SHARING MY EXPERIENCE TRADING BITCOINS USING FURCOINS ( https://furcoins.com/ Jan 8 – furcoins received my payment to buy bitcoin amounting to USD 1022.09 thru western unionJan 9 – furcoins confirmed to send bitcoin to my wallet , waited for 6 hours, to my surprise furcoins send it to the wrong bitcoin address (very unlikely)Furcoins confirmed bitcoins has been sent to my correct wallet, I am still waiting for bitcoin to be deposited in my wallet for 24 hours now. Which is way beyond what furcoins guarantee to its customers of 45 minutes – 6 hours waiting time to be deposited (see faq section https://furcoins.com/faq/ )I’ve been requesting several times already for a screen shot from furcoins system showing that furcoins already sent bitcoin in my wallet – furcoins won’t provide itIt should be similar to a customer sending screen shots confirming payment made thru western union or MoneyGramUnder its faq section ( https://furcoins.com/faq/ )Why did I not receive the coins after paying? If your payment has been received and you do not get the bitcoins within 6 working hours after paying (maximum delay), contact the customer care support 24 hours passed, still no bitcoin deposited in my walletKeep coordinating with furcoins customer support, all I just get is ‘hold’ just ‘hold’ How can I prove that a bitcoin transfer was made? By checking http://blockchain.info/address/youraddress you will be able to see the records of the coins that were sent to or from your address.no transactions have been made on my address for 24 hours already (very very unlikely)Stanley jonesFinancial officer Furcoins+1 (213) 632-4808

Cont. Update status

Jan. 10 – furcoins claims technical problem associated with my wallet which made the bitcoins sent to bounced back and reassured bitcoin will be in my wallet in the next 3 hours.

After more than additional 6 hours waiting, furcoins claims that my wallet is deactivated and my wallet is unable to accept transfer of bitcoins

I’ve been requesting several times already for a screen shot from furcoins system showing proof that furcoins indeed sent bitcoin in my wallet – furcoins won’t provide any at all

SUMMARY: still no bitcoin in my wallet (01/11/2018)

Should I be worried on such delays?
