Are the withdrawls on Mt. Gox still being held up?

[John Kirk]

I received an e-mail from Mt. Gox indicating they had negotiated to double their SEPA withdrawl limits.

From the e-mail:

Increased SEPA withdrawal limits

You’ve been asking for it, and now we’ve managed to negotiate with our bank in Poland to better facilitate SEPA withdrawals. In fact, they’ve doubled our limit. This is great news, and we’re trying to get more all the time to increase the speed of withdrawals.

I was wondering if anyone has any insight as to what this actually means in terms of actual withdrawls, and whether it has any impact at all on U.S. dollar transfers. Does anyone here have any news to report in this regard?

This should help a bit but not solve the problem, i just got an email yesterday after i asked support and looks like USD withdrawals will have to wait couple more weeks. Most people are transferring their btc to bitstamp or coin base for withdrawals instead (you get lower price but at least you get your USD)
