Then unfortunately there's nothing you can do.Only they have the private key to the address you sent it to so they're the only ones that can help you.
If they do want to help you then you're out of luck.

You'll have to contact the people at Dekado.io, they're the only ones that can help you.
Funny joke. 150 million dollars gone. "very upsetting" 
But Dekado is not help me about this.
You sent BTC using shapeshift, so does that mean even if you didn't send BTC "with" trezor, you can use this technique?
The page https://trezor.io/recover-coins/ show only litecoin, BTC, BCH, so that doesn't apply for other altcoins?
In most of the altcoins, you can't make this kind of mistake. You can't send Ripple to a Ethereum address for example.The page https://trezor.io/recover-coins/ show only litecoin, BTC, BCH, so that doesn't apply for other altcoins?
The most common case is where a user sent LTC to a BTC address or vice versa. And you can only use the tool if you own the address the coins are stuck. E.g: you withdrawal 10 LTC from your local exchange and sent them to your BTC address by mistake.
I did this yesterday on shapeshift. accidentally put my bch address instead of my btc address to receive btc. the confirmations went thru and i figured it was lost. so i can actually retrieve them? i also have some bitcoin cash coins in that address, do i have to worry about those coins being corrupt bc bitcoin coins in there? i use a trezor and just emailed support. is there anything i can do to get my btc?
thanks for help

That's very handy indeed if you own a Trezor, but doesn't work if you don't have one.
To use the recovery tool you need a Trezor plugged in.
Thanks for sharing anyhow!

very upsetting

Kindly correct the above statement as I am pretty sure you never meant to say 15000 btc
. May be you would want to say 15000 satoshi or 15k$? I think their should be ideally a way that if it is not sent to correct address it should either not allow itself in first place to send or should return back form the senders address if sent to incorrect address.I recently sent BTC from my Zebpay account to my Dekado.io websit wallet BCH (bitcoin cash) address 1AziDkHsVSv4uq1VQfVBNMRCq1VbzcBJ3n. this transaction show in blockchain " Unspent ".

I did the same thing on Coinbase... their website is setup entirely to take advantage of this as when you click on receive it does not give you any warning for BCH, while if you click on either BTS or ETH you get a warning...
Fack so annoying

Binance won't be able to assist you in any meaningful way. They have nothing to do with the receiving address. Given the issues Coinbase are having relating to BCH trading and such, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a quick response... Their support seems to be very overloaded at the moment 
Your only option is patience

HCP .. thank you for the reply. Ive sent Kucoin a message... just a waiting game to see what they say. Im new to the whole Bitcoin / crypto. My first f**k up so far... hopefully last one!
Hi MrTree... I am also in the same situation. actually sent BTC from binance.com to BCH address in coinbase.com. sent messages to both binance and Coinbase.
did you get any reply from Coinbase regarding your issue.
You'll need to contact coinbase and ask them for assistance. They're the only ones with access to the private keys required to recover those coins.
If coinbase won't help, then there is no way for you to recover those coins.

I just tried to transfer BTC from Exodus to Coinbase but accidentally used BCH address on coinbase and now I've lost all my funds. Any one got any sort of help whatsoever???

Get the private key out for that address and import it into a wallet such as electroncash[1] in order to be able to recover it. 1. https://electroncash.org/#downld
OP: download Electrum[1], and when creating your wallet choose: Standard Wallet -> Use publir or private keys -> Paste your private key and click Next. Send your Bitcoins to your correct address and it's done.

... You can't recover any BCH sent to a segwit address starting with 3, I'm not sure if that is even possible, BCH miners would ignore that TX and it shall come back to your wallet.
It IS possible... The miners won't ignore the transaction as you are simply sending to a (valid) P2SH address. The transaction is completely valid according to the validation rules on the BCH network. The network doesn't care what the underlying "script" for the P2SH address is until you attempt to spend it... Which is why you can't recover BCH sent to a SegWit address.
Can you please direct me to that service?
What service? did you also accidentally and totally by mistake sent BTC to a BCH address? Good to know that BCH addresses are the same old bitcoin addresses, And you could recover any BTC if you've sent them to a BCH address, You can't recover any BCH sent to a segwit address starting with 3, I'm not sure if that is even possible, BCH miners would ignore that TX and it shall come back to your wallet.
