Ask a miner for help

Some mining pools and miners offer services to allow you to prioritize your transaction in their mempool so that it is chosen sooner for inclusion in a block. You can contact the users Quickseller and macbook-air. These two users have access to F2Pool's transaction selector and they can help you with confirming your stuck transaction.

Have tried to get in contact with the 2 users in question but to no avail, guess il have to wait. cheers for the info.

Yeah, sometimes there are lots of pending transactions in the blockchain. Or, there are more transactions with higher fees which makes them confirms first before your transaction. This usually happens when there are more transactions rather than the miners which makes the chain going. 48 hours was too long but the best way to do now is to wait a couple more hours for your transaction to be confirmed.
