We were using Blockchain with our site for quite a while but this has become ridiculous - they were charging around $0.04 initially for sending 1 Bitcoin transfer but now if we paid a member $1.50 for instance (worth of Bitcoins, a minimal amount) we would see a $1.75 deduction i.e. $0.25 is in fees!

That's absolutely ridiculous, yesterday it was $0.11 and now it's $0.25 - they keep on raising the fees.

Is this normal?

Couldn't you always just run your own full node and that way you'd have full control over everything?

I am not familiar with this much, so could you please explain what you mean by running your own full node? If you would do this, would you not need some massive computer power or such? In any case, the fees I have seen so far are minimal compared to banking with a credit card processor or such. Take advantage of it now while the fees are low.
