Thank you for your reply. I will try your suggestions if I can, but I think I'm limited. This BTC was from OALEND Coin (which is an ICO) withdrawal, so I have no control over the sending of it. They do and they won't seem to help me. I don't know why they choose chain.so to process the transactions because apparently there are major delays. I had no say in the miner fee. I feel at a loss here and have reached out to macbook-air and hope he can help somehow.
I'm still new to understanding mining and such, but I know enough that this is a frustrating situation.
