Why would you send ZEC to a Bitcoin wallet? And it can take 2 to 4 hours for an exchange to complete

Why would you not try either the free ubunta or windows zec wallet? From there you can send it to an exchange to convert to btc or what ever.

I use FreeWallet for ZEC all the time. Send a support email and they will get it fixed. They have always been good about resolving issues.

As far as I know, Xapo is a Bitcoin-only wallet.

I personally mine to Jaxx for ETH, ETC, and ZEC. Download the app on your phone and its very user-friendly and one of the most trusted multiwallets out there!

IMO, Freewallet is a good wallet. Yet, you really have to be more attentive when performing transactions.

Are you talking about Freewallet org?  
If yes, i can tell they are great SCAMMERS.

The victim creates a wallet to receive and send cryptocurrency through the Freewallet app.  
As soon as a large transfer is received on the account, the site administration transfers coins to someone else’s address.  
If the user makes a claim, he is told that he himself sent the money by mistake to the wrong wallet, and the transfer cannot be returned.  
If the client deposits a large amount, the administration blocks the account under the pretext of verification.  
During the verification process, the administration ignores requests and submitted documents, constantly sends new requests.

So it’s just a typical KYC fraud!

No, if your question was about me, then I am not going to send spam or otherwise violate the rules of the service. I just saw this discussion in a search engine and decided to respond to warn users.
