Title: Accidently sent coins my own electrum wallet not showing?
Post by: m48925 on September 18, 2016, 12:23:05 AM
Hello,

As the above says I sent my coin to my own wallet in error. It is confirmed on blockchain and has left my wallet but not returned, any ideas?!

You sent them to yourself? It should appear in your wallet. Are you synced with the network? Is your balance not what it should be or are you not seeing the transaction in your wallet?

Which wallet software are you using and do you have the transaction ID so we can see the addresses that were used?
If everything was done as you said and if your wallet is completely synced, you should be able to see the funds.

If you are sure you sent it to your wallet address, you will get it back, just wait for the miners to process the block, but if you send it to other person wallet address, that is goodbye to your coins.

OP,

Did you get your problem solved?  Don't be embarrassed if you need help.  We have all made some mistakes while learning.  If you don't want to show us the actual transaction ID, do you know how to examine it yourself?  We can post links or whatever it takes to help you along the road.  That is why we are here most of the time.
