Sent them some Bitcoins four days ago, and received a pending confirmation right away. Then nothing

A day ago emailed them, and received no reply.

Now what? Keep waiting or write it off as bad experience and book somewhere else?

Travelforcoins website has been online since March 2013, https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=157948.0

They do run a couple of other websites.

i dont see any profit to be made for them.
the fee($2) is just too small.
and even their exchage rate is much higher than mt.gox. now at $135.

Just came across this thread.... Thanks guys. haha.

Well, FWIW, travel for coins is owned by the same company that owns giftsforcoins, pizzaforcoins, and billpayforcoins.

Here is some reddit threads of happy experiences. I would urge you to find negative reviews anywhere as we have never had an unhappy customer....

Giftforcoins user hasn't been online since April 2014. They do have a couple of positive reviews, but about four years ago.

They have been listed on bitcoin directories and about four months ago cryptocoinnews has mentioned travelforcoins in their article, https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/9-things-didnt-know-buy-bitcoin/

Since you already emailed them and no response, try to contact them through Facebook or their Twitter handle, http://www.travelforcoins.com/contact.php

If you don't get any response move this thread to scam accusations. If travelforcoins is indeed scam and since they have been listed on many bitcoin related websites, it would prevent others from getting scammed.
