Your address: https://blockchain.info/address/1QYBTf2tDgyzc6GA8w4ycef7HjWoPgk6j

shows a balance of just over 0.025 BTC... received in 4 transactions dated: 5th, 9th, and two on the 16th April. There have been ZERO outgoing transactions from that address... so assuming that the address is actually yours, then the coins are safe.

Can you actually see that address displayed in your Electrum on the "Addresses" tab?

If so, you might need to shut down Electrum, then find and delete the "blockchain_headers" file from your Electrum data directory and then restart Electrum and let it resync.

I'm using the latest version of electrum 3.1.2, my transaction ID is 409ee94f6e32a58617eeba5ca44fc185d0aadead32a9ec3fa097e9ec39305714
My receive code is 1QYBTf2tDgyzc6GA8w4ycef7HjWoPgk6j
I've jumped from server to server and even left it on all night with a green dot in the corner, I copy and pasted my receive ID from coin base on to note pad then the same one from my actual electrum wallet directly underneath it to compare all the characters and they're identical.
Coin base says its confirmed and I spoke to them via email and they said it should be in there, Ive checked all my wallets and all of the addresses and the last time I had anything go out of my electrum was on the 12th which was 4 days before I bought these bit coins so I know it can't be theft and the wallet I have open is for BTC/mBTC.

The first step would be to check your address in a blockexplorer [1] and check if the transaction has been confirmed already ('X confirmations' or 'unconfirmed').
If it has been confirmed, your coins have arrived.

It mostly is a network/sync issue. Do you see the dot at the lower right corner? Is it red (disconnected) or green (connected)?

What version of electrum are you using? The current one is 3.1.2, you should update electrum if you don't have the current version.


[1] e.g. blocktrail, blockcypher or blockchain.info

Hey I'm new to this forum so forgive me if I'm being ignorant to the rules, I transferred funds from Coinbase into my electrum wallet about 10 hours ago and the unconfirmed balance/ any kind of balance is not visible on electrum, block chain says it is done (I think) can anyone help me please? In a bit of a panic lol

Do you have a multiple wallet in your Electrum? just make sure you open the right wallet that belong to the address you send to.

There's a few options on what could be going wrong here, first off did you set up a segwit address or a legacy wallet? If you withdrew before the segwit upgrade the transaction might not have completed. Assuming that's not the case then;

1. Your Electrum might not have synchronized, does it have a green marker in the bottom right corner?
2. You simply entered the wrong address, check your receiving address in your electrum wallet and make sure once of them matches the address you withdrew to on Coinbase
3. You might have opened the wrong type of wallet in Electrum, there are multiple versions of Electrum some of these are for other crypto coins. Please post your transaction ID so we can check the address format

Most likely the transaction simply hasn't been processed by Coinbase yet.

If your transaction sent from coinbase and you have TXID it must be shown in your electrum wallet even the transaction still not confirm.

Since you said it's done and confirmed(should be 3 confirmation or more) it should show up in your electrum wallet history.

My guess maybe your electrum wallet is blocked from your internet connection or you use a fake electrum wallet.

Could you share with us if where did you download the electrum wallet?

Can you post the txid and/or the recieving address of the transaction?

Do coinbase say it's confirmed. Does Electrum say "Not Connected", "Syncronising"... or anything at the very bottom (can you screenshot the electrum window and put it somewhere like imgur and link it here)?

What version of electrum are you running and what's your operating system also?
