The situation looks bleak indeed, i wouldnt have expected that from Simon.
On the other hand the majority voted for this option.

Now Simon has relaunched the site and seems to have no intention of refunding the remaining 28% of everyone of his previous customers.

The previous help forum has gone down too.

Is anyone taking further action on this?

I suppose they have much work with fiat withdrawals.
However, I have problems with bitcoins withdrawal. I asked for withdrawal of my bitcoins 9.11.2013, got the code for transfer, entered this code and waited for BTC to arrive. My ballance was reduced, but no bitcoins arrived. After one month, on 9.12 I opened a ticket #263? (last number omitted here) for this issue, but no response yet.

I have not uploaded any documents (not worth the small amount of fiat there), but I am also not asking for fiat, so this should be no problem.

I am already considering LEGAL action against him.
Save your money, i have a lawyer monitoring the situation in Poland and until the authorities release the money or even give access to records you dont even have grounds for a charge.

I'm getting impatient with Simon. I have a 5-figure EUR balance stuck in his exchange. He should update us ASAP even if there is not much new news to give. I am already considering LEGAL action against him.

Have you uploaded your verification documents? You have to do this to be able to withdraw.

So the new update sux!
I have been a vivid supporter of Simon until now, actually i still am, but his lawyers latest statement just makes me mad.
It basically says "There are few a few black sheep and because of them nobody will receive their money back in the foreseeable future. Oh and btw dont wait for any updates."
Also this was known to them for a long time and they didnt inform their customers.

I am considering hiring a real lawyer(cause theirs apparently isnt), who will get us some clarification.
And just to be clear, i am not looking to go after Simon, but rather the authorities.
Please PM me if you are ready to do so, too.

I appreciate that, but he must also appreciate how it looks to the outside world when he fails to reply to email and to support requests.  Yeah, I'm glad I'm not him right now... but sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between scammers and regulatory victims.  A little good faith communication (not just from his lawyers) would go a long way.

Regardless, I'm here to testify... it took some time, and a lot of insisting, but Simon came through!


He can't. He's probably under gag order from his lawyer. When I sent him an eMail, his lawyer wrote / called back (that was in the very early stages of this, and I have significant amounts on their Polish acc). After this - nothing. I can fully understand that.

I can hardly believe my eyes... but after *2 solid months* and innumerable unanswered emails and support requests to Simon, my transfer finally came through!


Don't act like that.
The guy has been in a REAL pinch, one that I don't wish upon anybody.
That this has been resolved halfway gracefully and decent with the help of the law can be viewed as a major, major success.

Got my BTC the day it was announced.

Although i doubt it will do you any good atm, they can simply claim that payouts are impossible due to matters beyond their control.
And all you gained is a bill from a Polish lawyer.

I did get my BTC, though not in 24 hours. It was close to 26.

Has anybody actually received the BTC that were promised to be transferred "within 24 hours"?  I made a transfer request some *6 weeks* ago, and, while the BTC did indeed disappear from my bitcoin24 account, I have yet to receive them.  All of my numerous attempts to contact Simon Hausdorf and bitcoin24 have been met with silence.  I've taken contact with RDP, the law firm representing him, who have been a bit more communicative, but they are equally unable to provide any insight as to the meaning or cause of this extreme delay in processing.

As this is not a small amount of money in question, I'm starting to consider legal action.  Has anybody been in touch with a German lawyer regarding this matter?

Just so its clear to everybody this concerns only funds that were wired to the German Commerzbank account between 09.04 and 12.04.
Which should be only a friction of the cash frozen there.

It's been 3 weeks and a few unanswered emails since I filed for my btc withdrawal, and no response, no btc yet. I'm really getting pissed now.

Still waiting for mine. It's been 25 hours which is a touch over the 24 they said but I'm willing to cut them some slack since things do appear to actually be moving.

Have you got them back? How much time has elapsed?

Yes. They arrived yesterday afternoon. I guess around 4 hours after I posted. That's good enough for me.

I'd be interested to know what they were worth when the site closed down but that part of the interface isn't available. I think they're up though.
