﴾͡๏̯͡๏﴿ O'RLY? How not to Transfer Funds from Steemit.com to Bittrex! [Or any other exchange!] ☹

in blog •  7 years ago 

So yesterday during my fiasco trying to get a Walmart load out of Colton, CA I grabbed my phone to transfer some steem (from a power down) to Bittrex because I was BROKE AS HELL!

In a rush I mistakenly entered in my SBD Wallet address instead of my Steem Wallet address in the Memo field.

The address for my Bittrex Steem Wallet (that I should have put in the Memo field is): 8008998246974ff4839

To add insult to injury Bittrex has seen growth lately faster than they can increase staff so their Support response times are SLOW. I filed a Support ticket yesterday when I realized my mistake and got this response.


Does anyone else notice this disturbing sentence?

This process can take up to 2 weeks and also requires that you have already generated a message/tag/paymentid/memo.

I really hope that it doesn't take that long as I kind of am really needing that money. It will be another two weeks before I get my first paycheck from this trucking company and that is my means of living. That is around $500 USD lost in the ether right now that I desperately need.

So if anyone from @bittrex is active on Steemit please help! The support ticket is here: https://support.bittrex.com/hc/en-us/requests/175397

Ahhh, yes, the "convenience" of crypto currencies. I can't understand why they haven't garnered much more acceptance by the masses? At least cryptos "might" continue to pack on lunacy to current pricing, but as far as "convenience" goes...debit cards "seem to be" alot less of a pain than the currencies that will soon >>> "Rule the world!" ....according to the ave crypto believer :-)

I hope they solve their problems and you will get your money as soon as possible!!

Hope your issue must be resolve as fast as it can.

I have heard from one other steemian of issues like this about a month ago. Thanks for the info. - Troy
