Title: Just tried sending coins to bitcoin qt address but they never arrived.
Post by: spark on March 30, 2013, 07:58:09 PM
waited a couple hours.
Qt is up to date with transaction history.
Sent from blockchain.info.....
It was quite a small amount, but i selected frugal/no fee's from blockchain.info
what could i have done wrong?

The no-fee method can sometimes take a very long time.  Rest assured, it will get processed, but with a timeframe of "eventually".  I remember someone waited a whole day...not sure how long it should take, however.

it could be a wrong address or the transaction didn't even broadcast, worst case you got ripped!

Do you have the tx id, but yes no fee will take longer, could take up to day to get a confirmation.
