Title: 24 hours, 80+ confirmations, and BTC still not showing in my SR address
Post by: oinkfat on October 19, 2012, 10:58 pm
So I have a SR address that is nearly a year old, and I transferred 23+ btc to my SR address

14K5txMuPXM6kDC3W5ZTmg5qzGA6Z8n5qY

And I still don't see the coins.  Something is wrong because blockchain and blockexplorer both show the transaction complete and there's been well over 80 confirmations.

I sent multiple PMs to SR support yesterday but they have been unable to read the messages.  Could someone please help me?

Also, the address is a year old.  Should I try changing addresses or would that be a bad idea during this time of purgatory bitcoin transfer?

quote from a current thread
"Deposit Won't Appear

Deposits into your SR wallet will typically be fairly quick, but they can sometimes, much less often, process very slowly, taking upwards of 24 hours. So feel free to message Support, but don't freak out too early. If your coins don't appear within reasonable time, message Support with the receiving address used on the deposit and how much it was.

I'm Not Getting a Response from RC Staff

The RC staff will see your transaction in the center after it comes due, when they get through the transactions before it.

We have the EXACT same problem but with a much larger BTC deposit.

Don't worry, we are 100% CERTAIN that DPR and the SR Support team will resolve it asap.

EnterTheMatrix I am sorry to hear you have the same issue as myself.

Hopefully this is worked out sooner than later.  I'm just surprised it's been 72 hours and still no response from SR support team.

Eh, that problem again...

I tried to add new address, but this somehow didn't work. So I sent BTC to my old SR address. >12 confirmations and still nothing (6 is sufficient). Hope this issue will be resolved ASAP.

I have the same problem. More than 3 days and no btc  :( The problem is that it is my first time on SR and this is not a good way to start =) But knowing that even experienced users have the same problems calms me down. Hope SR support will answer asap.
Nice time of the day to everyone
Love

Mine are not appearing, also.

The worst part of it is that I have to watch the last of BoyMaster's permium amphetamine sell out in front of my eyes. It's probably the saddest thing I've ever had to watch.

It's like watching Bambi's mother die while your grandma simultaneously tells you that there's no Sant Claus. Only worse.

So I changed my address, and did another $300 transaction to my new address (I know, risky) and it worked.

I still haven't received my initial $300 to my old address but at least I was able to purchase.

I'm just going to quote one of my previous posts in order to save time:

There have been many instances in the past where users hit 'get a new address' before their Bitcoin has shown up in their SR Account and their account hasn't been credited. To remedy this they have to contact SR Support with the details of the transfer (address, time, amount etc.) and wait for SR Support to credit their account. SR Support are very busy at the best of times, so this can sometimes take a couple of days.

Silk Road uses an internal wallet system to move user's money around; technically all previous addresses used by you can still be used to credit your account, though as I stated above, there can sometimes be problems with using new addresses to send more Bitcoin before the Bitcoin you previously sent has arrived. Some users have also experienced problems sending Bitcoin to their old addresses.

I would recommend that you transfer your Bitcoin to your SR account, wait for it to be credited, then hit 'get a new address' and transfer the next lot. You always want to hit 'get a new address' before making a transfer in order to eliminate the possibility of any problems the likes of which have been experienced by some other members.

- grahamgreene

Always hit 'get a new address' before transferring Bitcoin to your Silk Road account.
Always wait for that transfer to arrive before hitting 'get a new address' again and sending more Bitcoin to your SR account's new wallet address.
If you have a problem send ONE message to SR Support detailing the amount of the transaction, the date, the approximate time, and the from / to addresses.
Do not bombard SR Support with messages about the same issue. If it appears 'unread' in your Sent folder it is possible that it has been read using the 'Bulk Reply' feature, but just not yet responded to.
If after 5 days your issue has not been resolved, send another message reminding SR Support that you have an 'open ticket' with them.

I like the changing address idea I'm gunna try it. I don't know how many of you have seen this, probably most of you, but anyways I'll post a link to the SR support page that explained some things for me, hopefully it will help someone out.

Ill soon be reaching the 96 hour mark without BTC since transaction or response from SR support.  I'm starting to get frustrated.  Maybe since I sent more than 1 message to SR support they're getting back at me :P

Really wish I'd get this seen by someone that can help.

I just want those motherfuckingcoinsdamnit.

My account has been credited as of this morning. I changed the address and sent some more bitcoins which transferred in only a few hours. Everything seems to be working fine now. Thanks to the SR Support.

shit im on hour 14 and bugging i hope i dont have to wait as long as you oinkfat


Just be patient and as long as you sent SR Support a message you will eventually get your coins.

I think the key to this whole thing is getting a new BTC address before you even deposit BTC in to a brand new account and getting a new address after every deposit.
