My coins have appeared in my wallet today after I changed to a new server.
I had tried several different servers yesterday but none would synchronize, I guess I should've tried more.
The first one I tried this morning worked.

Anyway, problem solved, so thanks much to you all for your replies to this

If it's of interest, I notice that when I switch back to the original server I was using (14.3.38.179)
the coins disappear from my wallet again
I'm using v3.0.2
The number of blocks listed next to bockchain is indeed lower with the non-working server
and it says something about a chain split being detected

Thanks again, its been educational for me at least

Thanks for the replies guys

the tracsaction id is
ed3940e0e889dc1cbde18aa31405573b814249d4524644a622bbaa9526b508e0

receiving address is:
1EwJ6yfnuLGKbpdjcgF9bc5Uxa1qU1DnsV

yes it's still listed in my electrum. When I created new wallets it did go to 3rd down in the address tab. But it's still listed in the recevie tab of an
older copy of the wallet I just opened.
(this is a direct copy and paste directly from electrum: 1EwJ6yfnuLGKbpdjcgF9bc5Uxa1qU1DnsV)

The green dot is on to say it's in sync, and I've tried different servers.
It does seem to be dropping out of sync and then back in more than usual, but it always goes green.

I'm using my regular computer for this, havent updated/ installed any firewalls or anti virus

I can't find the blockchain_headers_file   do you know where it should be?

Bittylicious support page says they can't do anything once the coins are in blockchain,so not sure they'd want to know, but I'll try contacting them if all else fails.

Would installing electrum and recreating the wallet on a different computer work maybe?
Does it make any difference if you recreate from private keys instead of the seed?

Thanks again

Hi All

So I bought some coins from bittylicious and they havent arrived after 2 days
I've check the address I sent them to and the transaction id is saying it's complete on blockchain.

I have updated to the latest electrum still no joy.
I have also tried creating a new wallet with the same seed, and I have tried restoring a copy of the same original wallet.
I do notice that on both it takes ages to synchronise, but with the new wallet one at least it does eventually go green and still no coins

Any ideas?

I havent been using bitcoin/ electrum very long so sorry if some of my terminology isn't quite correct.
I'm happy to give the transaction id if that would help? I didnt know if that was the done thing of not..

Thanks
