And.... Did i understand correctly?
They claim to have 3-4 weeks hold before sending out the wires but noone comes here and claims that they have been paid successfully in usd?
I have quite big amount of usd in their account and i rely my business on it.
I make my plans according to the possibility that i may have the funds until March 2014 if i request them today or in the very first days of the following month.
Is it a false hope?
The current delay in getting USD out is a 5% fee and roughly 4 weeks. This is a special manual transfer. You must contact support at Gox for them to handle it. As more and more people request this, the delay is likely increasing.
I'm not about to accept the insult of a 5% fee. The $5k wire of mine that Mt. Gox has been sitting on for more than a quarter was never more than I could easily lose, but as the price rises, it's now even more just chump-change. Unless we have a significant and permanent collapse it looks like I'll have the resources and time to pursue various projects, and having Mt. Gox owe me the $5k via questionable business practices could pop up as something useful.
I'll always be happy to accept BTC instead of this fiat dept which they cannot or will not honor, but only as long as my last trade (where all of my fiat originated) is rolled back.
roll back? ! I think it's a dream in Mtgox. Maybe you could convert your USD to BTC and withdraw BTC out of Mtgox ASAP. Don't waste your time and patience in Mtgox.
