Title: mtgox Withdraw 73 days and counting
Post by: greatbotboy on October 14, 2013, 11:28:00 PM
I know they had the whole falling out with dwolla, but 73 days for a withdraw?

I have opened a ticket with their support people, but they seemed to be lacking an informative answer. What burns me the most is when I ask how long it will take I get a very generic and uninformed "You are currently in queue" response.  No update on when they think my withdraw will be processed.  No idea as to where my request is in line.  But I can get the money put back "instantly" into my mtgox account if I so choose.  I could have done a lot with that BTC or $.

If I would have known that it was going to take 73+ days to have my withdraw processed, let alone in my bank account I don't think I would have used mtgox.

Anyone else waiting a ridiculous amount of time to get their money or do they just hate me?  :-\

There's already a dozen threads on this, why don't you post your data point in the withdraw delays thread, it may be useful to others.

Well. I'm glad I never have used MT Gox.  :D  I set up an account but figured out that I had to go through expensive 3rd parties to deposit.

The reason MT Gox is going under in my opinion. They have a Higher than usual price for Bitcoin. So lot's of traders are buying Bitcoin off other exchanges and sending them to MT Gox. Then they withdraw fiat. So Mt Gox is typically paying more for the Bitcoin than it is worth.
