EDIT: fyi - that was the video in real time. All I did was add in a title so you know what the video is about. You can even see the "pulse" that comes off of the weekly heroic's icon, indicating that I just finished the activity.
So I just got screwed over (yet again). Here I was, trying to run the weekly heroic with my titan. I kept joining matches with idle people, and I'm not a backpacking Sherpa, so I quit out. I think I quit and rejoined joined my 3rd or 4th match, but apparently, it allowed me to join a group who was already finished & must've received their rewards because as I was joining in, I saw someone quit out. I thought, "great, here's another match I'm gonna have to quit out of", but what really happened was that the system allowed me to join a match that was already in the countdown process after the fallen priest was killed & everyone was given their rewards. Ya know how some people won't wait til the timer hits zero at the end of a strike? Well, 2 of the 3 quit by the time zero hit, then all of a sudden, the rewards screen popped up, but my reward was blank!! Okay, not a problem... I'll just run it and hope that I don't get stuck at the end like that again.... but what happened?? The system counted it as a completion, so when I tried to reselect the weekly, it now shows as though I received my rewards!! WHAT TOTAL BS!! I have to keep quitting out of matches because of idle kids looking for a free ride (you still shouldn't of put matchmaking on weekly heroics Bungie), but when I finally get into another match, I get screwed because the buggy matchmaking allowed me to join during the countdown, even though it's not supposed to?? COME ON BUUNGIE!!!! We are basically done with year one, and dumb bugs like this are still in play??
Again and again.... I'm trying to give you the benefit of the doubt, but yet again, my confidence gets shattered. That's now 9 coins and xp that I'll never get back because of this dumb bug.
Oh and I added the video as proof.

I just ended up having the same thing happen to me. But instead of it happening after attempting to join a few weekly heroic strikes, it occurred on my first attempt. Apparently when I went searching for a party to do it with, I got grouped up with people who had just finished it as I joined their party. I never even got to leave my ship before the strike was complete. I never received my 9 strange coins not did I get any engrams. So I attempted to run the strike again thinking that I might get my items. Well I ran it again and still got nothing. How can we get our strange coins that we robbed of?
