Need help! Insufficient BNB to cover network fee

I am having this problem:
I have 100 USD in BUSD (BEP2) that I want to send to my binance BUSD wallet and I cannot move them out of the wallet because it says “insufficient bnb to cover network fee”
Why doesn’t it take the fee from my balance?
I have done this before a few times and it worked and now it just doesn’t let me move my balance.

A post was split to a new topic: Need help with Binance USDT BEP20

Hi! I need your help. I’ve seen you have helped a few people with this issue. I’m not sure how it happened by I transferred ETH to Trust using Binance. It has come through as Binance-Peg Ethereum BEP20. I’m trying to transfer it out to either Binance or ETH (or anything else!) but its not working. It says I have insufficient BNB. I have BNB in my Trust wallet. Can you please share information on how I can resolve this?

Hello @ashariat, you need to have BNB BEP20 (Smart Chain - the one with a dark logo) in order to pay for the network fees.

If that BNB has a yellow logo (and when you press it, the top left says “COIN”), then you have the BEP2 version. Since you have BNB BEP2, you can cross-chain swap it to BEP20 by following this guide: How to make a Crosschain Swap on Trust Wallet

Thanks! I realised the same just after messaging you. However, I then tried to send this from the Binance-Peg Ethereum BEP20 to my regular ETH but didn’t seem to work? I tried the following technique to do it:
Go to Binance-Peg Ethereum BEP20 Account > Send > Paste address for my ETH in Trust > Confirm. I get a confirmation that it is sent in the transaction history, but it does not appear in my ETH (or the transaction history for it).

So you have any advice on what I can do to get it out into something else?

Thank you!

Sending Binance-Peg Ethereum BEP20 to your ETH wallet won’t convert it to native Ethereum. Also, you have the same address for your native Ethereum and Binance-Peg Ethereum BEP20, so it’s just like you send it back to yourself.

To convert it back to native ETH, you can send it to Binance - Cryptocurrency Exchange for Bitcoin, Ethereum & Altcoins. Deposit it as BEP20 (BSC) and withdraw as ERC20. An alternative method would be using Binance Smart Chain | Binance Bridge | Binance Panama
