Below you will find the email that one of our subscribers sent to Bitstamp, followed by their response (after 20minutes).

To whom it may concern,

Until you bring the trading service online, I would like proceed by WITHDRAWING my FUNDS, not coins. Is there a particular reason I can't do that at the moment? I understand the "trading" / "coins" part, but the fiat part, where my money is stored in a bank account, is another matter.

Why have I been restricted access to my cash, especially now that you cannot provide any responsible ETA?

Dear customer,

For the time being, you cannot withdraw bitcoins or fiat held with us. This is because we have temporarily suspended our services in an attempt to make sure that all of our customers’ Bitcoin and personal information remain safe. In addition; the technical and accounting issues related to your request would be too great from a risk based perspective for a secure re-launch of our website and service as a whole.
We are working to restore our full services in the coming days, at which time you’ll be able to resume withdrawals, deposits, and other Bitstamp services.

We’ll keep you updated as we know more about timing, both on our Twitter handle and website.

Best regards,

Bitstamp Support

Note that our subscriber's account holds more than $250k. For that amount we think that he deserves more than just a template email response.

We really hope for the best.

I love how the Ripple guy has an upside down suit as an avatar. It's perfect

I like getting off topic, because I don't know shit about bitcoin. Really, I am trying to pump my activity so as to get my third bitcoin, then I will dump into the leveraged short squeezing, elliot waving, gann graphin bulltards

Meh

It makes perfect sense to me that they want to wait till they have a computer system ready to process the requests rather than spend their time doing withdrawals manually by e-mail with compromised security. I don't see the cause for concern here.

[octaft]

You make no sense.

The irony.

[chopstick]

What what

in the butt?

China should be waking up around now. Lets see if they can rattle BTC into some kind of movement.

[fallinglantern]

Meh

Where does the neck end and the chin begin on Mr. Karpeles? The world may never know...

[JayJuanGee]

You make no sense.

The irony.

Yes an irony that you feel a need to cause your response to make even less sense by snipping the reference in my post.  Accordingly, for ease of reference, I have added it below      :

tbh as a woman it is not hard to be good at sex  

Well it's not hard to satisfy a man, but it takes a skilled woman to really give you that truly mind-blowing sex.

You make no sense.  Sounds like wall (or balls) speculation to me...

Explanation

[octaft]

Is mentioning that I'm a woman really all it takes to get you all talking about sex instead of bitcoin here?

It was the asian dude in the bra that did it for me.

[marcus_of_augustus]

the swamp is following a well worn path ... first all the over-the-top KYC/AML and seizing of funds for non-compliance, then the unnatural dumping patterns and rampant short-selling (how much is by the exchange insider trading to get cheap coinz to balance out it's internal losses??) ... and now the "we got hacked!!" ... then oh but we will be closed for a few hours/days and we'll take the chance to overhaul our entire system and put up a new slick skin on our webpage  

this is almost the pathological progression of every other bitcoin exchange that is on it's way out ... good night, good riddance, they allowed some real scumbags (anti-bitcoiners) to set-up shop in their house. Take note, bitcoin has a way of dealing with its own ....
