so, I just tried to withdraw USD using SEPA:
Dear XX
We regret to inform you that your withdrawal request has been rejected.
Reason:
Bitstamp has recently learned that the Raiffeisen Banking Group has adopted an internal policy regarding Bitcoin-related transfer.
The group no longer allows transfer related to Bitcoin. We have therefore cancelled your withdrawal transfer.
Please request your future bank withdrawals to an alternate bank account held in your name.
what the hell is this? my bank is not part of RB group + there is no warning on the site and I used this account before without any problems. any idea how to solve this except going to bank and create new account somewhere?
Open an account at a bitcoin-friendly bank. I recommend fidor:
