Sent your crypto to the wrong address? Binance can fix that. For money.
an ask-me-anything session with users on Reddit. Of particular interest was a discussion that arose regarding retrieval fees for crypto sent on different networks than the recipient’s wallet address on Binance. According to u/Maxx3141, who brought up the issue:
“I accidentally send WETH [wrapped Ether] to my Polygon address two months ago. Your exchange supports Polygon, but just for MATIC. It was only like 100$ in value. I found out you previously could recover this for a 30$ fee, and I thought that was fine. But when I contacted you, I found out you just raised the fee to 500 BUSD.”
Another Redditor, u/Superb_Dragonfruit63, also raised the issue of having to pay 500 Binance USD for crypto retrievals on unmatched transactions, to which the Binance staff responded: "Token retrieval requires tech and operating effort, which is why we charge a certain fee for processing. It would cost similar effort and time regardless of the value. Thank you for the feedback; we will continue to review our fee structure as we progress."
Unlike noncustodial wallets, wallets on centralized exchanges require matching the deposit network addresses of the sender and the recipient. Thus, accidents such as sending unlisted tokens or coins on different networks that are otherwise compatible result in the funds failing to appear on the exchange's user interface. Instead, exchange staff must manually access their wallet address to recover the funds.
