HTX Returned 100K STEEM, Thank you!

in #crypto2 days ago (edited)

Last year (actually last month (2024-12-10), I sent 102723 STEEM to HTX with wrong memo. I messed up with MEMO and Amount: see this post

And I immediately fired a support ticket. I have uploaded 3 videos in total - and today (2025-01-16) I've got the refund.

The cost is 0.04 ETH ~ 132.92 USD as of today. (Processing Refund Fee).

Thank you!

One good advice in general: always triple check your memo and amount. And, transfer programmatically if possible!

Steem to the Moon🚀!

I would have had a heart attack if I had sent that amount of Steem incorrectly. I'm glad it was returned to you, it speaks well of the platform, despite the delay.

Sure.. please write more next time, as it was skipped due to less than 100 characters.

A friend made that same mistake last week on Binance (sending Steem without memo), but after filling a report on their customer support, they reverse it after 4 days.

I learnt other exchange wouldn't have done that.., I don't know how true this is..., but Binance won our trust last week after reversing the fund.

Did Binance charge a fee when reversing the transaction?

Yes, they did(for 8000 Steem, they charge 0.01 Steem). But it was better than not having the fund at all again.

Wow... 0.01 steem is basically nothing... In my case, HTX charges a 0.04 ETH for processing the refund.

0.01 steem is basically nothing...

Exactly! This is actually not a big deal. Even if it were to be 5 Steem for the charges..

HTX charges a 0.04 ETH for processing the refund.

That's huge. That's a lot of money

Excellent to hear @justyy !!🤗
