Personally, I'd say yes. They illegally took money from my Stormpay account and returned it to the place it came from. I did not ask them to do it, and neither did the other party. They will not acknowledge they have done anything wrong and will not return the money. They will not even enter into a discussion about it for that matter.
Fortunately, my credit card company were able to reverse one transaction I did to them, but it still left me a few hundred pounds down. Since I did that, they have locked me out of my account.

I'm not the only one this happened to, it happened to thousands of people. Stormpay are being investigated in the US, I believe. They also have a bit of a history doing questionable things (I wish I'd known that before). I think someone is trying to organise a class action suit against them.

A lot of the e-currencies are in trouble at the moment (EMO is another one that recently got shut down by the SEC in the US for not having enough cash to cover it's members deposits).
The only one you can really trust is probably Paypal.
