i think that your case will not end well, because you forgot to input the memo as bybit instructed and that resulted in your account not being deposited, and because of this bybit will think that you are in the wrong here. because i also had something like that, where i deposited bitcoin into remitano, but because my deposit value was lower than what they instructed, it resulted in my account failing to deposit, and customer service actually blamed me for not paying attention to their instructions and not helping me at all. .

but hopefully you can still save your bitcoins by contacting them from their twitter. but if they can't help, it's better to just let it go.

I think that email is 100% legit. From your explanation, the refund has already been done by Bybit back to Kucoin Exchange, which you have also submitted back to a Kucoin representative. All you need to do now is follow up on the case and make sure you provide all the necessary information they need in order for them to complete that process. 
 
Last I recall, Binance exchange charges even up to $500 or by percentage for the wrong deposit depending on which one will be higher, so if you check very well and the fee that you are asked to pay is not higher than the money you are trying to recover, then I will say it's worth the chance to give it a try.

I don't know what could have caused this, but on some occasions of related issues I've seen with others, maybe they are not keeping to their minimal deposit rate or something related, but considering this, the $40 fee charge they are billing you could even make you to drop the whole charges if you considered the amount involved to how much you're going to be charged for the rectification, this is sometimes annoying, honestly, you're just lucky of not sending to the wrong address.

Kucoin was successfully sent to Bybit but the funds were not credited to Bybit due to missing memo tag.

Bybit is ready to refund the money so now you need to contact Bybit right? Or am I missing something?

And if you sorted things with Bybit follow the process that you have been asked cause it looks like you contacted the official site and they have a certain set of procedures to recover the lost funds then you have to do it.

I think OP seeks help from Bybit, because you sent that money to Bybit exchange but the problem is due to a process mistake so you can also complain to them.

I once encountered a situation that was probably similar to the OP, I used USDT money transfer a few years ago (don't remember the exact time) but it was a wrong chain transaction, but when I filed a complaint, I was still confirmed and received enough money. However, I still want to mention the user story more carefully. In this situation, if they are willing to refund your account, that is a good thing, but if the situation is bad, they will not accept that situation, then you should also consider it a valuable lesson to help you be more careful.

AFAIK, The problem is already on Bybit exchange control since Kucoin already sent the funds on Bybit wallet address unless your withdrawal on Kucoin is still marked as processing. Bybit already received your funds but they can’t credit it to your account because you didn’t include the Memo.

The Memo gives the distinction for a transaction credited specifically for your account. I think you just need to contact Bybit support and send the TXID so that they will credit the balance to your account. I hope it helps.

If it's from the official email of kucoin, they can really help you out. I think most of the exchanges have that retrieval fee for any help that their users are going to ask. But if they've said that the transaction pushed through and it's already on bybit, then I doubt they'd give you a refund.
So, you should be keep on making noise and keep on contacting them. Please check their global and country communities.

If there is any Kucoin representative here should say something on this email or if anyone has anything to say can contribute if this is legit. What should I do?

We have a KuCoin representative on this forum, you can see here, but unfortunately that account has been inactive for a long time and was last seen at the end of last year. I'm confused about your case, you say that you deposit Bitcoin (BTC) and then send it to Bybit which should use memo, AFAIK we don't need memo for Bitcoin (BTC) transaction, is it a coin transaction like EOS?

Have you tried posting on bybit subreddit? or /r/cryptocurrency. Or tweeted to them about it?

They also have telegram and Discord (https://discord.gg/Bybit), which usually have admins that can direct you to right person, that could help you.
Just don't reply to any direct messages on telegram or discord, as there are ton of people pretending to be a staff. Those will scam you.

But your money is in Bybit, now you need to try to convice them to help you, as that's extra work for them, and not their fault, but they have a power to help you.

Hopefully this will help. And i know the frustration. Helpdesk that doesn't have any humans involved is enraging.

I have created it in another forum. https://www.altcoinstalks.com/index.php?topic=322058.new#new

About a month now, I bought bitcoin from someone and deposited them in Kucoin. And converted it to USDT And I sent the coins to ByBit exchange and I didn't include the Memo Tag from the ByBit end and the coins didn't arrive in the receiving address of ByBit. Then I contacted Kucoin they told me that the coins have left their exchange and transaction was successfully approved from the receiving address. Therefore I should contact ByBit customer service and I didn't that but ByBit has no direct customer live chat and everything was done through bot. I have been battling with them on this case for a while. And two days back, I chatted up Kucoin customer service, I still complain again and they said I should ask ByBit to provide the refund TXID which I went to the self service and checked the form I submitted and saw the refund TXID. Then I contacted Kucoin back to make the refund.

And I presented every information to Kucoin to make the refund but this is what Kucoin representative said and sent to my emails after a long live chat with one of the agents.
See what he said, and I quote.
