they suddenly went dark on us, all while their website claimed they had the exact same boards in stock and shipping.

Makes you wonder who would want to order from Technobit... sad to say but people need to heed the warnings and avoid Technobit at all costs.

[loshia]

Makes me wander when people will start listening to you and stop mining and start investing in btc
You are pathetic professor .  
That is all minig section is about to listen to you and NOT MINE....
Go back to school teacher and teach young BOYS and girls what is right and what is wrong please
That is your specalty right
And please send some coins to Chris as promised. Be a man
In worst case you can send a fancy blinking LEDs video to Chris like you did to people who were paing you so called member ship fee
By the way did your ex paying members have a clue where their many have gone
Please save your efferots we know the answer and the answer is........
All scammers have two things in common
1 all of them showed fancy videos and pics
2. When real action time comes, it turns out that money were gone only LEDs , pics and videos were left

But only clever ones are fighting for the "good cause" which will safe the world some day for sure

Ps all of the above are facts for the readers but LEDboy is actively refusing to comment them for years...
but remember he is from the "good fellows" the light in the end of the tunnel 

[Bicknellski]

Why are customers waiting for products again? Things Loshia won't admit Technobit is a fraud because he is paid to promote them.

"Our hosting center should have had quite a few of the Technobit boards, and we even offered Technobit to do the repair for free on the boards that should have come here.  They talked with us a bit then never said anything to us after.  They had plenty of stock and have shipped the same boards to other people, but for some reason I haven't heard of one of the orders through that big Minersource trade going through.  I wouldn't deal with them after seeing this."
