Where do you get your BTC address from? It might be possible that you copied your address wrongly, just a possibility, or your address requires some deposit fee and it may have caused some trouble when the BTC was sent.
Do you mind telling more details about your wallet address? (Exchange site, online wallet... etc)
of course Do you mind telling more details about your wallet address? (Exchange site, online wallet... etc)
i'm using block.io for both litecoin and bitcoin
check :https://block.io/
block.io is really secure and i had no issue with it in the past !
i did many exchanges from litecoin to bitcoin using other exchanges with no issue !
you can check my address on the order https://shapeshift.io/#/status/4d4c2e03-87c7-461a-b0e8-ea1b5cdd1c47
it's :3JM51zK1QM9sqHkD1jysBmdAamoDPXJNLr
Now i sent to myself 0.1 btc and it worked
check : https://blockchain.info/address/3JM51zK1QM9sqHkD1jysBmdAamoDPXJNLr
so it shouldn't be an issue for them to exchange 44ltc and send them!!

Shapeshift is definitely a legit company and they have dealt with way more than 44 litecoins in the past. In fact their average daily volume is counted in hundreds and thousands of bitcoins, not a few bitcoins. It could be an error with their bitcoin wallet, i'm not sure how they would send you a false blockchain tx id though, maybe it's a bug or something that they don't know about.
What I suggest you do:
1. Wait patiently for your request to be handled. Trust me, they will handle it eventually.
2. PM their forum account: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/shapeshiftio-314825
3. Comment on their announcement thread.
There is just so many bitcoin public personalities out there involved with shapeshift.io, they wouldn't risk their reputation for a measly 44 LTC. Chill out. Bestchange is simply a platform for you to find the best exchanger available, and shapeshift i'd say is one of the most trusted. They've done nothing wrong.

i messaged them on their profile but nothing !
many people tell me they are legit company but what is happening here?
maybe they don't have support?
*then why they have support system !!!
maybe their support don't understand the errors and can't solve issues ?
*what they are doing in money exchange website ?
maybe their system is full automatic and they can't deal with errors or they don't have permission ?
*then they contact someone with permission to manually send ?
my situation is really bad 7-8 days with no pocket money
the eid al fatter (Muslim Christmas ) passed and i didn't buy anything or go anywhere .

OP is definitely telling the truth. From reference link I copied BTC address; checking on blockchain
https://blockchain.info/address/3JM51zK1QM9sqHkD1jysBmdAamoDPXJNLr
No transactions! This is theft. Return address is irrelevant because reference link says, successfully exchanged!
Let's not use Shapeshift until resolved, their system must have a problem!
OP - they have good reputation, don't be too worried

i needed this money so hard at that time.
i hop their system have problem too
but why they ignore me?

Shapeshift.io is Erik Voorhees site. I sincerely doubt he would mess up his long-standing reputation over 44 LTC. Give it a little while it should be fixed.

Wait for 4-5 days and if they still don't reply, then better forget about your LTC.
Bitcointalk mods/staffs don't deal with Bitcoin services other than what they are involved in. Also, there is no ban for scammers. There are DefaultTrust users, who will give negative trust to ShapeShift account if it's not solved properly.

I think much better to wait more days i think 4 or 5 days if they are still not reply this site confirm scam. Since you already wait for 3 days you need to wait more 4-5 days if they didn't reply anything the owner can be receive negative trust here on forum ..
The account last active June 24, 2017, 01:25:42 PM
So we will see if they will be online after end of 4 to 5 days and should pm him to resolve the issue ..
You can contact other DT here to give negative trust but they always need to confirm first after they online..
