It's more like trying to keep customers.
And this isn't an easy task with all they have on the record so far.

I'm new to them.. what's their record? I've had no problem with them so far, except account verification taking longer than 10 days

Trading engine bugs. Also, it's next to impossible for people in the USA to get USD out of their Mt. Gox accounts (since international wires are backlogged to July).

If there is something that will make Bitcoin succeed, it is growth of utility - greater quantity and variety of goods and services offered for BTC. If there is something that will make Bitcoin fail, it is the prevalence of users convinced that BTC is a magic box that will turn them into millionaires, and of the con-artists who have followed them here to devour them.

thanks, and to stompix as well… is there a better high volume exchange? i've noticed the withdrawal problem and workarounds mean more fees through other 3rd parties.. please advise

Mt. Gox fees are on the high side.

The other exchanges charge roughly half.

Expect AT LEAST 10 working days...probably longer. Make sure you send everything as it should, to avoid re-submitting

Let's keep a moment of silence in advance for Mtgox death. It will no longer be with us this time next year...

Done!

They seem a bit speedier at the moment. My mate just got verified in 24 hours.

How many times have you verified at Bitstamp to be able to make such a claim?

I have verified 3 times with Bitstamp, it can take much longer. Last verification took 7 working days, that's a life time in Bitcoin.

Agree, had to re-submit several times; and delays ran up to +7 days.
