Same. Bought gold didn't get it. Here is chat log:
Helena: Allow me to introduce myself as your chat representative...

Guy: Hi

Helena: hi

Guy: I paid for the so called gold

Guy: So called gold which I did not receive

Guy: your website says "It will take 10-30 minutes generally according to different purchase amounts."

Helena: May i know your character name in game ?

Guy: Arlex

Helena: let me see

Guy: I am in Exodar now

Guy: And I filled in Killrog alliance which I am

Helena: k

Guy: So what's going on?

Helena: waiting the reply of the worker

Guy: ok

Guy: So?

Helena: waiting

Guy: weird, thats kinda what I was getting as answer all day

Helena: so sry

Guy: do you have refunds?

Guy: since I did not get anything over past 7 hours

Guy: and doesn't seem like I will

Helena: Im not authorized to refund.My boss is not here now, we will leave a message for you to him, as soon as he is back, he will deal with your payment.

Guy: unfortunately I just checked complaints website. and you are on it. I guess I should've checked that before

Helena: ok

Guy: Is that what you always do? Make people to wait forever? (that's what I saw in reviews)

Guy: I mean whole day I was getting same reply

Guy: It's a bit weird

Helena: we didnt mean to

Helena: if we have the golds for u, we wil deliver to u at once

Guy: thats if you have, if you don't I lose my money basically?

Helena: we didnt lose money of yours here, we take care of it

Guy: except I don't get what I pay for. and you keep it

Guy: good thing paypal has protection

Helena: k

Guy: I am even sure you are the same person I was talking in morning

Helena: i just on work here two hours

Helena: how we can talk then?

Guy: Well because everything you reply is same as the guy in morning

Guy: can you give me number of your "boss"

OK ! then i guess we'v all had enough...does anyone have website constuction equipment or software etc? form a site and link it to a facebook group newly made and unite all the complaints. copy and paste it to paypal and google admin...they will remove the site and hopefully refund you all. I got my gold but i never thought there was so much possibility that i could of so easilly ripped off with it being a sponsered link on my search engine (google)
Thnks for all your info

I ordered 10k to just test them for my bigger buys, before i order i asked them if they have enough and if they can deliver it in a day, they gave me a positive answer like they had 40-50k and they could deliver it in a day. So i ordered and waited. After 5 hours i got a call to get online, i got online and they gave me just the half, when i asked to them they said they don't have enough to make all the payment, and i should wait for the other half. I waited for a day more and i tried to contact everytime. Just like the other complaints they always told me to wait and my information that i gave them..

After i opened a dispute on Paypal i got a call from them, and they would deliver the gold if i can remove dispute. I got onilne and they delivered other half just in 5 minutes.

I believe they got the gold but they want to work it more that's why they don't make the payments immidiately. If anyone make an order from them i should say, they must open a dispute if they want it quick...

I can say they need to get reported to deliver it X_X

I waited a week. Had several emailcontacts (they promise but couldn't deliver). After made a paypalcomplaint and a week later i elevated te dispute to an official complaint. Then they delivered the full amount in three different amounts. I won't ever contact them again. They're a shame...

They even called me at night; on work etc...but didn't deliver...

i order some gold before, as u can see ^ it took them 5 days, constantly said they were waiting and account got banned blah blah. after 3 days i was really angry and threw verbal abuse at them. it made me feel good lol. they could of told me to get stuffed by then. but 2 days later i got a phone call and my gold was in stock. so that made me reconsider. maybe what they were syaing is true? i mean tbh how fast do YOU get gold ? pritty hard to summong 15k in 2 secs. after they gave me my gold they apologized for the wait. and i also apologized for not understanding.

maybe we should all just give them some time? they pulled through for me.

Same thing happened to me. At first they kept saying they had to confirm my identity, please e-mail them my cell phone number. I kept saying thats what you told me last time and I sent it again. They would say they never got it and I would say YES you did, because you replied to my e-mail. Every time I connected to customer service all I got was a circular runaround. It was obvious that something was wrong. Real companies do not do these things. Then finally I get a call from them at 4:20 A.M. asking me to go online so they can give me 1000 gold. I said I did not pay for 1000, I paid for 5000. I refused to take a partial payment, because by this point I was afraid that would be all I ever saw and then I would not be able to do anything about it. They kept calling me and contacting me in-game for days wanting to give me just the 1000. I told them that their web site said immediate delivery, 24/7 and not to contact me if they could not give me all that I had paid for. They never were able to give me the full 5000. I will say that I feel lucky that I chose to do a test run for the 5000 with them, because I really wanted 20K but was not going to give them that much money initially until they showed me that I could trust them. Fail.

I have the same issues with this company. They tell you the gold is in stock but after you put in the order, they say we have to wait 2-24 hours to get the delivery. So I waited the next day they only give me 5% of what I orderd, the next day after that, another 5%. Two days after the last delivery, nothing. I went to their chat live and spoke with "ocean", "Judy" and "Michael", which I think its all the same person. "Ocean" said they will put in a rush order and will get my gold that day. Low and behold..Nothing. So today I spoke with "judy". I asked her when I wil get the rest of my gold, she said "a sec", so waited 10 minutes, and told me that there is no gold. I don't think they are doing anything about it within the 10min hold and pretend they are looking into it..because its always the same script over and over. The bottom line is they are alway lie me and others.

If I pay full, shouldnt they give me in full? I feel like I'm being ripped off and cannot do anything about it. I did pay through paypal, but I'm not familiar of what do in this matter. If anyone is going through the same issue, perhaps we can get together and work this out? I'm just frustrated as anyone else on this board.

I just want to say again that they are very good Liers!

Please go here to report them for paypal: https://www.paypal.com/ewf/f=pps_spf

Yes, this site is horrible.. I talk with them on live chat before the order..I asked if they had 20 mil in stock. they said yes..and it take about 2 - 24 hours to get the gold..the next day I only got 1.6mil, than 1.7 mil the next day..after that havent heard anything. I went back on the chat live and they said they will contact the workers to keep some gold for me..so far its been 2 hours and havent heard anything. I payed through paypal and I'm giving them a couple of more days, if not I wil find anyway to report them for file some kind of complaint.

I paid $65 for 10, 000 gold 4 days ago. To date, I have received 800 gold. The difference between me and previous comments? I will continue to aggravate them until I get mine. I recommend using their live chat feature constantly. Apparently that's the only way these scamming ### will listen.
