    It's not.

    In the interim, when depositing or withdrawing EUR or GBP with an Mt.Gox account, we ask our customers to use our HSBC Hong-Kong bank account (“International Wire”, in the Add Funds and Withdraw Funds pages of MtGox.com) or partners such as AurumXchange.
    All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

    It is still possible to send/receive money from/to europe, now without the SEPA option it cost more fees - thats all.


    you have to use the 'international wire' option. its a IBAN/SWIFT way, usually very fast (1-2 hours total on a businessday for my IBAN/SWIFT withdraws) but banking fees on both sides.

    Interesting that this decision came one day after my request of higher withdrawal limit went through, and I the same day (yesterday) requested a order to take out 8000 dollars, so what is happening to my withdrawals now (it is more SEPA withdrawals that hasn't went through yet also)? More information please!!

    There were MtGox support staff on here last night and they didn't mention the decision.  They usually post their announcements using Japanese time - yesterday was the 21 in Japan.  Off course it's now Saturday afternoon in Japan, so who knows when there'll be further information about what's happening.

    We sincerely regret to report, however, that the process of instituting an alternative may take up to two weeks before these services are once again available for use.

    Is a wire transfer from their Hong Kong bank an option for you?

    I just talked to Mark, my money is on its way, but as it looks right now, no more SEPA transfers from now on.

    At least you know yours is coming.  That must be a relief.

    Yes, hopefully they will find a European bank that don't see Bitcoin as a threat.

    i can still see it in the list of withdraw-options if you have selected USD or EUR as your main wallet.

    You can do SEPA transfers for MtGox codes and viceversa through our company. Note that we are a third party independent exchangers, so there are fees related to this (before somebody starts complaining Smiley ).
