I made a SEPA transfer in from a UK account 5 days ago and still nothing. I emailed support and haven't received a response.
Kraken needs to up their game in this department if they seriously want to survive the rush to Bitcoin that is coming.
Ouch

Another bad feedback. 5 days in this particular market is a very long waste of time and money.
What about Mt-gox ? The up to 20 days to validate the account has kind of dishearten me.
So in the end, what is the best place to buy BTC with a non-digital currency ?
