I was referred to you by the Gox support team.  They directly informed me that the only way to get my problem resolved is to speak to you. (and I REALLY hope you can help otherwise i will never use GOX again because the support desk was so rude and didnt even try to help let alone there has been NUMBEROUS transaction problems.)

So here is the problem, I really really would appreciate some help on this since everyone at GOX is ignoring me.

I deposited £200 via my bank account to my Mt Gox account. Once it was cleared, I attempted to withdraw it to my wallet. However I created a SEND address from my wallet, not a RECIEVE address, and by accident I used Mt Gox Account to send my £200 of bitcoin to a SEND ADDRESS generated by my wallet.

Now I have nothing. Please tell me that this is something that can be fixed and that my physical £200 isnt floating around in cyberspace, i work really hard for my money and I need this resolved.

PLEASE HELP ME! ANYONE!!

Your wallet doesn't create send addresses, those are ones youve used in the past or added to a contact list. You sent your money to somebody else.

Wallets only create receive addresses.

Try to find out who owns the address you send your btc to, first step would be to look up the transaction on http://blockchain.info, followed by http://blockviewer.com ...

Start gathering info from there and then hope that the owner is a nice person.

How the holy hell did you make a send to address? What Client Version are you using? (ie, Bitcoin-QT 6.0.1, Armory, NamecoinGUI, Etc) Second, Is your blockchain caught up to the current block?(on bitcoin-QT windows version, which I use, there is a status bar on the bottom of the GUI that shows how much of the chain is downloaded.Your current block should be 197019 as of this post)

As has been pointed out, this statement makes no sense. You cannot possibly have simply "created" a "send" address in your wallet. All addresses generated by your wallet are receiving addresses; a sending address can only appear in your wallet if you obtained it from somewhere else. Please tell us, step by step, exactly what you did to obtain the address you gave to Mt. Gox. At this point, it's not at all clear whether you really sent your coins to somebody else, or whether you only think you did and the problem is actually something completely different.

My money is on an un-updated blockchain in his client, or a bad google translate translation....

has your client finished downloading the blockchain? Its impossible to generate a send address, so unless you typed one in yourself, the coins are probably just delayed in showing up in your wallet.

Thanks for all responses.

I know i am an idiot, i made a mistake just really need to be rectified.

client i am using is Latest Bitcoin-Qt version: 0.6.3


I didnt create  a send address by manually typing it.  This is what happened.. i went to withdraw my btc from gox, and instead of copy/pasting the address from a newly created RECIEVE address, i accidentally copied/pasted a SEND coins address...

I dont I am really confused and am new to BTC and have read everything about how to use it 100 times so i dont know why this has happened.  And as previous user mentioned it is impossible to send a SEND address as they dont genrate on Bitclient.. so either mtgox is holding my £200 for unknown reasons or the £200 is floating around in cyberspace?

It could only be my wallet i have withdrawn funds to EVER, although new address for each one, my wallet is only wallet ever to recieve BTC.


So what the heck is going on Sad Sad

Please help#

thanks kinda all

Let your blockchain in your client catch up. It may take a while to show up, and the blockchain can take a day or more to download in less than ideal situations. Are you using a Linux or Windows distro?

Where did you copied the address? Was from your mtgox account? If yes, then the bitcoins just made a round trip from your account back to it, no problem there only you just lost a few hours of your time. If no, then you have a problem, see my first question and please answer.

Dude, I really hope the money is just waiting for confirmation and will appear in your wallet.

But seriously, here's what I don't understand:
Please tell me that this is something that can be fixed and that my physical £200 isnt floating around in cyberspace, i work really hard for my money and I need this resolved.
How the F*CK do people mess around with money they can't afford to lose, doing crazy shit they clearly don't understand Huh

(this is meant as a constructive warning, not to scoff)

As long as you don't exactly understand what you're doing, DON'T FUCK AROUND WITH LARGE AMOUNTS OF MONEY! (where "large" = anything you can't afford to lose)
Try with pennies first, until you thoroughly understand what you're doing.

In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.
