@MegaBrutal and others, thanks for the replies,
No word yet, I hear they are pretty bad at responding. Last time I sent them an email I never got a reply for a couple of days.
I've had a reply from a Terracoin developer explaining the exact process to return my Bitcoins
1. export TRC private key, associated to the destination TRC address used.
2. using their bitcoin wallet, import that private key ("importprivkey"
rpc command) to create the bitcoin address matching the one you sent
bitcoins to.
3. ensure they received the indicated amount (you should provide btc-e
the transaction id seen on your local bitcoin wallet for easier checks &
processing).
4. when fully checked, fund your btc accound with the transaction amount.
Seems fairly simple.
arrrrgggggggggg
