Title: International Money Transfers Post by: promaori on June 14, 2011, 11:29:07 AM Hi everyone,
I have recently begun my mining endeavours and have intentions on transferring my hard earned bitcoins into my currency. Can anyone offer some tips on money transfer from bitcoin to USD using MT. Gox, then from USD to my currency? I have thought about creating a US bank account, but unsure of how much currency loss is due to fees from such a painful method of trading currencies.

You can withdraw directly from mtgox to your bank account, your bank will automatically exchange it for the currency your account is denominated in. Check with your bank for conversion fees. What country are you in? Title: Re: International Money Transfers Post by: promaori on June 14, 2011, 11:56:08 AM New Zealand. And also, how do I go about this?

Using MT Gox, you can do a USD to EURO direct deposit by supply details to a Foreign Currency Call Account with BNZ. Talk to your bank regarding the specific details of this account. But Telegraphic transfers are the way to go. They have information about this all on their website. I'm sure other NZ banks offer the same services. Get the IBAN number from your bank, click withdraw @ mtgox and follow the instructions. New Zealand does not use IBAN.BNZ have a holding IBAN which, if you supply the details to the sender e.g. MT Gox, they can deposit the money into this account. The details which you give vary among accounts. Title: Re: International Money Transfers Post by: lord bookington on June 14, 2011, 01:26:00 PM That seems a lot easier, I will look into that in more depth once Mt Gox is up and running again. I wonder if it would work for deposits into Mt Gox, I was looking at going through Technocash before this, however a 5% fee isnt really that appealing
