BCH sent to segwit BTC what to do?

Most people have said it's not possible to recover it while I've personally found a few posts explaining how to but which I didn't personally understand.

Example 1: Reddit post on /r/BTC

Example 2: Post made by Electron Cash.

Here is an image of the transaction on Ledger live. Here is the transaction on blockchair and here it is on bch.btc.

I sent the BCH to a BTC wallet (dropbit /u/coin_ninja_com, contacted them but they said there is nothing to do but contact a miner?). Since I sent the money to myself on a BTC wallet that means I have the word seed but not the private key(?) that I need for recovery on Electron cash. How do I convert the word seed so I can recover it on Electron cash? I've asked similar questions before and people always give me this link: https://iancoleman.io/bip39/ without explaining to me how to use it. Is it possible to recover my BCH? Either by the methods listed in any of the above links or is the only option contacting miners?`

Edit: As for recovery I've found a few options. Not sure which are legit though.
