What Do I Do If My Bittrex Account Has the Wrong Balance?

May 17, 2022

If you checked your Bittrex account and found that it has the wrong balance, you may be panicking about your missing funds. Fortunately, there may be something you can do to recover them. Read on to learn more.

Reasons Why Your Balance Is Wrong

There are three potential reasons why your balance is too low. One is trying to deposit STEEM, CryptoNote, or any other coin that requires a message, tag, or memo to complete the deposit without the required message, tag or memo.

The second is a crosschain deposit, in which you tried to deposit one kind of coin in a wallet meant for another kind. You will need to pay a $1,000 recovery fee for this kind of recovery effort. Bittrex will only try to recover the following types of crosschain deposit:

  • BTC to BCH

  • BTC to BSV

  • BCH to BTC

  • BSV to BTC

  • ETH to ETC

The company might decide to recover other crosschain deposits if requested, but it also may not. If it does, it will require a recovery fee that will be determined at the time of the request. However, Bittrex will never attempt to recover a BCH to BSV or a BSV to BCH crosschain deposit.

The third reason why your balance may be low is if you did not remove your coins from a wallet that you then closed. This requires a $2,500 recovery fee.

How to Request a Recovery for a Deposit Made With a Missing Message/Memo/Tag

  1. Go to the Bittrex Help with Deposits form.

  2. Click on the menu that says Help with Deposits. It will have just one item, reading "Please click here to create a ticket."

  3. Click on the item.

  4. Enter the required information.

  5. Attach any relevant files.

  6. Click on the Submit button.

How to Request a Crosschain Deposit or Closed Wallet Recovery

  6. Attach any relevant files.

Why does GetHuman Write How-to Guides for Bittrex Problems?

GetHuman has been working for over 10 years on sourcing information about big organizations like Comcast in order to help customers resolve customer service issues faster. We started with contact information and fastest ways to reach a human at big companies. Particularly ones with slow or complicated IVR or phone menu systems. Or companies that have self-serve help forums instead of a customer service department. From there, we realized that consumers still needed more detailed help solving the most common problems, so we expanded to this set of guides, which grows every day. And if you spot any issues with our What do I do if my Xfinity TV or internet is out? guide, please let us know by sending us feedback. We want to be as helpful as possible. If you appreciated this guide, please share it with your favorite people. Our free information and tools is powered by you, the customer. The more people that use it, the better it gets.
