Very Urgent - PENDING transaction for days

why did you not use the cpfp option? right click on the unconfirmed transaction and use child pays for parent to bump the fee:

I did that and it only wasted my bitcoins. This feature doesn't work.

Anyway,

After waiting for TOO LONG long, all (yes all) transactions that were problematic are now solved. No pending transactions anymore.

BUT

The problem is even worse: None of transactions got refunded! The destination (receiver - to whom i wanted to pay) bitcoin addresses were changed in the meantime and all my bitcoins are lost. I didn't get any refund. Only balance disappeared.

You have to set a fee that is high enough for 2 transactions. So maybe you didn't set a high enough fee.

If the transactions confirmed then it is not the fault of electrum or the bitcoin network. The fault now lies with the recipient. Just because they gave you a different address for your NEXT transaction doesn't mean that they no longer control the address from the previous transaction. So take this up with them. Send them a link to the relevant page on a block explorer to show them that you have paid.
