Blockchain.info, please fix your fee calculator

[Tigggger]

With the current transaction backlog, sending urgent transactions is currently (almost) impossible on your site.

You give no indication of the transaction size so I can't work out what fee to put myself, all I can do is take what you recommend, add some to it, ignore the warning that there is 'no need to spend this much' and then still sit waiting for 4+ hours for the damn thing to confirm.

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr 

Here endeth the rant.

They will not hear you here dude, and even if you send a support ticket their support  will just ignore you just for sure. Instead of getting pissed off of what they have on their web wallet and what you get experienced why dont you try other wallet I mean desktop wallet instead of web wallets.

I have been using both the newest Electrum and Trezor and both have dynamic fees, are doing a fine job of estimating fees. There is no reason to be using a POS web wallet like bc.info when the alternatives are so much better.

I can feel what you feel I'd read somewhere here on forum that he's complaining the same thing. If the recommend fee is quite high for the guy, he will just use the advance send option of blockchain.info and will simply adjust the fee to lower one. But when he is changing it to lower one, the system tells him and scares him out that it will be long time or his transaction will never be confirmed, though I'm not using their wallet.

Actually they adopted dynamic fee structure, they're selecting which feee is best for you by increase it when there are more traffic on blockchain or decrease it if the traffic is less. It's a good implementation i think however my transaction always got stucked and the worst was i have to wait untill 1 day for my transaction confirmed, i mean they choose fee for me in order to ensure my transaction confirm reliably and fastly but then reality is nothing, that's why i am not using their service anymore.

It seems to be that blockchain.info has always the volume of transactions and miners are just looking for those transactions that has recommended fees gave by them. I haven't experience that delay and waiting time when I was still using blockchain.info a couple of hours and minutes I got confirmed already, surely a traffic in network is causing the delay and fees should be adjusted.
