Requested refund of my deposit June 2, 2107. No communication as of yet. Also disputing the charge with my credit card company. Tried to dispute through PayPal, but they are resisting so far. My guess is they feel they cannot get anything back from Heighway, so they are going to drag their feet on each case.

Really wanted this to work out, and I still hope they get this turned around so I can jump back in.

Yep, Alien just started rolling off the line, and Stern is charging 25K for the pro model of the 75th installment of Star Wars, the final movie where we find out it was a dream and Luke didn't really shoot J.R. (sorry if I spoiled the ending for anyone)

Keep in mind folks with all of the credit card chargebacks, they are going to have a "credit rating" hole to dig out of which compounds their financial issues. If they are working purely with their own capital, then they are probably ok. But if they need to secure any financing, that will be an uphill battle with the same company name. I would have thought it would have been easier for them to dissolve the original company and form a new LLC for credit rating purposes alone.

Yea, except patience in some cases can cost you a bunch of money. You either have to make a decision to wait this out and leave your money in play, or do all you can to get your money back. If you wait for them to respond, you can run over time limits for chargebacks, and then you are just at their mercy. I understand them wanting to get information out to the masses to calm folks down, but they should not have told people they would get refunds if they want them. I think that was an under-estimation of how pissed folks are, and how they would react. They would have been better off avoiding that whole subject until they have the company sewn up. But I also don't buy the "it's taking weeks to get through the legal paperwork" excuse either unless they are still not quite telling the truth. They claim to be financing this with private funds, but a basically cash deal for a company isn't that hard.....there is more to this. Even if it was taking forever to get the paperwork in place, they could still be doing refunds if they are as flush with cash as they claim.
