not counting any of the coins i have in hardware wallets...

i had 100 coins in a wallet on my pc, after the conversion of exporting and importing keys i got 670 coins... not the 1000 that i was expecting, but still, free money, so not complaining...

however tonight i went to my dads house, and i have built him an electronic money portfolio for his retirement.. he had 268 LTC coins in a wallet on his pc.  i moved the coins to a hardware wallet and exported the key, it really is a simple wallet, with 1 address and has never been used.. the coins have been there for 2 years..
so after moving the coins for my dad i repeated the same process and after importing i got 650 coins??  wtf?  he was supposed to get 2680 if they are doing a 10x drop... so i dont care about me not getting my share, but i am really disappointed that my dad didn't get his...

when he asked me who i can speak to regarding the issue, i laughed to myself and said "nobody".. his words "this is why this electronic money thing is never going to replace our existing system."

in a way i understand and agree with him.. but i also know that he is wrong, and it will..

either way my thoughts on this coin are that it will probably exist for awhile, because it bears the name litecoin...  but if there is nothing i can do but "take it on the chin" and accept that 1800 coins that my dad was supposed to get are "gone".. then im done with this coin and also have no intention on recommending it to anyone moving forward..

Sadly I have the Exact Same Experience.

I was very excited to receive this appliance, even at 1.6 it is still a nice system.

Worked great for about 2 days.

Now I hash at 1.3 average.

Truthfully support is so overwhelmed and is given Nothing to actually help the customer, or provide compensation.

It seems some units are fine, others have issues.. not sure if its poor quality parts or design flaws.

All I know is i've tried every firmware version available and also some "custom packages" they assembled for me after having a heart to heart with one of the 3 or 4 actual engineers they staff over at CT.

Im an engineer by trade, but don't want to break the seals on the box in case it gets worse and I Need to RMA it.

CTA 0 is no issues runs a little over 800.
CTA 1 runs at 500 because 3 cores do not come online.

Newer firmware indicates that no voltage is being delivered to these cores.  not sure what can be done other than RMA.  

This really doesn't make sense the way that they go about doing it.  it could take 3 weeks to get the unit back.  at that point you have lost significant profits that you will never recoup.  All this, and NO compensation or even understanding from CT about how disappointed I am over the experience with them.  its really a sign that they are after short term riches, and not long term wealth.  

Shame considering how far they came, only to fail... They may not survive this if they burn every bridge and have all these people talking negative about them.

I will let you know how my story ends.  Im still waiting for support to call me back...  I sound like every other poor soul here waiting for CT to step up and do the right thing.

Summary to date:

What I actually Paid for:  2th
I was Forced to Accept:  1.6th
What I actually got:       1.3th

Im going to TRY to be optimistic about the outcome..

I wish you the best of luck.  Hopefully your issues will sort out soon.
