Hi,
I transferred some btc from my electrum wallet nearly 24 hours ago and its still listed as unconfirmed. Normally it takes half an hour, I thought something was up after a few hours so I thought id sleep on it, but I came back from work today and its still stuck on unconfirmed.
What should I do?

Start by telling us what wallet you used to receive the funds to and what is the TXID ? If you don't know how to get it , just get the link that opens after this  (Image of google) :

After some research I believe its because I did the bare minimum fee, and I didnt realise that this had an affect on wait times as its what I normally do but after viewing the details I think I'll give it another day. I was just transferring it to a marketplace wallet

Yep, that transaction had a small fee which will cause it to take longer to confirm, especially when the blockchain is under heavy congestion.

I'd recommend using the Dynamic fees options in Electrum under Preferences which allows you to use a slider to control how fast you wish for a transaction to confirm and adjusts the fees appropriately.
