i have this problem, Awaiting Approval, waiting 48 rhs now...
Withdraw in BTC.

If huge amount it can be that long, but some exchanges took really long to approve withdrawal especially poloniex. Still maybe depend on value.

I hope it won't take more than 24 hours, sometimes they manually verify each and every transaction because whether the withdrawal has been made you or the different person. But definitely, they will process the withdrawal without any delays once they manually verify everything.

So I tried withdrawing my LTC a week ago and clicked approval email within 2mins, over a week now and it's still pending.

I decided to cancel the withdrawal.

Anyone else had a problem?

Lastly poloniex was response so fast in any withdrawals but lately when bitcoin together with the other crypto currencies fall down poloniex transactions will delay response. Maybe it is because of transactions fees, delayed of transaction due to traffic in blockchain or any other matters happen in crypto industry. I guess it will gonna be okay so be patience in waiting.

After confirming the mail which you get from the poloniex. Soon they will process the withdrawal but for some time it will take more than 2 hours to process the withdrawal.

As far as I know after getting mail from the Poloniex once you confirm the mail then they will send your withdrawal automatically. I never experience any problem like this before because after confirming I am getting my withdrawal fastly.

If you experience "Awaiting Approval" status, then you are advised to verify your account using your scanned passport or ID Card issued by your country along with your photo while holding your passport / ID Card. Because i have experienced it a year ago, then i verify. 3 days later, my withdrawal went well until now.

As I see so many requests, it looks like withdrawels are processed manually. Maybe technical or financial problems could be the reasons. Or ETH itself could have transfer issues.
Hope, poloniex will become again the good exchanger, as it was. Hope that it will not turn into scam.

so in total 19 hours and it has been sent. Not ideal but most importantly they do send the funds. And I didn't send an email and raised the issue. I think they have been overwhelmed themselves with how quick they have grown. I think they will catch up soon and they will get even better. I wish I could invest in them. Obviously I am a newbie and clueless.

Ok so far I have been waiting for 16 hours after using the confirmation email. Withdrawal is waiting for approval. 0.6 btc. the sum is small and there is no red flag or anything wrong it seems. It has happened before. I use mainly Bittrex, cryptopia and bitstamp for this reason. I would like to trade more on Poloniex but my own experience and the comments from other users prevent me from doing so. Of course I would be happy if they can manage to do it in 24 hours but if one does need the funds quickly somewhere else than poloniex wouldn't be my first choice. Apart of that I have never had a problem with Poloniex and will keep using them when I am not in a great hurry for withdrawals.

It would be nice if people could give us some success stories, like how long it took total, and that they received their funds??? I'm also waiting withdrawal 5.5 days. I'm a long time user (years) and did not have 2fa plus, it'd been a while and my computer had broken down since the last time I used them. I had to reset my password. BUT I got no warning and didn't know they were having trouble or I would not have used them!

Anyway, if people could post " I got mine after 8 days" "I got mine after 10 days" It would give us an idea as to how long our wait will be

and may go a ways in making us feel less horrible (well, it would me)

Thanks

A lot have been having the same problems with Poloniex, it's either the blockchain is too congested that it is causing traffic or there really is something wrong with withdrawing coins from Poloniex. Just keep on sending tickets until they'll hear you out because I made a withdrawal too and it is showing the same thing until now. Don't know for how long their "Awaiting Approval" will be.

I have the same issue, waited now over 3 days.

The Poloniex customer support-system is completely broken, including "approval within 24 hours" for withdrawals.
Their long waiting periods for "flagged" withdrawals are way too long, and the customer-service needs to speed up their response time!

UPDATE: As explained here, it seems like they are aware and working on the issue. (https://poloniex.com/press-releases/2017.05.16-Industry-growth-and-its-effect-on-Poloniex/)

there support responding is very slow I've also requested for 2 level verification and after a week I've submitted a support ticket but still, no answer.im also wondering why they disable chat box, did they got hacked or converting into latest spam,

Did a BTC withdrawal 6/6/2017. After nothing changed in the Awaiting for Approval status, I opened a ticket in 24 hours after confirming the withdraw in my email.
Still haven't got any response.
I even did a another smaller withdraw 2 days after that, and it went through normally.
I can't recommend using this exchange if you want to have no risks.

So far I have been waiting a day and a half with no response other than auto generated responses. My coin is sitting in the withdrawal- I had grabbed some SC and DGB to trade off at bittrex and get some mid term growth coin after a quick profit. Well the profit window slammed shut and then the value began dropping and dropping. I've been doing all I can to get an actual person but it's worse than the cable company.
In value I am down .059 btc or in todays market about $175, that does not cover the lost time investing and that's considerable. Im losing purchasing power by the minute as the coin I am waiting to buy are creeping up. No one answers at polo. I will never go near polo again as long as I am trading. I started a portfolio today on cryptocompare showing what I could invest in with whats left now vs what my funds are worth while waiting. I'll be making those public so feel free to come have a look @ bctrader on cryptocompare. The portfolios will be removed once my fiunds are safely returned

Don't worry, Polo is a very big and reputable company. I figure it'll be pretty soon.

DON'T USE POLONIEX!!!

I have been waiting for 80 hours for a withdrawal.
No communication, no message no nothing.

I think this is a bad bad sign.

The story is they are too busy... But they don't allow you to cancel the unexecuted withdrawal.
So they stick you in a position. You can lose a lot of money.
It is totally dodgy, bad way of handling the situation.

It smells.

For those who don't remember, when an exchange's behavior starts to smell, don't use it.
Just think Gox.

I will never use Poloniex again. Even if their price has 1% differential. This just stinks.

I've just successfully withdrawn some bitcoin today - it went through smoothly, as normal.

However, I've had an account with Polo since 2014, and don't use VPN's and tend to withdraw to the same address each time. This might be why their algo is automatically approving all my withdrawals.

For the new member of Polo: you need to establish a track record before they automatically approve all your withdrawals. Also, don't use VPN's.

Poloniex has in their terms and conditions that withdrawal is within twenty four hours. When I make my last withdrawal last time it take less than 10 minutes and my wallet was credited. My advise to you is to be patient for the 24 hours to elapsed and if you did not receive your payment then know that something went wrong.

Out of curiosity, what coin are you trying to withdraw? I had this happen once when I made a withdraw of a large amount of DASH (like 50 or so). There was no explanation for why it was held up and after about 12 hours it went through. That was maybe a month ago for me. Today and yesterday I was able to withdraw DASH (close to 2k USD both times) very quickly.

I am not going to use the "I" word but I have to say the resemblance to cryptsy's last days is disturbing and only growing more so.

I had been experienced just like this before that my withdrawal still on process over than 24 hours and usually this is happening because your poloniex account wasn't use for trading that's why they will investigate your account but nothing to worry if their contact support already respond your problem usually your withdrawal will approve soon

i think its depend on how busy the network to process the withdrawals because sometimes when i made withdrawals, i don't waited too long and its completed in just 10 minutes, but the other time, its need almost 2 hours. beside that, we need to think about how much poloniex process for many withdrawals in the same day with us.

I hope it won't take more than 24 hours, sometimes they manually verify each and every transaction because whether the withdrawal has been made you or the different person. But definitely, they will process the withdrawal without any delays once they manually verify everything.
