Understanding Wrong UID Transfers in Poppo Live
Wrong UID transfers occur when coins reach unintended recipients due to incorrect User Identification Number entry. Poppo Live UIDs are 7-10 digit numeric strings prefixed by ID: that vary by server: S28/S29 use 7-8 digits, S16 displays 8-10 digits, S31 uses 9-10 digits.
When purchasing through BitTopup, you'll get UID verification features that confirm recipient details before finalizing transactions.
Common Error Causes
Username confusion: 70% of mistakes occur when users assume display names work instead of numeric UIDs.
Digit transposition: 20-30% of errors happen with longer 9-10 digit UIDs, especially on mobile keyboards.
Display/cache issues: 20% of errors stem from completing purchases without active login sessions or outdated browser cache.
Why Instant Reversals Don't Exist
Poppo Live's system delivers coins within seconds of purchase confirmation. Once coins integrate with recipient accounts, the platform can't unilaterally withdraw funds without recipient consent due to digital property rights. Recovery depends entirely on timing—catching errors during the pending window or navigating post-delivery investigation.
The Critical 5-Minute Cancel Window
Pending window: 1-5 minutes for standard transactions, extending to 10-15 minutes during peak usage.
Recovery odds: 20-30% if transaction remains pending, 0% after delivery completes.
Cancellation Steps
- Navigate to Settings > Wallet > Transaction History immediately after purchase
- Locate the transaction with Pending status indicator
- Tap the transaction to view details
- Select Cancel Transaction button (only appears during pending window)
- Confirm cancellation in verification dialog
- Coins return to your balance within 30-60 seconds
Cancel Window Limitations
- Function disappears once coins reach recipient's account
- Processing speed varies (60 seconds to 5 minutes)
- Promotional events or special packages may restrict cancellation
- Fraud-flagged transactions require manual support review
- Frequent cancellers face temporary restrictions
After the 5-Minute Window: Recovery Request
Optimal reporting: Within 24 hours of transaction (reports within 7 days still considered).
Contact channels:
- In-app: Settings > Help & Support > Contact Us (1-3 hour response)
- Email: support@poppo.live (Android) or support@poppo-ios.com (iOS) (3-6 hour response)
Required Evidence
Transaction ID screenshot: 12-16 character alphanumeric string from purchase confirmation or transaction history.
Correct UID screenshot: Access Me tab, long-press ID label under profile picture, screenshot showing full UID with ID: prefix.
Transaction history screenshot: Settings > Wallet > Transaction History showing timestamp, recipient UID, coin amount, and status.
Current balance screenshot: With visible timestamp establishing transaction impact.
BitTopup users can access additional verification through platform order history for supplementary evidence.
Submission Format
Structure your message with:
- Transaction details (ID, timestamp, amount)
- Error description (intended vs actual recipient UID)
- Numbered screenshots
- Your account UID, registered email, preferred contact method
- Specific request (refund, coin recovery, or investigation)
Don't submit multiple requests—duplicates slow processing.
The 24-72 Hour Investigation Timeline
Most cases resolve within 48 hours from submission to final communication.
Phase 1: Initial Verification (0-12 Hours)
Support staff:
- Confirm transaction exists in platform records
- Verify account ownership
- Check for previous recovery requests
- Validate coins delivered to stated wrong UID
- Assess recipient account status (existence, registration date, activity level, coin balance)
Phase 2: Recipient Investigation (12-48 Hours)
Investigators:
- Contact recipient via in-app notifications and email
- Request voluntary coin return (recipients have 24-48 hours to respond)
- Analyze if coins were spent, gifted, or remain in balance
- Document recipient cooperation level
Platform can't force returns but facilitates voluntary cooperation.
Phase 3: Resolution (48-72 Hours)
Support compiles findings and determines outcome based on recipient cooperation, coin availability, and platform policy.
Full resolution timeline: 3-7 days from initial request Refund processing: Additional 5-14 days for financial reconciliation
Timeline Factors
Faster resolution:
- Inactive recipient accounts (no recent login)
- Responsive recipients agreeing to return
- Simple single-transaction errors
Extended timeline:
- Unresponsive recipients (full 72 hours)
- Multiple transactions or third-party processors
- High-value transactions exceeding 10,000 coins (add 12-24 hours)
Recovery Odds: Success Determinants
Overall statistics:
- 5-10% partial recovery with recipient cooperation
- 0% recovery for completed deliveries where recipients refuse or spent coins
- 99% denial rate for user error refunds
Inactive UID: Highest Success
Accounts with no login for 30+ days or newly created accounts (under 7 days, fewer than 5 transactions) offer best recovery odds. Coins typically remain untouched, allowing potential account holds during investigation.
Active UID with Cooperation
5-10% achieve partial recovery when recipients acknowledge mistakes and agree to return. Platform facilitates voluntary returns by crediting your account while debiting recipient's balance, but only with explicit consent.
Active UID Without Cooperation
Recipients refusing return or ignoring communications represent most failed attempts. Platform terms don't obligate returns, treating situations as sender error. Recipients claiming they spent coins create unresolvable disputes.
Account Status Impact
Sender accounts: Established accounts (6+ months, clean records) receive more thorough investigations than new accounts facing fraud scrutiny.
Recipient accounts: Verified accounts with extensive histories face lower recovery odds than unverified new accounts triggering automatic fraud checks.
Prevention Strategies
Copy-Paste UID Method (90-95% Error Reduction)
- Access recipient's profile
- Tap Me tab at bottom right
- Long-press ID label under profile picture
- Copy UID to clipboard
- Paste into transaction field (never type manually)
- Verify 7-10 digit numeric string matches server format
- Cross-reference first 3-4 digits with previous transactions if available
Level 5 Account Requirement
Reach Level 5 within 1-2 days (requires ~500 experience points from daily logins, profile completion, minimal social interaction) to unlock full UID display. Lower levels show truncated UIDs with asterisks, making verification impossible.
Double-Check System
Before confirming:
- Verify UID format correctness
- Cross-reference UID with recipient profile
- Check transaction amount matches intended value
- Review final confirmation screen
- Confirm displayed username matches intended recipient
Mismatches indicate wrong UID or account changes—stop immediately.

Expert Tips for Maximum Recovery
Act Fast
- Keep transaction history screen open after purchase
- Refresh every 15-20 seconds during first 2 minutes
- Set 3-minute timer for important transactions
- Check cancellation availability before window closes
Document Immediately
- Take screenshots within first hour
- Capture details while fresh in system logs
- Screenshot before recipients potentially spend coins
- Timestamp screenshots using device settings
Professional Communication
Use factual statements, specific details, clear requests. Avoid emotional language or threats. Acknowledge platform limitations: I understand the platform can't force returns, but I'm requesting investigation into voluntary return possibility.
Strategic Follow-Up
- Wait full 72 hours before follow-up inquiries
- Send single polite status inquiry if no updates received
- Request detailed denial explanations
- Ask if additional evidence would change determination
Partial Recovery Evaluation
Accept partial offers based on amount at stake vs continued pursuit likelihood. Transactions under 500 coins rarely justify extensive pursuit beyond initial 72-hour investigation. Transactions exceeding 5,000 coins warrant persistent effort including formal complaints.

What evidence do I need for recovery?
Four screenshots: payment receipt with transaction ID, your profile showing correct UID, transaction history entry with timestamp, current balance with timestamp. Include account UID, registered email, description of intended vs actual recipient.
What's the success rate for recovery?
