[Question] France — has anyone got a straight answer on network
Genuine question, and the title is the question: France — has anyone got a straight answer on network.
Nearly sent on the wrong network. The token symbol was identical and the address format was the only clue.
Sent a test amount first on a large order. Cost me a fraction of a percent and I have done it every time since.
Rate quotes expire because the underlying rate moves. A short expiry is ordinary; urgency about your decision is a separate signal and should be read separately.
Happy to answer the boring questions. Those are usually the ones worth asking.
best — the order this archive was captured in
The transaction hash is the canonical receipt: it is public, verifiable by either party, and it is what a support query should quote.
Confirmation took forty minutes on a busy evening and I had already written half an angry message. Deleted it.
Careful, that address format belongs to a different chain and sending to it would not end well.
Correction: that address format is not the chain you named. Worth checking before anybody follows this.
Small fix — that is the network fee, not a supplier charge. The distinction matters for the complaint you are making.
Left up. It has a hash, a chain and a timeline, which is what a payment report needs.
Got a quote with a fifteen-minute expiry and assumed it was a pressure tactic. It was just a held rate.
Correcting myself upthread: it was 24 confirmations, not the number I posted, and it settled fine.
Push back: an unconfirmed transaction is not a missing payment. Wait for confirmations before escalating.
Push back: an unconfirmed transaction is not a missing payment.
Disagreeing here: that is a network fee at a busy hour and it is not the supplier’s doing.
Keep every transaction hash in a note file with the order reference. It has resolved two queries instantly.
Same. Asking which networks are accepted before ordering has saved me twice.
Did you send a test amount first?
Agreed that quote expiry is ordinary. Rates move and a time-limited quote is not a pressure tactic on its own.
Right, and confirmations are the status. "Sent" means nothing until the chain agrees.
Pasted rather than typed the address, then checked the first and last six characters. Habit now.
Escrow is not standard in this space. Wanting it is reasonable; expecting it as default is not.
the supplier cannot reverse it and neither can you
a payment sent on the wrong network is usually gone
Yes — the same token symbol on two chains catches people constantly and it is unrecoverable.
ask which networks they actually accept before you order
