<p>I was trying to transfer BCH from Koinex wallet to my Ledger Nano S wallet, but I've given BTC address wrongly instead of BCH address! The transaction was succesfully sent from the Koinex site, however I've not received my coins into my Ledger Nano S wallet as I've given BTC address instead of BCH!

I voted to reopen this, because the linked question is about transferring to an address in an exchange, whereas this is about transferring to a hardware wallet where the user holds the key.
