<p>On Thursday, August 1st, I withdrew (or so I was given to understand) some dollars from my MtGox account.  They were to be wire-transferred to a checking account in the USA.  When the money hadn't shown up after two weeks, I sent an email to MtGox asking how I could tell where the transaction is in the queue.  I got a reply that didn't answer that question, but said that transactions are taking longer than they would like.  The money still hasn't been transferred.</p>

I'll write this as a comment since it doesn't really answer the question: It is known that Mtgox are currently experiencing severe problems with withdrawals. It could definitely take weeks until you get your money, and I don't know of a way to know your current status.

I am waiting for a significant USD withdrawal from June 27. No luck so far and MtGox has no ETA.

@MtGoxAbandoner, how could you cancel a withdrawal request after it is submitted?

@Pacerier : You might have to contact MtGox by email to do that.  I think they will attend to that on the same day even if it takes months or aeons to withdraw dollars.

@Pacerier : I don't understand your question.  I think if you cancel a withdrawal of $100 they will just credit $100 to your MtGox account.  My account there says I have a certain number of dollars and a certain number of bitcoins.  In early August I attempted to withdraw some dollars, and I'm still waiting for that to happen.  I would presume that if I cancel the withdrawal they would credit to my account the number of dollars I was withdrawing.

@Pacerier : I would add that although dollar withdrawals may take months, bitcoin withdrawals can be done in minutes.

On Thursday, August 1st, I withdrew (or so I was given to understand) some dollars from my MtGox account. They were to be wire-transferred to a checking account in the USA. When the money hadn't shown up after two weeks, I sent an email to MtGox asking how I could tell where the transaction is in the queue.

Is this amount of time typical, or did this somehow get lost? Is there some way to tell where in the queue I am?
