Bitcoin transaction not confirming

[EvocativeMouse]

I sent 0.00142045 BTC almost 11 hours ago through multibit, the transaction is yet to be confirmed. I don't really get what's the issue, previously it took no more than an hour.

The transaction https://blockchain.info/tx/0cef110cb2582285d0c90b28143d9544e715068259c33705bcbc5776c2d04d79

Your fee is low.  You're using 26 satoshi per byte and the recommended fee is 110 satoshi per byte.
Use https://www.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ to make the ViaBTC mine your transaction.

I suggest you don't use a fixed fee of 0.0001BTC for every transaction you make.  If you keep doing that you'll get this problem a lot.

Another fees problem to resolve as miners prefer to choose highest incentive to process the transaction into the next block which is generated. I'm not using multibit, so I don't know for sure how is it going there. I've never going through this problem on blockchain wallet before and the process always faster which I didn't realize. Moreover, sent low amount of bitcoin seems to face same problem every time I find out about this.

Well not sure what the problem is have one that has been like 6 hours it was from a exchange the fee they put on it was 0.00017 btc even thought they charge us 0.0002 btc , but also one like 5 hrs ago from my blockchain wallet and i up the fee to 0.0002 btc and its still in limbo , think its time bitcoin guys sort there shit out or get someone else to do the bloody job!! this is the problem having it in the hands of people that are only looking out for there own interests , not the community as a whole !!
rant over!!
till next time !!

lesson learnt, always pay higher fee to get your transaction confirm faster

Well i cant control what the exchange does although i did have my piece with them , but problem in the trash the email now , but i did opt higher than recommended so its just a wait game on either the blocks and miners , or until someone thatcan organize the bitcoin dev's to actually sort this shit out !
