So i did what you said and sent over my BTC to my new electrum wallet.
So how would i go about retrieving my BCC now?
Arent they still under the old seed?(as i made a new wallet with no seed now on electrum and sent the BTC over).

Do you try the advice HCP suggested in his last post?

If you send your BTC from MultiBitHD to Electrum wallet in transaction then your coins are now safe in Electrum,but you can not use that new created seed to claim BCH coin,because in time of fork you have BTC in old MultiBitHD wallet.

Now if you have ElectronCash wallet,be sure it is genuine and not fake,try use seed from MultibitHD wallet but with instruction from HCP.Second option is to just export private keys from MultiBitHD(not encrypted) and import them in ElectronCash.Please take your time and read this https://electrum.org/bcc2.txt

So in short,secure your BTC by sending them to new wallet in transaction(not importing your private keys),then use your old seed/private keys in ElectronCash(be sure it is download from genuine site).Recommendation is to use ElectronCash in separate machine.
