OP, I think the problem could be from the electrum wallet if you didnot provided the wrong address as your receive address because you're not the first person to have this issue, someone also complained about not receiving his/her bitcoin acouple of days either https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1841106.0

I found a recommendation in that topic, which recommended trying different networks. I think ultimately I was connected to an out-of-date server that I had drawn weeks ago when I first downloaded Electrum wallet. When I toggled the auto-connect off and restarted I was paired up with a fresh server upon turning auto-connect back on.

Here are the exact steps I followed to get a resolution:
1. Go to network, and de-selected the automatically connect to network.
2. Force quit Electrum
3. Restart Electrum
4. Go to network, re-select automatically connect to network.

After that, the transaction posted immediately. Thanks

Hahaha. I thought so since there is no transaction history appearing in your electrum wallet. Hmmm but do you have any idea how this occur? I never encounter this kind of network connection failure. Can you please post here the link to the thread on where do you get that guide? Thank you

I think it was the fact that I had left my Electrum running for two weeks played a part. The problem is, my Bitcoin Core crashed and I had to download the WHOLE blockchain again before I could access my BTC, so I sat around waiting for that to happen.

The link is in the quoted section that I pasted within this thread.
