Hello Bitcoiners,

I just withdrawed about 200 dollars as usual per SEPA withdrawal to my German bank account. It was finished on the 7th of April. So it should've been there yesterday, on the 8th of April. But there was nothing. Today, the 9th of April, also nothing. Should I start get worried ? Anyone else with similiar problems in the last time?

Every other time it was just one day. Now this. What is going on? Am I smelling a new Mt.Gox?

Stay away from real time exchanges like BitStamp, BTC-e. Move towards direct trading ones like www.LocalBitcoins.com or www.100bit.co.in.

First: I get it. Everyone of us has an uncomfortable feeling when leaving either coins or cash on the exchanges, after all the previous fiascoes.

That said: This is pretty clearly not (yet) "the same thing that happened at gox". Can't believe even some hero members aren't above that kind of bullshit fear-mongering.

In gox' case, we didn't have a withdrawal delay of a few days once every month or two like here, but actually hundreds of cases, collected in one giant thread. And people still happily sent money to them. Now that was rather sad.

In my experience, cash withdrawals from Bitstamp are semi-fast, but there's a bit of variance: 1-2 business days for Bitstamp/SEPA is fast, but I've also had to wait ~ 3-4 days in the past.

I'd suggest to write a support ticket now (simply asking if they are working on the withdrawal), then wait until Monday or Tuesday (don't count on either Bitstamp or your bank doing anything on the weekend). If by Tuesday evening you still don't have the money, post an update here, if you want.

Interesting... let's see if this turns out to be just variance or if there really is something wrong with Stamp. I always liked them and really felt bad for the incident back in January...

No stay away from Bitstamp.

Yeah I noticed, I am sorry for that.

Nothing wrong with speculating if you'll get your money... Cheesy

Perhaps your bank is insolvent, happend before, they are guaranteed to operate with fractional reserves.

Why not use Kraken?

Withdraw everything, or you will lose your money like OP! Bitstamp = Gox.

As I said, normally with SEPA and Bitstamp it is one day. When I withdraw the money in the morning before 11 am, it will get processed on the same day and on the NEXT day I have it on my German bank account.

Now 3 days delay but it was processed on the 7th of April, nothing on my bank account today again. And since yesterday no answer from the support.

Ok. Bitstamp definitely doesn't have the money to pay you. It is like Gox. Sorry but your money will not arrive.

Everyone please withdraw all your money from shit exchange Bitstamp!

It's always taken 2 or 3 days for sepa transfers from Bitstamp to show up on my bank account.

yeah, it's not a problem if your withdrawal quest less than a week
