Title: BTC-E support needed
Post by: ArpFlush on April 04, 2013, 12:54:41 PM
Hi all,

I just got an account at btc-e.com and deposited 0.02 BTC. Since I don't see it reflected in my BTC account over there, I like to know if there is a minimum deposit at BTC-E. I asked support but they don't seem to answer...  :'( and I haven't found any FAQ's...

Does anyone have good experiences or walkthroughs voor this website?

Many thanks!

It waits for 3 confirmations.

How long did you wait? Transfers can take a very long time if you didn't pay any transaction fee.

This is a kind of anti-spam scheme, you should not be able to spam the system with many small transactions.

I did it yesterday (before noon i think). And indeed, I don't think I paid this transaction fee.

Go to http://blockchain.info and type ur deposit address in the search box.

If you have the transaction id you can search for it at Blockexplorer and see if it was included in the blockchain. Or you could just view the recipient address and look for it there.

In case it is visible there (and got > 6 confirmations), then it's time to go to BTC-E support with the transaction id and ask why it's not reflected in your balance.

But if it's not in the blockchain, which is most likely, it practically doesn't exist. That would mean no miner picked up your transaction to include it (which is what the fee helps with). In that case just keep waiting. It's not unheard of that small transcation without fees can take several days to clear.

Hm, the transaction details say:

My Multibit wallet says: Status: not seen in chain

Transaction details:

Looks good. Is 13Aeon your BTC-E address? But the 0.023 BTC was never added to your account balance over there? In that case I think you should send the above transaction id to BTC-E support and ask why it was not credited.

I notice they charge 0.01 bitcoins to withdrawl money - something to keep in mind I was surprised to find out
