In some cases, it is quite difficult to contact the help desk by email, because the team does not respond very quickly to the user who has problems.  It is best to try with the help of the Telegram group, where representatives of the trade runs are always online and will always advise on solving your problems.

It said you cannot recover if you sent to Binance test net, but i think its worth if you try to contact Binance' support service, maybe they have solution to your problem. I hope you get the best solution to this problem

I think the best way is to contact their support or admin, because they have full access from Binance.
we can cause problems that we face and I am sure they will help give us the best service.
that is the best solution for you mate.

If Binance support won't answer your ticket, which is the most obvious scenario, just forget about it. I do not think there is a way of getting tokens back from the testnet, it is blockchain right, such actions cannot be undone.

The best solution would be contacting Binance support, they have their own mainnet and they might be able to help you retrieve those coins that sent to the testnet.

I'm doubtful that they'll help you retrieve it but gave it a shot because they're the only one that can help you in this matter.
I do not think so that this is possible, they can´t retrieve that since the testnet address is probably diffrent than mainnet address and they do not have private key from this address. You did something what is called token burn  Cheesy.
Yes, as quoted by jhenfelipe coming from Binance themselves there's no way to retrieve it.

And those coins that were sent wrongly to the testnet will be lost forever. You are correct that it can be the typical burning of token but OP did it unintentionally. With his last post, I feel bad that he's still hoping to recover it. Who knows in the future that BNB can do something about it.

Thank you for your replies. What is the next course of action you would take in the event Binance were unable to recover the coins?
There's nothing we can do mate, we just have to accept that we made a mistake and finally move on and be aware of not committing this mistake again.

The quote were given to us yesterday and it came from Binance confirming that they are no longer going to do retrieval because they've warned. But unless they have changed their mind and their support had a soft heart that their developers has a way of retrieving it.

You should not do anything, basically binance has lost its access to the token that already sent to the testnet. It just like your coin already destroyed. Binance has said if binance doesn't have ability to recover your token or coin while at the same time binance is the only party that was having the control over its blockchain.

If I were in the situation, most likely I will just accept the fact that I lost my coins/tokens and move on. They remind the users to not send mainnet tokens, they did their part and clearly I was at fault.


If you are not satisfied with what I shared above (I hope you visited the link and read the whole content), then you should contact the support and confirm it.

I hope the amount you sent wasn't that huge because unfortunately, you can't get back your coins. It was clearly stated on "Binance Chain: Things To Avoid" ↓↓↓

Please do not send any real mainnet tokens (BTC, ETH, BNB etc.) to Binance testnet. Your tokens will be lost and will be unrecoverable.

Thanks so that's it, I'm right with my doubt and contacting Binance support is helpless. OP, I guess you have to give up. Sorry to cut your hope but with that quote they've already warned from before that everyone shouldn't send any amount/crypto to the binance testnet.

How much BNB coins you've sent there?
