Exactly and if its marked in red one is not even able to continue the transfer. Clearly at that point of time it was not marked in red. Transfer amount was 0.03128653 BCC and it obviously allowed me to do the exchange.

Were you making your exchange on the weekend before the Bitcoin Cash fork when the market rates for the coin were oscillating? Sticking to a minimum amount during the boosting coin growth is risky since the rates are changing rapidly as well as the exchange minimums. Unfortunately, that's most likely what happened with your transaction.

I did the transfer at the 16th on 16:04. Funny thing I was hoping to transfer my leftover BCC to another wallet but that then is also not possible? Another 30$ down the drain/in your pockets

That's quite unusual. Please message us your user id from the Settings screen, we'd like to research your exchange case. Looking forward to your reply!
Done! See PM! Thanks


Any news on this? Had no response yet. Thanks

We've forwarded all information to our exchange partner, awaiting an update from them now. We'll keep you posted!

It took some time but thanks for finding the cause! Looks like they are not scamming after all!

Don’t buy their answers guys! I just got scammed by them as well. Was exchanging  some bcc to btc via their app and it magically disappeared. According to Freewallet because the transfer was below the minimum. Besides the fact that their app does not even allow a transfer below the minimum their response shocked me the most.

“Your next question might be, “What happened with my funds?” Sorry to tell you this, however, the amount of your transaction was too low, it didn't go through and was spent on exchange fees. Your funds are now part of the cryptocurrency network, they belong to no one now.”


They don’t even seem to care and are spending my $35 on exchange fees. Could be that I was close to the minimum and the minimum increased while my transfer was pending but it seems rather odd right?

All exchange operations in Freewallet are powered by our partner, Changelly.com. They have a minimum transfer amount requirement that applies to smart exchanges in our app, too: before you confirm a transaction, there's a minimum amount clearly stated in red. The current minimum transfer amount for the exchange of Bitcoin Cash for Bitcoin is 0.03556243 BCC (this amount is updated with time depending on the rates available), which is approximately 42.28 USD.

Moreover, this requirement is specifically mentioned in our Terms of Use:

> There is a minimum exchangeable transaction for each cryptocurrency pair. The minimum amount is provided by the exchange service. IF YOUR TRANSACTION IS LESS THAN A REQUIRED MINIMUM, YOUR WALLET WILL NOT BE REFUNDED.

Exactly and if its marked in red one is not even able to continue the transfer. Clearly at that point of time it was not marked in red. Transfer amount was 0.03128653 BCC and it obviously allowed me to do the exchange. So just bad luck you/Changelly, which looks familiar, happens to increase the minimum while transferring? Transferring 0.0002 BCC more did work the day before. So clearly the minimums where lower then they are now.
