Title: 0/3 Confirmations PLEASE HELP
Post by: RoatanMan on June 27, 2019, 07:12:57 PM
I'm limited on time @ the moment & was wondering if anyone could help me accelerate an unconfirmed xfer from Blockchain? I forgot to select priority unfortunately & its been far too long & from the looks of it, it seems I'll be waiting much longer unless I can get some assistance. I'd greatly appreciate any help in this matter. My mom is very sick & I need this to go thru for medical reasons asap.

I think this is the transaction id..17c8f86e59689f83f9c835a82b3a9a3736461a8c689a2b4f6f99b4b8687cde32

You paid lower than the recommended fee that is why it's not confirmed yet.
Since Blockchain wallet has no RBF and CPFP feature what you can do with your transaction is to use a paid service.

There is a known paid service to accelerate the transaction if you can't wait you can use viabtc service from here https://pool.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/

However, since your transaction fee is close to the recommended fee it may confirm soon so wait more hours. My estimation is around 2 to 6 hours more.


Edit: Blockchair notified me that your transaction has been confirmed.

I don't use blockchain.com, but you should check if there's "RBF" option or option where you can increase fee of your transaction.

Alternatively, if blockchain.com don't have such feature, you can import your wallet to Electrum & make RBF transaction from Electrum.

Yes, there's a priority option which is slightly more but I forgot to switch it from regular & was too late by the time I realized.

Thank you for the advice. Hopefully it goes thru sooner than your estimates.

afaik blockchain.com only set fee based on selected priority option, but doesn't support RBF opt-in
so even he use electrum, he won't be able to do RBF because his transaction is not RBF opt-in to begin with
