Hi folks. I appreciate all the replies and support on this. I want to make absolutely clear that I know I'm a moron for making this mistake and I take responsibility for it. It wasn't a King's ransom, but I'm not wealthy by any means so it isn't something I can just walk away from either. I appreciate that Bitinstant has promised to resolve it, but of course I'm still just waiting waiting waiting and haven't really heard if there is any progress or if I'm just screwed etc etc.

I suppose the 'bright side' to this is that my mistake exposes some weakness in the system that can be fixed. One thing I would suggest: once I 'submit' my Bitinstant form I get taken to the Trustcash part; however the Bitinstant form clears and there is no real order detail on Trustcash. It would help tremendously if the TC invoice read "You are depositing X amount into Y account and your email address is Z. Are you sure this information is correct?" If somebody (like me) makes a mistake there is really no way to tell until the money doesn't show up.

Actually I'm most disappointed with Gox. I contacted them immediately and they basically said it's not our problem. I wish they had at least offered to freeze the transaction amount or contact the account holder on my behalf until it's worked out.

Just want to get past this.
