From the Alpha-T forums : apparently some Alpha-T customers received this email today:

Hello,

Whilst you are passed our refund period we are able to refund you your full 30% deposit as a gesture of goodwill. Please understand this has been no small undertaking and the vast majority of the funds have now gone into the production of these devices and to expect anything higher this late in the process is not realistic as the funds simply aren't there.

If you paid via a bank transfer/bitcoin please provide your bank details if you agree to this full and final settlement and if you paid via PayPal simply confirm you agree to this full and final settlement. For an international bank we will need an IBAN and/or an account number, a swift code and/or your banks address, your account name and address. Please try to provide all or as much of this information as possible in case we run into any issues to save us from having to email again to ask for it. For a UK bank we will only need your account number, sort code, your account name and address.

Regards,

Alpha Technology

There seems to be some doubt what this means for customers who paid 100%. It reads to me like Alpha-T are in legal damage control mode now.

oh I thought was a gesture of goodwill. now it's a "full and final settlement."

never saw that coming. \sarcasm

These pusbags are as predictable as can be. They know they're up shit's creek with their silly "you're a business" defense. They likely have few if any parts (I haven't seen photos of any) and are likely simply going to fade away.

This is a logical step in a scam. Pay back 30% of what you've taken from people, call it a full and final settlement in an attempt to strip them of any rights going forward and then pocket the remainder.

I do hope people organize and take these people to court.
