Topic: I send bitcoin from MultiBit but they never arrived (Read 709 times)

Yup. So unless he gave you his address wrong, which is his fault, or you typed it in incorrectly, then he must've recieved the funds, and if not, it's his fault.

It is possible the recipient was using mtgox to receive the funds, and mtgox was having issues again lol.

Anyway, if OP checks blockchain.info (or the other sites I posted) and finds the tx confirmed, then it is pretty much the recipient's responsibility to fix problem on his end.

The address 18WpKm37afaQnB1y7PDzRtngurnUqaP2NS definitely received the bitcoins.

If the recipient says the bitcoins aren't showing up in their wallet, there are a few possibilities.

It is possible that the recipient accidentally gave you the wrong bitcoin address.  If he is new to bitcoin, he may have made the mistake of looking at the wrong tab in his wallet and gave you an address of someone that he has sent bitcoins to in the past instead of an address that will receive bitcoins in his wallet. 

It is possible that you accidentally used the wrong address.  Perhaps the recipient gave you the correct address, and you attempted to use copy/paste to send the bitcoins.  Perhaps the "copy" failed, and when you used paste the most recent address from your clipboard was used.  Are you certain that 18WpKm37afaQnB1y7PDzRtngurnUqaP2NS was the address that the recipient wanted you to use?

It is possible that the recipient is using Bitcoin-Qt and his wallet hasn't finished synchronizing yet.  In this case, he will have to wait for the synchronization to complete before he can see the bitcoins in his wallet.

It is possible that the recipient is using MultiBit and the wallet needs to be reset.  MultiBit has a known issue where it will occasionally not notice a transaction.  Because this issue is so common, there are instructions on the MultiBit website explaining how to reset the wallet when it occurs.

It is possible that the recipient is using some other wallet and their wallet is damaged.  If the recipient is not using Bitcoin-Qt or MultiBit and they are certain that their wallet is fully caught up with the blockchain, then they may have a damaged wallet file that needs repair.  They should seek assistance from others who are experts on the wallet that they are using.

It is possible that the recipient is lying to you.

(There may be other possibilities that I have not thought of).

He must have recieved them, use this as proof: https://blockchain.info/tx/204f4f96d9198ba89b303fc818aaece638de992bcf1b61cfd9b829c77e27285c

lol this is funny

OP, next time you can make a search on https://blockchain.info/ or http://blockexplorer.com/ or http://blockr.io/

If you can find the tx on these sites, you will know your recipient must have received it.

Yeah, your transaction does show up. So your recipient is lying.
Is it TX ID: 204f4f96d9198ba89b303fc818aaece638de992bcf1b61cfd9b829c77e27285c

The adress is 18WpKm37afaQnB1y7PDzRtngurnUqaP2NS
Can I post the blockchain.info here?

The recipient may be lying, or you sent it to the wrong address. What is the address? You can check it on blockchain.info.

I send bitcoin from MultiBit but they never arrived. It is 9 hours ago I sent 0,327 BTC (300$) but the recipient says he didn't receive it.
In MultiBit it says "Transaction confirmed" and a green check-symbol. It also says "Seen by 6 peers".
So is the recipient lying? Or how long does a transfer normally take?

MultiBit is installed on my pc, not Android app.
