Intersango exchange (formerly Britcoin)

[stordoff]

I've had a transfer to my bank account listed as "Verifying" for just over a day now. Any idea how long before this will go through?

Many Thanks.

We cannot cash out to banks if it is not during bank operation hours. Mon-Fri. We will be trying to do daily withdraws and in enough time so that you receive your funds the first or next day. If you do not receive your funds by Tuesday 5PM, please email

Site is down. What's up?

Looks like an upload of new version of software with the permissions/uid left as rsync left them (I've done this myself a few times).

just being curious - to me it looks like depositing BTC @ britcoin takes pretty long (around 3 hours). It says it takes 6 confirmations berofre BTC get credited to your account. When I do a trade on my own Bitcoin account I get to 6 confirmations within a good hour. Any idea why it always takes so long at Britcoin?

Never had that problem. I deposited last night, and the BTC were showing in my Britcoin account about ~20 seconds after getting the 6 confirmations.

I don't see these issues.  Once you pay your money into britcoin, click refresh on your 'deposit' page and you should see britcoin issue you a new public key - this means that britcoin has seen the transaction.  If this is taking a long time it might be an issue with you pushing the transaction to the p2p network.  After this, I count 6 transactions and it appears in 'Verifying' then it usually takes about 10 mins to actually appear.  At the current difficulty, the network is doing about 10 blocks an hour so not taking more than 45 mins for the whole thing... once the difficulty goes up on Wednesday, expect for it to take over an hour.

Strange - happened to me twice. Maybe genjxi was updaten somethin so it took that long. Thanks for your answers, though

I keep getting error message when viewing or trying to cancel an order, is anyone else having this problem?

yup, not just you.

edit: no transactions since about 11PM last night either, so i guess it is stuffed for everyone.

Also BTC deposits aren't being verified (has 75 confirmations) and their support system is showing an internal server error .

So sorry about this. I had to leave 2 of our developers in charge of the site because these few days I'm in London speaking to the banks.

Everything should be fixed now.

Looks like there are still a few problems genjix (this is generated when viewing a request)

Code:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare enable_errors() (previously declared in /var/www/britcoin.co.uk/errors.php:4) in /var/www/britcoin.co.uk/errors.php on line 6

and http://support.britcoin.co.uk/ is still showing the internal error.

Thanks for keeping us updated genjix.

Sorry everybody this one is my fault, I moved the server over to suExec and suPHP.  I thought everything was working, but apparently not, ... then i added csrf protection and things got interesting.

Everything is functioning correctly now.

Hello everyone... I'm new to Britcoin and the forums.
On Monday, I withdrew some money for the first time using Britcoin, I must say the site is great, very easy to use.
But today, it's still "Verifying", and I'm wondering if it's taking longer than it should?
(probably not, but I'm just a bit cautious seeing as this is my first time using the site)
Oh and BTW, with the sort code we're not supposed to use spaces or dashes are we?

Correct.

Funds should arrive tomorrow.

can see in the orderbook trades that should be happening, but everything seems to have stopped.
