Hi All

I wanted to subscribe in an ICO presale where I first had to whitelist my ether wallet adress.
Thinking Coinbase was a wallet, I've sent my ether coinbase address to get whitelisted. The next day I got confirmation that my address was succesfully whitelisted.

What I didn't knew is that Coinbase is generating different addresses each time, so the next day when I made the transaction to the ICO it was from an unwhitelisted address and the transaction failed/cancelled because the contract did not accept my unwhitelisted address;

https://etherscan.io/tx/0xe103a771eff315709a2fd34e01af478b0b75ad90f9e59173657b84ad475a79db

Now coinbase is saying the transaction was completed, while in etherscan I can see it was cancelled.

I would think a cancelled transaction is reverted & I get this 0.1 eth back on my coinbase account?
But Coinbase is saying:
Unfortunately, digital currency transactions using most blockchains are irreversible, meaning once they are sent there is no way to reclaim funds.

Anyone can help/any advice?

Thanks in advance
