BTC lost on blockchain.info after recovery!?!

Hi,

2 days ago I tried to login my blockchain.info/com account but I did not have my e-mail-password ready.
So I could not login and used my 12 word phrase to recover the wallet.

Everything good until the login to my wallet: it´s empty!
It looks like a brand new wallet where no transactions where made, ever!

I had a nice amount of BTC in there which would cover my retirement, but now everything looks like it´s gone....

For me it is pretty unbelievable that I did a mistake in writing down the 12-word-phare and per coincident wrote down a different write phrame of someone else....

So the question is: what did i do wrong? where are the coins? what happened to my old wallet with the coins in?

Very looking forward an answer :)

Kind regards!

Google "coleman bitcoin" (everybody should always remember these two words)

Open that webpage. Disconnect your internet connection.

Put in your seed and search for the xpub-key.

Copy your xpub-key (Key that starts with 'xpub...' " to a text file.

Close your browser, connect to the internet and start your browser again.

put in your xpub-key in http://blockchair.com to figure out what happens with your coins.

 

In general I think it's totally stupid to trust on any service to keep an eye on your retirement funds ... sorry, that that's totally crazy.

With Bitcoin you have the possibility to keep them in your one storage - nobody kenn steel them if just you know there the keys are.
