Bitcoin Forum

About 3 hours ago I requested a BTC withdrawal. I confirmed it immediately from email and everything seemed normal. An hour, still processing... sent a support ticket... another hour and no response. I sent a follow up message on the same ticket and just received an email saying the wait time is.......

15 *DAYS*!

Cryptopia is more like a Crypt it seems. Things deposited there dont apparently leave.

Anyone else having issues or am I the lucky one?

LOL 3 minutes after I post this and 3.25 hours in, the transfer has initiated! Thank you BitCoinTalk Gods for listening to your humble servant's pleas for help! ;)

Just give them some time because there would be delays into any exchanges when it comes either on depositing or withdrawing funds. Some might be instant some might not. For BTC withdrawals in cryptopia i dont have any problems but recently i have a problem on GBYTES deposit which it didnt went through my wallet and until now it isnt still resolved.How sad in my part.

Going back, since the issue of yours is already resolved then you should lock this thread to prevent further replies.

You were pretty lucky this time that your situation was resolved by itself.

Cryptopia has a pretty bad reputation for their support. Indeed, if there was any issues with your account and you needed to consult the support staff of the site, you would be looking at at least a few weeks until they respond.

Plus it seems like a lot of cryptopia account emails are leaked somehow to hackers, since some people have been getting login attempts that are unauthorised. Along with the fact that they didn't take responsibility for one of their listed coins being hacked, I think it's best to avoid storing or trading large amounts on their site.

Lately this exchange is my favorite one, a simple email verification allows you to withdraw up to 5000 dollars daily which is a good amount.

I have been using it to exchange my Musicoins to Btc and so far no problems when with drawing the Btc. I usually receive the bitcoins a few minutes after I click the confirmation link in the email.

Support on any exchange, even the billion dollar exchanges is pretty bad. So essentially when using these smaller exchanges we all just need to hope some stupid glitch or error doesn't occur and stop us from transferring money. Personally I have deposited altcoins to sell and withdrawn the Bitcoin very quickly after. As always I'd suggest doing small amounts and not worrying about the extra transaction fees you have to pay. I'd rather send $100 10 times and be safe then $1,000 all at once and have some withdrawal error that could take weeks to months to even here a response for.
