Thanks.
Not sending you by Pm any of the public keys because I have them in a different PC and don't want to have to copy them manually to then stick them here or transfer them to a USB stick to later read them in this other PC...

I did as you said, checked all of the individual "Used" addresses from the Electrum wallet, including the Change used ones, in the block explorer, and voila ! Yes, I do have exactly the amount of BCHs that I was expecting.

Still nothing showing in Coinomi. Kind of afraid to sweep in another private key for one of the Electrum addresses in case i get what happened yesterday...

I also have Electron Cash desktop wallet installed in a virtual machine. Yesterday I created a wallet there using the Electron wallet's seed. No BCHs there...    Strangely the addreses that show in Electron Cash don't coincide with the unused addresses in Electrum (there is no option to see "used addresses in Electron Cash"....this is mind boggling....

I'm going to sweep a second private key from one of the Electrum address that contains BCH and will report shortly what happens.
