I guess it's possible that my overall balances somehow make me a preferred customer but are you trying to say Gox isn't? So two possibilities exist. Either they are doing it on purpose and lying about limits that don't exist or their bank really put in those limits because they see their money flows and balance sheet and think they are at risk. Both scenarios are a bit worrisome.

Both scenarios are a bit far fetched. The limit has been the same since MtGox got that Polish bank account in 2011. Judging by the price difference ein EUR/BTC vs USD/BTC, much more money has gone in through that account than out. Why would their bank lie about the limit, btw?

I said gox might be lying not the bank.

The limit was revealed by their bank when someone called them. I don't think MtGox has published their limit.

Also why can't they mail checks out if they have a wire limit? International checks take a few weeks to clear but it won't be months. Or are you saying there's a limit on how many checks their printer can print in a day?

I haven't seen a check since the 80ies, except one. Got one in return from some USSAnian scammer company. I was told by my bank I had to travel to USSA to cash it in. Would you be happy if you got a check which you had to travel to Japan to cash in? Probably cheaper to take the 5% option.

Sturle, you keep mentioning this 5% emergency withdrawal option, but not a single person on this site has been able to provide any evidence for it. Further, if such an option existed, it would currently be quite profitable as the spread between other sites and Mtgox is over 5%.
