Today’s post will be all about my Monday and the problems I encountered. Who knows, I might see answers to my questions. I explained how the early part of my Monday was in my previous article. I was in a school for the International girl child celebration. You can check yesterday’s article for more details.
Please before going further, this article is all about the problems I faced, the solved ones and the unsolved ones. It might be boring or not up to your expectations. But as they say “Desperate times call for desperate actions” hence my reason for writing this.
Transaction failed
Things started going downhill when a friend said he wants to buy some BCH and USDT. He asked for my help and I wasn’t willing to sell from my holding so I decided to use my remitano app. I gave him the account he is to send the money into but waited for hours without receiving notification of payment. He sent the receipt to me but the app didn’t deposit the BCH into the wallet dropped.
Within few minutes i received a notification that the transaction has been aborted but the money was deducted from his account. How do i explain to him that the money he sent got lost in transit?. This was a deal i was doing for free because of how close we are but it seems i will end up paying for something i don't know anything about.
Metamask log in issue
My worries got compounded when I tried logging into my metamask and it kept on giving an error note, it says it’s due to storage limitations. I was advised to uninstall and install it back. Which I did. Importing the former wallet became a hard nut to crack. I tried several times to no avail and it affected the rest of the day. I missed out in some airdrop and also was unable to partake in some token presale. That’s the least of my worry though. It’s how to get the wallet back that’s on my mind.
Power outage
Seems all forces were out to frustrate me. I couldn't interact well on both noisecash and readcash. My battery was down, system down , power bank down. I brought out the Generator but it chose monday as the day to stop working. Better i go back to bed. Because this is turning out to be a bad day.
REMITANO REACHED OUT TO ME
I received a mail from the app explaining the reasons why I didn’t receive the BCH and USDT in the wallet I dropped. The site has a policy of protecting users’ accounts. Hence only the ID registered can deposit money into it. The identity card you use in verifying your account must tally with the account making the deposit. This is so because of the current ban on cryptocurrency transactions by banks in the country.
I’ve been instructed on how to go about it and will do that in the coming days. Problem 1 solved.
Alternative power source
Went to my uncle's house to charge my devices with his Solar power. He mustn't know of this . I hope he doesn't read this.lol
METAMASK WALLET RECOVERY
Since the app is misbehaving on my phone I decided to use a PC. I installed the metamask extension and typed in the seed phrase but it says it’s invalid. I have the seed phrase and keys with me and I haven’t given it out to anyone. lol. I hope my dear readers have a solution to this problem or an idea of what the likely problem is.
If you have any suggestions, kindly drop them in the comment section.
So that’s it. The two events almost ruined my day but as an HappyBoy, I wasn’t unfazed because I know things will turn out well. lol. Though i was a walking ghost throughout the rest of the day. On a lighter note, I wasn’t moved that much because worrying won’t solve a problem, instead it will compound the headache. And even if there's no solution -we move! I can't let a little problem affect other activities.
The day ended with a long chat with friends and virtual families.
Thanks for reading guys!😔💚🤗
