1  Other / Beginners & Help / Mt.Gox Held Funds for 8 Months on: September 20, 2013, 05:46:20 AM
Greetings To All:

Back in January I decided that I wanted to purchase Bitcoins.  I suppose that it was required to use some sort of "exchange" broker, and according to what I had read at the time Mt.Gox were the ones to go to.  Mt.Gox transferred the funds ($145 USD) from my checking account on 4 January 2013.  I provided a myriad of supporting documents as required by Mt.Gox.  Life took over and I forgot about the purchase.  On 13 August 2013, I receive an email from Mt.Gox stating that they received $136 USD into my account.  The very next day I am told that the supporting documents were not sufficient and that I was to resubmit within 5 days.  Well, the cost of 1 BTC in January 2013 was around $15 USD.  As I write today, 1 BTC = $138 USD a loss for me of about $1K.  Do I have any recourse?  Your thoughts!!!

Cheers
