Hi glenb20170. I'm sorry the issue is ongoing. I have sent a message to the agent you've been dealing with and they will be looking into your specific issue shortly.
Thanks for your patience.
Dear Kraken-Septimus -
PROGRESS! The funds in the stuck wire transfer have been returned to my account. I see that your larger problem with withdrawals is still ongoing; I hope you get it fixed soon.
In the meantime...
Dude. They gave you a perfectly clear answer. Your bank refuses to handle wires from Kraken. Change banks if you want your $$$ out.
I do have a second bank configured, and so, before trying to resort to crypto, I have put in a new withdrawal request for the same amount, using the other bank.
(And interestingly, I was able to just click right through that process, so it looks like they may be making progress on the larger issue.)
I'm not out of the woods yet.... but I'm feeling less worried, and I will *definitely* report back everywhere once I know status!
Thank you all for your help here!
Glen
