I have a question: I heard it takes up to 7 business days for a deposit to clear paxum and then get into mtgox/tradehill. Why so long? Dwolla is only 3 business days. (even that is too long if you ask me, considering they already verified my bank account my making deposits to it)

Dwolla used a different bank than we do. our bank is based out of Belize and generally offshore wire transfers take around 3-5 business days. |

We offer the following options for deposit: Wire - takes 3-5 business days Check - instant upon receipt via the postal service EFT (ACH) (US Only) - 5-7 business days P2P transfer (from another Paxum client) - instant We will be adding more funding/withdrawal options soon, and we are currently working with our provider to decrease the time on our EFT loads. |

Check - instant upon receipt via the postal service So I could get my money deposited and available for use within approx 24 hours if I sent you a personal check using Next Day mail (fedex for example)? You don't wait for the check to clear? |

What about going the opposite direction? What if I sold BTC and then withdrew the funds from MtGox->Paxum->Checking. How long would that take? |

It's great how fast and active you guys (and gals) are with replying here. |

For withdrawal we have the following options: Wire - takes 3-5 business days Check - takes as long as the postal service takes to deliver to your area EFT (ACH) US Only - 5-7 business days To an already existing credit card - 5-7 business days To Paxum Mastercard - instant We will be adding more funding/withdrawal options soon, and we are currently working with our provider to decrease the time on our EFT loads.

I just want to know about the paper check because I don't do traditional banking. i would have to go to a check casher. Optimally I would like to go to the bank it was drawn on for free.

Ok tell me if I'm understanding this correctly. If I want to directly deposit to my Canadian bank account from Paxum it's going to cost me $50.00? Why?

3 to 5 days for a WIRE?!?
Wow. Bitcoin is definitely going to need better options to get off the ground.

You find this outrageous!? The average Joe (and Joette) works a forty week and then has to wait...wait for it...a week to get their first pay check. Here's the kicker: the day they're no longer employed by that employer, they have to wait another week to receive their last check. An instant Bitcoin transaction would solve this disjustice (not a word--I looked it up). At the end of the day, an employee should be able to clock out and have his wages automatically directed to their Bitcoin wallet. That way they can go out and get drunk, then go home and watch a little porn and play some poker on the internet. The next day, they can go back to work (if they feel up to it) and do it all over again. Bitcoin: With the Best Darn Forum on the Planet |

Do you even understand the concept of a wire? It's primary purpose (which you pay for I might add) is to send funds somewhere QUICKLY. Three to five days for an ACH is acceptable. For a wire it's just plain stupid. |

That's not what he meant. He meant your argument was B.S. (and I agree with him): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man |

Checks are issued by First Bank. Ok tell me if I'm understanding this correctly. If I want to directly deposit to my Canadian bank account from Paxum it's going to cost me $50.00? Why?
We do not yet offer International EFT, so you would have to use our Wire option, which has a $50 USD transaction fee. International EFT is on our list of future implementations. Of course, you could also use the Paxum Mastercard. You can request it without any funds in your account, and there is a $2 USD ATM withdrawal fee. All our fees are listed directly on our site under the header 'FEES'. |
