sorry, but there are any news about SEPA account?i'm waiting about 3 month to withdraw my money...this waiting is unacceptable


How is trade still the number 2 exchange by volume when this is happening?
How is mtgox still the number 1 when they don't allow SEPA withdrawal either?

No wonder. Europeans on average pay VERY high energy costs. So, they won't be a large enough group to play a more prominent role.

To my surprise, I looked this up and it is true!

Although in the UK, France, and eastern Europe, the cost is much lower, which is why I never noticed.  Also I am not convinced that Europeans need to be able to mine profitably in order to use bitcoins.

They probably don't have a bank that allows them to do SEPA.

Can someone please explain to me what's the point in removing support for sepa withdrawals? Afaik sepa is reversible and that's why it makes sense not to use it for deposits, but what could I do when withdrawing, return the money? It makes no sense.

Good news!  We had been awaiting physical receipt of the banking tools, which arrived today!  We have faxed receipt confirmation back to the bank, who will then enable the banking capabilities.  After some test transfers, we'll be opening the SEPA transfer method back up for Deposits and Withdrawals, prioritizing any pending requests in the system.  We understand the frustration, obviously this has taken much longer than the anticipated timeline.  However this option should be available in a matter of days!

Just did my first trade there. This site is not as comfortable as MtGox or Tradehill but as long they are the only ones offering SEPA I won't mind.
Any suggestions?

As I don't want to hijack this thread I'll send you a PM.

Seems the Tradehill people lost their interest in bitcoin. At least by judging their activities lately...


Intersango's SEPA account has been open this entire time.

Mtgox offers SEPA deposits for verified accounts only.

I don't know what people are talking about in this thread. Mt. Gox has had SEPA ever since the big update. It's only deposits so I do understand the problem if you are looking for ways to withdraw. They should be adding SEPA withdraw any day now though.

www.bitstamp.net offers sepa transfers. There is not much liquidity, but I noticed that there are more buy orders than sell orders. If you want to sell bitcoins and withdraw to SEPA account, bitstamp is very good place to do it (you will probably get more for your bitcoins). If you want to buy bitcoins you will have to wait some time for someone to sell.

Take a look at their order book...

I have used the exchange several times and I had no problems with getting my money in and out (like I had with mtgox).

And just FYI to quote the SEPA rulebook.

SEPA transfers should be available again in a matter days.

Well, how do you know exactly? We were told it's "a matter of days only" and "we've given all the paperwork to the bank" few weeks ago.

I have relationships with many of the exchange owners, wallet makers, and bitcoin entrepreneurs: I asked.

I've found an alternative in the meantime. Try bitmarket.eu - it's less comfortable, but the money transfer works directly, w/out an intermediary. Best part: no commission!
