I have a question: I have high figures in usd atm @Mtgox. Do they actually pay no matter how long does it take? I dont mind waiting if actually my money is safe and will arrive to me sooner or later (in fact i mind but what to do...) %5 fee of a high figure wire transfer is so damn crazy. I am not in sepa zone, not in usa.. need usd wire transfer.
At the moment, the 5% emergency int'l wire is the only working option for those who have a lot of USD in Gox. IIRC, they have some kind of daily limit even for those manual transfers, but it's way higher than e.g. the SEPA limit.
The emergency wire will still take several weeks to be processed.
I do not really believe Gox can run with their customers' money, so as long as they're making shitloads of cash every day (from trading fees) I wouldn't be too worried. I only have about 1k eur at gox personally, though.
