Ahhhhhh. I missed a part in your original post.  Sorry, it makes sense now.

I've not used any sites like that.  Have you looked for a contact address?  I'd try to contact them.  You could find the transaction easily enough.  Ultimately, it'd be up to them.

I was on Satoshi36 and I put in the wrong address because they have a adress that changes and I forgot to replace it. It has not been confirmed yet can I cancell it?

You cannot cancel it. Bitcoin transactions are final. They cannot be canceled or reversed. You must contact the people running the site and tell them that you sent the money to the wrong address. I don't know anything about the site, but they might be able to fix it if they own the address that you sent it to.

And you don't have access to that old address any longer, I'm guessing.  Sad

I feel ya.  I've pretty much given up on mining and gone to buying.  I considered getting some USB Eruptors but I realized that there'd probably be no way that I'd recoup the expense.  Better just to buy when I can.

But when you send, it's sent.  There's no reversing.

So you sent it to an old address or a wrong address?

How was the address input? By hand? Or was it cut-and-pasted?
