A couple of days ago, I requested a cancellation of my withdrawals at Mt.Gox, and within 2 hours the withdrawal was cancelled and money returned. Bought Bitcoins again, and transferred them to Bitstamp for withdrawal on the fast lane... .. .

I have no idea what is going on there at Mt. Gox, but I have read so many people on this forum complaining about getting money out of Mt.Gox, so I guess Bitstamp will get more and more happy clients... .. .

If (after 2 weeks) you are tired of waiting for your withdrawal, my suggestion is to request a cancellation, instead of trying to get into an discussion about it. A cancellation is much quicker.

This is not normal and nobody should accept it!!!

And while we are at it, I believe a 1000 limit per day for Verified accounts is also too low. I know they have a trusted level. But for Verified, 1000 is too low. What's the use of being able to send out 1000 euro? If total bank costs/fees (both sides) are somewhere between 20-50 euro, that is between 2% and 5%. That's just silly. In my opinion they could leave the monthly limit at 10.000 euro, but make at least the day limit more than 1000 euro. The day limit automatically sets the fee for a withdrawal on any specific day to an uneconomical level....................ok.....breath again.............   Wink

MtGox will die if it cannot be trusted to return customers' money in a timely fashion.

My withdrawal (Int. Wire) is "confirmed" for almost two weeks now. My emails are not answered, instead they always reply the same bullshit ("we are sorry for any inconvenience bla bla bla), without responding to anything I have written before.
I am in the process of moving my money out of MtGox, and unnecessary to say that they will never see me again.
Somehow I blame this strange Karpelles character who I just cannot associate with competence and business skills at all.  

Got a bad feeling about this. Happy to see Bitstamp gaining volume.

Have now been waiting 5 days for an international wire. I had 3 other wires arrive after the first business day, but this one is taking forever...

That's worrying. The one I requested in 20 May arrived 22 May. The one I requested 30 May is still only "confirmed", not "processed".

MtGox will die if it cannot be trusted to return customers' money in a timely fashion.

I've been waiting 5 weeks for my SEPA withdrawal, I see I'm not alone.

If I don't get the money in a week I'm going to let debt collectors handle it. It's better I get half the money with debt collectors taking half as fees than nothing at all.

WITHDRAWAL: THE GATHERING

Bring your own pitchforks

Heh, I just found it funny that in a thread about a website that's called MAGIC THE GATHERING ONLINE EXCHANGE someone would title "[Gathering]".

So it's like


"BITCOIN WITHDRAWALS: THE GATHERING"



Delay {1BTC}{UU}
Instant
Put a bank-limit-counter on target customer with withdrawal.
Tap all creatures with a bank-limit-counter on them.
"...we apologize for any convenience caused..."

Karpeles, Reverse Banker of Gox Mountain {2BTC}{UUU}
Creature - Human Hobbyist Wannabe Banker
{UU}: Counter target withdrawal. Put a support token into play.
All support tokens have "this creature can block any amount of attacking customers."
"...all requests will be processed according to your place in the queue..."

I've been waiting for my 1000 € for 33 days now. It still says "up to 3 weeks" on their site (and it said 2 weeks around the time I made the withdraw).

I guess they're not out of money or anything, but these kinds of limits from their bank are ridiculous. Maybe they should try a proper bank, or is their business too shady to be accepted elsewhere?  Huh

Switched from SEPA to "International Wire" - exactly same shit since 8 business days now. (transferring EUR)

Uhm. I've got a feeling.

Liberty Reserve news came 5 days ago.
OkPay news also came 5 days ago.

Can anyone please confirm he/she successfully withdrew money through international transfer after that date?

I mean no FUD sorry I genuinely want to know.

Fees for international withdrawal were a total of about 60 USD (mtgox fee + my bank's fee).

Hardly anyone cares about your bank's fee. What did MtGox charge?

you'd think that if banks have a limit on the amount of funds they can send per day they'd open accounts with other banks.

Too much effort required. I don't get the impression running MtGox has its CEOs full attention.

Anyone has experience with MtGox wire transfer withdrawal (non-SEPA)?  What's the typical delay like?

USD wire to Australia ordered afternoon of 20th arrived morning of 22nd. They subtracted exactly $20 from the amount withdrawn, not 2000 yen.
