Electrum Wallet not receiving transfer

[NEWNEW$$$]

I'm having an issue... sent funds from my Bitcoin app (iphone) to a QR Code address that I have in Electrum... Transaction ID 96747021559f66479b8b7732ff9c6d4c3aff8422884a642a72a6207f934aa877

The funds haven't been credited to my Electrum wallet and its been 18 hours. I've transferred this way a few times and its worked until now.

Also, sorry if my question is dumb, I'm very much a novice here.

Also getting "Error getting transaction from network: The server returned an error" message when I try to load the transaction from blockchain.

The legacy address shown here matches whats in my electrum wallet https://explorer.bitcoin.com/bch/address/bitcoincash:qz0fxemj9p69p8p57wehyv08zawyhk2l2vz3nlv6ur

1. You don't send funds to a wallet software, you send to an address. The funds will also not leave the blockchain. I'm telling you this because many live with this confusion that sometimes makes them lose funds.
2. What you sent with that transaction was not Bitcoin. After some research I've found your transaction, you've sent Bitcoin Cash. That's an altcoin with another blockchain and since Electrum looks on Bitcoin's blockchain, it cannot see neither your transaction, nor your funds. You'll have to use that private key from Electrum with another wallet that works on BCash network to access your funds.

Do you mean Electron (the BCH version of Electrum wallet)? Because the TXID you posted is returning a bitcoincash transaction. See here:

Can you also tell us which version are you using and check whether the wallet is properly connected to a server? (see the color of the icon on the bottom right side).

I think I'm following.

Is there a BCash wallet you recommend?

Also, thanks!

Unfortunately fro you, I've used BCash wallet only once and that was long ago.
However, as OmegaStarScream said, an option may be Electron Cash, which looks like Electrum and it's for BCash.

And since you probably wanted to get Bitcoin, I'd say that you'll have to exchange these for Bitcoin and maybe use another website than bitcoin[dot]com, which tricks people into buying their altcoin and believing they've bought Bitcoin. (just make sure you are sending these coins to BCash wallets)

Ok I have an Electron Cash profile now, imported the address and can see the transaction/balance.

Problem is it says "This wallet is watching-only"; not sure what to do now.

The problem is that you have imported the address instead of the private key.

How are you supposed to sign a transaction without the private key? It doesn't work.

Import the private key instead.

Thanks yall! Got it.
