Ahhhhh this brings back memories... not sure why that thread feel off my notifications list? I never noticed that the OP had made the final reply??!? Huh Apologies for that.

Right, I have to ask the obvious question then... Given that you were copying both LTC and BTC addresses... I assume you checked the LTC "sign message" list for what you believe is the BTC address?

Or used the iancoleman.io tool and set the coin to LTC with your seed and checked those addresses for what you think is the BTC address?

I really do appreciate all of your suggestions, questions and help but as you can imagine this has been going on for the past 4 months now and it seems that I will never actually retrieve them. Everything that has been suggested has been tried numerous times including resetting all app data, chrome, iancoleman.io including every deriv path etc, etc.

It seems that the ledger does not recognise the BTC Segwit Address it gave me for whatever reason.

Answering your questions - I requested 3 addresses from the ledger (BTC Segwit, BCH & LTC) - I took screenshots of all 3 of these addresses and what's app'ed them to my friend to send me the coins. The BCH & LTC worked fine and were received perfectly by the ledger. The BTC was also transferred correctly but this was never received in the ledger like the BCH & LTC.

Since then I have learnt that the ledgers xpub does not match the BTC Segwit Address but it does the BCH & LTC - so how is this possible?
