Today i wanted to withdraw some btc from mtgox, and they say me my account is pending rewiew.

They ask me my ID and all.

I dont want to give them anything and i want my btc back.

You have learnt one thing. Keep your money in your possession. Store it on a offline computer if you don't think you'll be touching it. (Until you need it)

I will never do that again but how i can get my money back.
I have more that 10 000 dollars in btc on this account

Gox is now subject to AML/KYC laws. The days of anonymously moving $10K+ amounts are over. It's not a bitcoin thing, it's because at gox you are involving fiat currency. Fiat money is not your money and comes with a lot of rules and regulations.
I sucks for you, I know. But giving your identity is likely here to stay; especially at a public exchange.

[The Bitcoin Catalog]

The only way out is to buy bitcoins and move them to another exchange.
Bitcoin cannot be frozen but fiat yes.
I know it sucks

MY friend, my bitcoins are frozen! i cant move one bitcoin from this chit!

[cbhelp]

I am pretty sure MtGox makes people verify even to cash out BTC now also.

It's a mess now over on that exchange.

Apparently you can withdraw your funds if you pay some kind of fees... I don't have a Mtgox account so I can't tell for sure.

Unfortunatelly you have to send your IDs or kiss goodbye your BTC.

It's either send your ID or they keep the coins.

It s stupid, i dont gave any name so i can send the id of who i want...
I understand know why they are ddos all the time ...

[firstlast]

Wow. Didn't know gox started needed verification for even BTC withdrawals. That's BS.

Gox has been bad news bears for while now. Why do people still use it?

How about canceling this withdraw, if you even did withdraw, and then trading this money back to BTC, withdraw THAT, then sell the BTC or something.  Do you need ID for BTC withdrawals?

And yeah, that's why I hate MT. GOX, but you made the choice, so too bad...

He can't withdraw btc. Thats probably one reason why gox volume is 1/4 of the volume on stamp today.

[t3xasdolly]

1. Not enought information
2. Greed + 1. 

[leoragraves666]

ID needed for everything on mt. gox. The only place where you still don't need ID is localbitcoins

[adamstgBit]

maybe you can still create a "MTGox BTC Coupon Code" thing

and fine someone willing to take that and give you btc

[crazynoggin]

I had a small amount in Mt. Gox and I was able to withdraw in BTC without giving them my ID or anything.

[Vod]

What's your problem?  Send them your ID and withdraw the coins.

[Mikan]

are there any BTCexchanges that doesnt need IDs if you want to withdraw fiat in exchange for your BTCs?

[seafarer124]

WOW, lucky I was rejected by MtGox, my utility bill was in Thai and they rejected my verification.

I was verified with BitStamp and have not had the slightest problem.  BitStamp reply very quickly to any message you send.  They are also cheaper.

It surprises me MtGox are still in business with all the horror stories you read.

[laser33]

If things will go such way - no privacy, no mining, bitcoin will die.

[terman45x]

Me too, but it was half year ago. I heard their Bitcoin policy changed, you need ID to even withdraw BTC (even though you never deposited USD)

[rampalija]

send them your ID and problem is solved

[puze]

send them your ID and problem is solved

Exactly.

I only recently set up an account with Mt Gox. I sent scanned copies of my documents one one day and in less than 24 hours I was verified.

After all of the negative stuff I had read about Gox prior to doing this, this quick verification process was a pleasant surprise.

BTC worth 10k USD is a lot of money. I advise you to simply verify with your own ID and a utility bill. Get out of MtGox and out of dodge immediately when you become verified.

Honestly: I don't get why anyone expects to be able to send that kind of money back and worth without providing basic information about yourself. Banks require you to show some form of ID when you open an account. The same thing applies to stock brokers.

I agree with this completely... 10k vs. not showing your id? just send proof and get your 10k, that seems like a very fair deal lol...

[Unluckyduck]

Why do you need ID for coins now too?

MtGox is famous for not letting people withdraw their money. Your best way would be buy back the BTC and transfer it to btc-e.com or coinbase....

[gaston909]

The main point here should be that risking fiat or BTC at mt.gox right now is playing with fire.

[EccLipSe]

what is the problem about sending id to gox?

[Rupture]

what is the problem about sending id to gox?

Coins might have been used for drugs or something similar

[i3lome]

I had to verify to withdra 0.02. took a week

[InwardContour]

This is a bad situation. I hate giving my documents to the exchanges. That's why I like BTCE! 

[BarkinTree]

mtgox is a big problem for the btc economy. i am glad it seems to be slowly being phased out in terms of market share. good news for the btc world!

[motsooner]

mtgox is on the way out. they are only still used so much because before they were the biggest/only major exchange. now its so much hassle for everyone. not all their fault i dont think, the us gov. has cracked down on them. localbitcoins is the way to go now i think. just need to be careful for being scammed but its easy enough to avoid.

[Korporal]

BTC-E is way more fun. No problems sending or receiving funds (so far).

The troll-box alone is worth it for entertainment value. lol 

[zvs]

you can pay me some monies, lots of monies, and i can use my id and such

[vm1990]

the only thing i can say is blame AMERICA and there fascist right wing attempts to control the World

[TheBorg]

Go to freelancer and find someone who will make fake ID docs for<50$. Send them those. Just provide them real info you used ( name and such ) only change numbers in ID card, photo, bill and so on....

[superdork]

fuck mt gox in the fucking face until it bleeds to death. I hate the shit out of mtgox.

The bitcoin world needs better alternatives to that shithole

[superdork]

If you don't mind me asking, how do you get money out of BTC-E.

I would love to do so but all of their withdrawal methods seem shady or have big fees.




and ps fuck dwolla for shutting down their bitcoin operations.

[fishnet]

MtGox held my usd withdrawal months ago.  I waited for two months then finally cancelled the withdrawal, bought bitcoin and transferred the bitcoin to btc-e.  Pain in the rear. Now I keep usd out of mtgox. period.

This.
The troll-box is awesome 

The troll box is a wonderfully sinful pleasure.

The constant panic and hysteria is possibly one of the strangest and unusual things mankind has ever achieved.

That place is pure gold!  One guy actually started arguing with me that ASIC's can not mine other sha-256 coins and I was delirious.  Bless his heart, if he was joking or not, I had a good laugh.

Only if you use Bitcoin-QT to host your own wallet.

If you store Bitcoins with a 3rd party you have left the decentralized world of Bitcoin and you are at mercy of the 3rd party (like a bank).

[greenlion]

I personally verified with MtGox but I was spooked with their behavior and have no intention of ever using them.

I went through a huge runaround sending them scans of valid document after valid document for proof of residence constantly getting rejected for absurd reasons.

Finally after scanning an insurance bill, only to receive the response that it was rejected because "letters are not a valid proof of residence", I wrote a polite yet somewhat forceful reply saying more or less, "This is not a 'letter', this is an insurance bill. Can you please provide me with a real exhaustive list of what you accept so we can stop wasting time going back and forth?".

Sure enough, suddenly I receive an email saying that I've been verified.

If the customer service surrounding getting verified is on this level of unprofessionalism, I can't possibly imagine trusting them ever with any non-trivial amount of money.

[KGBSlim]

That really blows but when you want coins turned into fiat, well this is what happens. USA is more worried about people not paying taxes, but they will tell a different story like "It could be used to fund terrorists etc".......please! Just like the drug dogs they illegally run around cars 40miles north of the border "looking for illegal immigrants".......because Dogs can distinguish by scent who has a legit green card or US ID. It s a joke in this country anymore, Mt Gox is all jacked up because of USA and its in Japan IIRC.......seriously wtf?

Seriously, if you deal with centralized exchange, you must provide your identity proof. This centralized exchange must comply with antilaudering laws. It is not fault of Bitcoin you have now prove your identity proof or kiss your BTC at centralized exchange good bye.

[rampalija]

go and use BITSTAMP
