SEPA (6.5k) from 2013/09/18 Status: pending
hooray!
16th yesterday and 18th today.  Queue is getting shorter as predicted!  Let's hope this continues for at least a week until withdrawals from the beginning of October start processing.

In other news: From reading through some #mtgox logs, it looks like MtGox's Japanese bank has a withdrawal limit as well.  About 1 million USD/day.  (Probably 100 mill JPY.)  The limit applies to USD manual withdrawals as well.  (Manual transfer requires one USD to JPY conversion, JPY withdrawal, and JPY back to USD, which is the reason for the high fee.)  The JPY volume has been close to 4 million USD worth the last week alone, and withdrawal capacity 5 million USD / week.  This means the JPY hose is running close to full capacity (practically all JPY volume has been selling BTC, buying JPY for withdrawal and arbitrage), and is the probable cause of JPY withdrawal delays and the reported delays for manual withdrawals.  I am by no means certain of this, but it does explain a few things.  It means MtGox's total withdrawal capacity is about 25 million USD/month.

Also arrived today, really strange... it seems once a sepa withdraw changes its state to "pending", it is quickly processed by the polish bank and deposited successfully on the target account within hours!!!

Also I must mention that the 'arrived' amount is exactly 99.0001% of the 'withdrawn' amount, i.e. the mtgox's fee is exactly 1%, rounded down

You should have bought a Yubikey. Or do you e-banking with your regular bank without 2FA?

Yay!  A new data point, and it means the queue is moving faster again.  I was worried it would grow to more than six weeks since it took so long getting past the 13th.  Let's hope the queue shortens a bit the following week, because I fear there will be another speed bump when the payments reaches the end of the first week of October.

What is "Premium" status?

Quote
and your account has been upgraded to a Premium account (This is the new name of the "Trusted" status).
The new word for trusted status (where you have to send them a notarized copy of your ID and utility bill with an apostille). This makes it possible to withdrawal up to 100k per day. See https://support.mtgox.com/entries/21651045-AML-Account-Statuses



AHH Okay thanks. I thought it was just Verfieid then Trusted. Back when I sent in docs, there was no premium status.

My withdraw limit is 100k a day though.

If you still sale on MtGox even if you know withdrawal takes up to 2 months it's your fault.
Take the lower price on other exchanges if this is a problem for you. You all know that since months.

Beside withdrawal the support is very friendly and fast (I got Trusted (now Premium) status and the Yubi-Key within a few days.)
I'm not affiliated with gox, just my opinion and experience with them.

All 6 posts about MtGox - and how great they are.

Fuck off, MtGox sock puppets ...
Thank you for pointing this out.
Now I ignored both of them.
