A few minutes after I checked your low fee transaction I tried again, but blockchain.info's node had already forgotten about it.
Yeah, its seems that blockchain ?dropped? the transaction for lack of a better word literally seconds after I posted this thread. What now? Is there any way I can get the bitcoins back? Eventually all the nodes in the Bitcoin network will forget about your transaction if you do nothing. Afterwards your coins should return to your wallet and be spendable again. However some wallets keep resending unconfirmed transactions, so it might be best to close your wallet and check your address through a block explorer. Blockcypher is usually one of the last explorers to remember a transaction. https://live.blockcypher.com/A moderator here posted a guide explaining your options for dealing with a stuck transaction. One of your options is to do nothing and wait until you get your bitcoins back. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1802212.0

I have two unconfirmed transactions.
adceef304e538aff19fef8ce4713043ccda70c296113317753a1835f906f693b 5c5bbea169de68dfa3413c961e098867341604153d2bb605d535ef096148e634
The first transaction was an experiment to see how long it would take to get bitcoins sent with the lowest fee. The second is one is money i care about and "need".
I checked both your transactions in blockchain.info, and the second transaction spends unconfirmed coins sent from the first transaction with the very low fee. The second transaction can't confirm until the first does. https://blockchain.info/tx/5c5bbea169de68dfa3413c961e098867341604153d2bb605d535ef096148e634A few minutes after I checked your low fee transaction I tried again, but blockchain.info's node had already forgotten about it. The node connected to the blockcypher explorer still shows your transaction. https://live.blockcypher.com/btc/tx/adceef304e538aff19fef8ce4713043ccda70c296113317753a1835f906f693b/I got the raw format of it from blockcypher and tried pushing it through blockchain.info's transaction pushing tool. However it rejected it with an error message that it was transaction version 2. This is your low fee transaction in raw format. If blockcypher forgets it you could try submitting it to blockcyoher's raw transaction pushing tool here https://live.blockcypher.com/bcy/pushtx/0200000001f5887538f6224ec42f0b6ba7540a7c0b9c2e2b3f4b8e8599216b2ede8ec33bb500000 0006b4830450221009064746ba62e1b34303eb607b9b01f1e15ce085e041540a3fe8583b985113a 36022006ea6a4dfd6ec2ecd717284c8491430f7aae4ec1f81828c4c30d822e9b54d41c012102461 6d088edb7c1cd7d6386a162db1aaee2fe82866a07a7af3d915580fdfc136efeffffff0240420f00 000000001976a9148a06b479098a015154eff843db30db5edd15d5ed88aca737280000000000197 6a9145c42b1012c33c1dfb230ecaa018a805e2c391ded88ac4b1a0700 I tried pushing your raw transaction through blockchain.info, but it rejected it with an error message that it was transaction version 2. editI tried pushing your transaction through blockr.io, but that tool also rejected it. https://blockr.io/tx/push

Any update..
Has quickseller replied to you yet? He must be overwhelmed with requests to confirm transactions. I just checked macbook-air's profile, and the last time he logged in here was on May 07. However quickseller was logged in half an hour ago.

I know Macbook-air runs a big mining pool, so he's highly unlikely to need to scam for tiny amounts of a Bitcoin. He only charged ahmedjadoon 0.0001 BTC to confirm his transaction last April. If he charges you two or three times as much you won't be risking more than 0.0002 or 0.0003 BTC for confirmation. editI checked macbook-air's profile, and unfortunately the last time he logged into bitcointalk was on May 07. However, quickseller logged in half an hour ago.

Can anyone help? I've been trying the accelarator but can't get it to go through. I'll pay for help. Sent it through blockchain.info. Thanks

I accelerated it for you through the viabtc accelerator. It should confirm when the viabtc pool mines its next block. You can view a list of the last blocks it mined, and their times here. https://blockchain.info/blocks/ViaBTCIf you want to send a tip my address is in my profile here.

Thanks for getting back to me Neurotic fish. Please can you take a quick look at the screenshot and let me know if I'm in the correct place, I'm getting this message 'Submissions are beyond limit. Please try later.'? Do I need to deposit bitcoin to use the transaction accelerator? I've looked at 'Quickseller' but not registered as it'll just be like opening another can of worms and already I've worms coming out of my ears : ) The screenshot is OK. That message means that they are full for now. I've got the same message. Quickseller has a lot of negative feedback, but many tell that PM-ing him can solve your problem for a fee. Just I don't know his fees and I cannot vouch for it either... This quote can give you a rough idea of the fees he charged ahmedjadoon a few months ago. However, he will probably want higher fees today because the network's overloaded with 163100 unconfirmed transactions. Macbook-air also offers the same service as quickseller, and his feedback's better. Both of them ore probably overwhelmed with requests to confirm trasactions, so they will probably take some time to respond. You can contact either quickseller or macbook-air and offer a small payment to get your transaction confirmed fast. This quote gives an example of how much they charge... I faced a similar issue a few days back transaction not getting confirmed due to low fee but user "QuickSeller" got my transaction confirmed in minutes when I sent him 0.0001 BTC. He has access to some pool . PM him.
They can get F2Pool to confirm your transaction, so when it mines another block your transaction will probably get confirmed. You can see the times it mined its latest blocks here. https://blockchain.info/blocks/F2Pool

If I do nothing, will both my transactions eventually confirm?
Normally I would say yes, but the network is under an exceptionally heavy load today. There are 163100 unconfirmed transactions in it, and if the backlog stays as high for the next few days some transactions won't confirmed that normally would. On the other hand, if the backlog clears your transactions will confirm. I can't predict what will happen if you do nothing, the backlog's too big. https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions

I tried adding it, it says transaction already exists! From what I remember the nodes connected to blockchain.info usually forget about transactions faster than some other nodes. If you copy the hex data from each link you can submit it back to blockchain.info/pushtx after the blockchain.info explorer has forgotten about the transaction. If it won't accept it, then try submitting the hex data to these other transaction pushers. https://blockr.io/tx/pushhttps://live.blockcypher.com/bcy/pushtx/Blockcypher says there is a low confidence this transaction will get confirmed, although it didn't detect a double spend. Blockchain.info received that transaction on May 9, so it's likely to forget about it soon. https://blockchain.info/tx/361e44dc8d1841168e0c2c5ee60fc65be149e7561897f7888d48ab4b5c84f2d3

They got all weekend to keep dumping.
We often used to get dumps at the weekend, but during some recent weekends we got pumps instead. This rally is breaking all the rules. It's so unpredictable that I'm taking jimbo's advice and just hodling. yeah don't get me wrong, i been hodling since 2013, but last 2 weekends (if i'm not mistaken) we saw dumps correct? The weekend before last didn't really move the price too much. It went down then back up again. Last weekend we did get a small dump, but it recovered quickly afterwards. We do often get dumps at weekends, that's the rule, but this rally sometimes breaks that rule and costs anyone betting on it a fortune.

Wow.. so if its removed what does that mean?
None of those transactions will ever confirm??
Yes, if any of the unconfirmed transactions in the network of chains leading to your transaction are removed your transaction will never confirm. The more time those transactions remain unconfirmed, the more likely it is that one or more of them will be removed.

1st trans the fees is from blockchain normal fee.
2nd trans is a mistake fee i put its shown 2sat/byte and it will confirmed when doomsday
3rd trans i put a higher fees
I haven't used the blockchain.info wallet myself, but I read its default fees aren't high enough to cope with today's overloaded network. Somebody said you had to use its advanced mode to manually make it pay 270 satoshis/byte. Any transaction with a fee lower than 270 satoshis/byte is unlikely to confirm quickly today. The viabtc transaction accelerator might speed up this transaction's confirmation. https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/tx/d45b76a1f5787752cde5fdffb0c74d8b224c8413ab4079eaba7818180998cd73This is the link to it, but it's under a heavy load and only accepts 100 transactions an hour. https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/It won't accept your lowest fee transaction because its fee is too low, and it's unlikely to accept your other transaction because it contains dust. https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/tx/bbdbbc6fe8150e06c05094d359273e8b65794ad40f54e5114611acd87207f82cYou could try offering either of the users in this quote a small fee to get your transactions confirmed instead.

RIP guys, it's all over, we told you it was going to crash. Two minutes later, price recovers. Just sit back, don't watch price for a few hours, and chill. It's not like looking at your little phone or monitor every five minutes will change anything. Small corrections do happen and it's only normal for them to happen. IT was a Joke man haha Its a correction now i think still were going up Ditto It went down by about $100 a few days ago, then went up by $250. Maybe in another year it will be going down by $1000, then back up by $2500 within a few days, and Bitcoin will be worth so much that $1000 will only be a small blip.

I don't have time anymore to wait. Also when trying to find a solution on that problem on my own I saw some post someone saying that NO new transactions should be done until everything is confirmed/refunded (no pendings). It is simply too urgent for me and it is my only available source of bitcoins, very few ones (i only have like 0.045). I don't have any other source such as localbitcoins or wherever online balance is containing bitcoins. This (problem shown by me on screenshot in one of my previous messages) should be solved now.
The viabtc accelerator I used won't confirm the transaction with an unconfirmed parent until the viabtc mining pool mines another block. It mines blocks at random times as shown below. If you are in a desperate hurry then try contacting quickseller or macbook-air and explaining the situation you are in. I think I remember one of them let someone pay the fee after they had confirmed his transaction because he couldn't afford to pay until his transaction was confirmed. https://blockchain.info/blocks/ViaBTC

I understand you are saying the only solution to get those transactions completed/refunded (please kindly tell me whether they will be completed OR refunded - if i had a choice, but i most likely don't, i would prefer refund) is to wait. Only wait. But approximately how long do I still have to wait? On the screenshot I provided, the oldest Unconfirmed Parent is from 2017-05-08 22:15:51 and the ''Low Fee'' transaction is from 2017-05-08 21:53:04. Both times are most likely from gmt+1
You can choose to do nothing and the coins you sent will either get confirmed, or the network will forget about the transaction and your coins will get refunded to you. However, it's difficult to predict what the network will do, or how long it will take. The OP of this thread deliberately sent a zero fee transaction to see what would happen. Surprisingly it confirmed after 11 days. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1818747.0I remember another user who accidentally sent a zero fee transaction about the same time. The network eventually forgot about his transaction, and his coins were refunded. If you chose to wait you might have a long wait. Another option you could consider is offering either of the users in this quote a small fee to get your transactions confirmed. You can contact either quickseller or macbook-air and offer a small payment to get your transaction confirmed fast. This quote gives an example of how much they charge...
