user41468: I recently sent a friend of mine around $950 in BTC from Coinbase to his BTC wallet on BlockChain.info.
The transaction is showing up as completed in my account, but he claims he has not received the money yet...
I'm not sure why this issue is occurring. Can someone please help? Obviously, with an amount like $950, I can't just lose that money...

user40723: If it is showing up on Coinbase but not on blockchain, there's only two possibilities.

You sent to the wrong address. Check the address you sent to in blockchain.info. It should show up with your $950. This is where your coins are. Maybe you miscopied the address. Make sure that your friend owns the address that you sent to.
Malware. There is a virus circulating around that swaps out bitcoin address in the clipboard with a hacker's bitcoin address, so when try to send to an address, it will send to the hacker's address.
Your friend is having a problem with his blockchain wallet.


user5406: Since there is no dispute about the address, you can check whether the transaction has confirmed on any of the blockchain explorers freely available, such as blockexplorer.com or the aforementioned blockchain.info.
If the transaction shows up as confirmed there, and the receiving address matches the address that he told you, the money has been successfully signed over to his control. That's sufficient to prove that you paid.
If the payment is still not showing up in his wallet, the problem is on his side, and he should either look into what's wrong with his wallet or check in with the customer support to fix his access to his funds.
