I have already done all the authentication checks i was asked to do, I have DMed minerjones . I have posted my refund address like I was asked
I don't recall anybody asking you to post your refund address, besides, all of these things need to go through an official route with the service you used, not on the forum.
One thing you seem to not understand or pretend to not understand is that as far as Whirlwind is concerned, you lost your private key -- your funds are lost. at least this is what you signed up for.
They are under no obligation to refund you anything even if you signed a message from the sending address, you really have to understand that before anything else, they did not promise to refund you anything and fix your mistake for you, they only asked for "community opinion" which again, they don't have to follow.
So it isn't a case of "whether they would refund you the $200 worth of
BTC or not", this is a case of a major change in their policy, if they do that for you, they will have to do the same for all other future cases, this is not an easy change and would require the right resources to implement, so this isn't about you, it doesn't revolve around you, it's them and their policy, not sure why you expect that to happen in a few days, it's just stupid.
You keep accusing them of scam, and you went as far as accusing the community members of standing against you for financial gains, nobody in the signature campaign has to post on this topic, in fact, the vast majority of people who wear the signature never posted a thing here, a few of us who engaged in this conversation could have ignored you all together, the only reason I responded to your case was the fact that Whirlwind made it clear from the start that they would like to hear the community opinions, otherwise, your case isn't worth all the discussion, you lost your private key (your story of how you lost it is irrelevant) and thus your coins are gone for good.
You should really stop with your self-entitlement, the only thing you rightfully deserve is an email from Whirlwind saying (" Sorry, according to our rules, if you lose your private keys we have no way of refunding you" ), anything more than that is not within your rights, so stop demanding.
Yes they should refund to deposit address, if support was contacted fast enough, deposit address signed or if they had downtime issues. then they should end the need to need the note key if you are still on the active session, chipmixer had a
In my support email I was still on the page , and asked if i could see the note key if i used the browser back button but i was ignored till today, 11 days now
