Help... I can't send my bitcoins??

[nojolev]

Hi folks, really hoping you can help me cause I just created a wallet at blockchain,
but when I try to send my bitcoins to another address, it just won't let me.
And it doesn't matter how much if I type in 12 or 0.00001 BTC it's still not working..
I always get the message " use total available minus fee: 0 BTC" in red text, if that would explain something?
I don't really get that because isn't there no fees when sending and receiving BTC at blockchain, or have I gotten that wrong?

Thank you
-Noah

How much Bitcoin do you have to send? What is your address? Have you tried contacting support at blockchain.info? This is a service problem, people here can't really help you.

You are horribly incorrect. You must remember, blockchain.info is a service, not the actual blockchain. They can't do anything with the blockchain, including transaction fees. You must send transactions with a fee if you want the transaction to confirm, regardless of the wallet you are using.

I read somewhere that blockchain no longer allow users to send all their balance, it is like you need to leave about 0.005btc in your account before sending.

And why they would do that now, any reason?

Op, you want to send all your coins and this cause the issue you are having. You need to remember about two things:

1. You have yo include fee for every trasaction.
2. Apparently blockchain wallet require you to maintain some sort of balance on your account.

Try sending all your coins  minus 0.005 and see what will happen.

You have to pay the fee...
For example: You have 1 Bitcoin in your wallet, so you can't transfer the entire 1 bitcoin because you will have to spend 30k satoshis of fee(to miners)     
So you will have to transfer 0,99950000 and pay 0,0005000 of fee, and at the final = 1 bitcoin...

Been using this wallet for months now and nothing like that ever happened.You got false information probably.

In Op's case,I believe you're trying to send more bitcoins than in your wallet.If no,you might not have put enough fees for the transaction to be broadcasted.Blockchain.info gives you an aoption to adjust the amount with a bit high fee inorder to have the tx's processed faster.If you don't like it,start using bitcoin core,you can pretty much put any fee you want and broadcast the transaction anyway.

This is not true, and actually what OP seem missing is he may only have around 10,000 to 20,000 satoshi which is actually average fee for one transaction so basically what he/she trying to send will be deducted as fee so it is showing transfarable bitcoin as 0.

Heheh okay thanks so much guys, I think I realized that the problem is pretty obvious and simple since I only have 0.0001 in my balance and I'm trying to send 0.0005...

I'm really sorry for wasting your time with this, I just don't know anything at all about bitcoins (yet)
But thank you very much, your help is very appreciated
