Bit Coin address

[iman1952]

I thought I copied and pasted a bit coin address for a transaction and have ended up with 69 characters in the address. Have I stuffed up somehow?

Trouble is, the transaction has completed so where would the money go?

Are you sure the transaction was sent? Can you provide the transaction ID for said transaction?
Most wallets check, if the address they are sending to is a "valid" one, and wouldn't let you send to a 69 char string.
Also, what was the address you tried to send the coins from?

If you are telling that the transaction was completed then check with the sender that whether it received the coins if it has received then nothing can be said, if not give the transaction id so what we can check where is the problem.

Even if the wallet would not check, the blockchain should not accept the transaction anyways, should it?

It shouldn't be accepted by the wallet or the network.  Without a transaction ID, or the address, I have a very difficult time believing it.

What wallet was used?  Please post the transaction ID and address (NOT the private key of course).

I think the OP just created the account and to post something he created a useless thread and posted some 2 post giving one reply and gone off, just to make the account activate he posted the post and now he is not their.

That depends on what exactly you pasted and what wallet you used to send the transaction.

Please share with us as many of the following as you are willing to so that we can better answer your question:

• Address you intended to send to
• Address in your wallet that you originally received the bitcoins into
• Which wallet software you are using
• Transaction ID of the transaction that you sent
• The 69 characters that you pasted into the address field when you sent the transaction
