Been 3 days now. It is not going through to vendor's wallet. What do i do. Is there a way to contact someone. Or use a transaction ID to retrieve it, and push into wallet?

I don't know anything much about Bitcoin.

I don't wanna lose my funds to sit in a blockchain and eventually vanish. What do i do?? Can I reverse it. Push it thru.. What? This is nuts to let it go to no one! Thanks!

It definitely won't vanish. If enough time goes by and it isn't picked up in a block, it will be cleared/forgotten, which means it becomes available in your wallet again.

Try entering the transaction ID into bitaccelerate.com and acceleratebtc.com to have the transaction broadcasted to more nodes.

If you did an RBF transaction, you can increase the transaction fee to attempt to entice miners to pick it up in a block. A new transaction will be created with info from the old transaction and a higher fee assigned.

I'd say just wait. This is an ongoing issue (network congestion, high transaction fee) with Bitcoin and why, for all its pioneering beauty, it's an inferior product. Check if your vendor accepts other crypto (XMR, ZCash, LTC, ...) - there's literally no lack of blockchains that confirm within minutes.

The only other wild card here is if the wallet address is wrong (mistakenly sent to Bitcoin Cash addy, or used a service that flips addy to steal funds like privnote.com [legit] vs. privnotes.com [phish], or just addy that is wrong yet valid), but you can of course double-check these transaction details on the blockchain explorer. If it did go to wrong address, depending on the circumstance, it's either possibly recoverable [BCH] or not at all [phish, wrong but valid].

 
We are all having issues receiving payment with blockchain. @thrasherlove Hi Thrasher read above. Maybe you can help me understand this.

I want to find a way to pull what I sent out of the blockchain. I tried YouTube, and people say it can be done, but it seems impossible.

Oh yeah, thanks for all the info @rootshealer. I got caught up trying as fast as I can to get BTC sent returned on every YT channel, etc. Then she was having the same issue. It's to the same vendor. I hope we get refunded, I don't want to wait a long time.

The issue with the cancellation option is that it's still a transaction (either through RBF or double-spend method, you're increasing the mining fee and redirecting the money to yourself), so you may be right back to where you started if the transaction fee is still too low and miners don't pick it up.

Bitcoin network congestion has been an issue for years. The blockchain just wasn't designed to handle the load it sometimes has to bear. So during times of high transaction volume, miners prioritize the most lucrative transactions (highest fees) and transactions get backlogged.

 
@Sweet Guy are you sure you put the correct address in to be sent? Is it possible you sent it to the wrong place? I have done that before a while back and just had to write that off as a loss on my own part. I hope not. I definitely understand how you feel right now.

Indeed if its on the block you will eventually get your funds back 

 
Does everyone like buy from pax or crypto then transfer to external private wallet then send to subscription?

exchange > personal wallet > anon wallet > destination

exchange > btc-xmr (or other crypto to xmr) converter > anon wallet [preferably xmr, but could convert back to btc or other) > destination (xmr breaks the link since it hides addresses and trx amounts)

 
This may not help but if you accidentally send bch to a BTC address it’s gone. Just a warning. Yes I am an idiot and I did it. Even tried to hide a miner and there said no can do.

  1. ontovzik @ ontovzik: When I had long term shingles, lasting two months. All he could give me was a 10 day supply of dilaudid. He looked at the ground while we were talking about it. I could tell he was ashamed but it was the legislature and the governor that tied his hands. He was very upset that non-medical political people, the media, and the scared public were controlling how he treated his patients. Someday those people will need meds and a hospital bed and they will be gone.
  2. ontovzik @ ontovzik: I had a great doctor, he had the true gift of a healer and he stayed on top of all the science. He straight up told me that for many people opiods work for managing short and long term pain.
  3. ontovzik @ ontovzik: He peed it in the snow in my backyard.
  4. WTF7218 @ WTF7218: @xenxra 😆😂. Yes, but only a few brave souls will ever find the number. You must first order a Dirty Shirley from the bartender. Then you must discreetly take the cocktail napkin from under your drink and unfold it. There you will find the map to the location of the phone number, and clues to decipher the code that it is written in.
  5. xenxra @ xenxra: he left his phone number scribbled in a stall at the pub three blocks down
  6. aBBazaBBa123 @ aBBazaBBa123: @rockychoc How do I contact you?
  7. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar I would try one of those easy online ones .. reddit gives useful info about that
  8. Alkazar @ Alkazar: @NYStateofMind I dont really have a history of abusing things, my docotr is just really stingy. I am thinking of switching.
  9. C @ Cheesus: Thanks xenxra
  10. xenxra @ xenxra: @Cheesus yeah, use snote
  11. P @ psychedpsych: Trump is cracking down….
  12. P @ psychedpsych: Hackers are the scum of the earth
  13. N @ NYStateofMind: so it was easy bc of my history
  14. N @ NYStateofMind: I didnt really tell him but he knew I needed a new script since my dr went to jail
  15. N @ NYStateofMind: @xenxra I was on Adderall since 15 years ago so my dr prescribed that w no problems and then when I lost my best friend my doctor rxed the valiums but
  16. C @ Cheesus: Temp.pm down for anyone else?
  17. xenxra @ xenxra: @NYStateofMind my doctor's have always been pretty open minded if i can actually come in and explain the pharmacological action of the drugs im seeking instead of just telling them why i think i should be prescribed. the only time it didn't work out for me is when i was trying pharmaceuticals for depression ten years ago and suggested they let me try testosterone instead (turns out i was hypogonadal so they made a mistake denying my request at face value)
  18. T @ Testisthebest: Even down here in Florida when the pill mill docs all switched over to Suboxone and/or retired you can still find some pretty liberal docs but you gotta know what to look for. Mine does "pain management, detox, anxiety,etc. And no insurance. My doc writes me 60 5mg Valium, 14 2mg Xanax and asked if I had ever tried adderal to get more focus at work as I told him I run my own business.
  19. N @ NYStateofMind: @Alkazar do they know your history? Like I dont tell my doctor anything about myself except what they need to know,...I was able to get my dr to rx the highest dose of adderall along with valiums ..... if they dont know your history or there is no history I would just come out and ask what is the reason for their mistreatment.... they have no problem billing your insurance or taking a payment for the visit
  20. T @ Turbo259: @Layne_Cobain Thank you fam
