Why not just pay the fees?
It would guarantee that the transaction goes through without delay.

Because the miners are making enough money and there's absolutely no shortage of hashes. If the folks like me, who actually store a copy of the blockchain, saw any of the transaction fee, I might feel differently.

You can import your addressess in a different wallet with the desired option.

if I Knew this, would Undoubtedly I would have been able to save 10 MBTC (approximate value already paid fees in transactions)

well, maybe after hearing this, I return to use multbit

thanks for the tip

If you're sending enough BTC and you've held it for a while, fees shouldn't speed up its inclusion in a block. I think having the option -- whether or not it's a good idea for people to utilize it -- is still a good thing.

Yo there  Shocked

I use MultiBit as my Bitcoin wallet , and seems like it dosen't have an option to change the fees . is there is anyway to change them or send without fees ? Shocked Or totally Impossible unless I change the source code & Re-compile the wallet ?. thank you
as long as i know you can not sent bitcoin in Multibit without fee.
you need to recompile it
let me dig my bookmarks Cheesy
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/multibit-a-way-to-reduce-transaction-fee-590733

if you want to send without fee here are options that "I tried" so far:
use blockchin.info you can send with 0 fee and also you can import your private keys in there

use Electrum. (i could not send with 0 fee but numerous people say it is possible might be my problem)

I don't trust online wallets too much . and for Electrum it's not working for me anymore , not sure why tho  Cry I click .exe , simply nothing happens
anyway thanks for the help mate Grin I may just stick with multibit and pay the little fees.

I may just pay the fees eventually , I'am really new at this mate , so please don't laugh at me Shocked so I made different wallets on MultiBit , Is it possible to send from Wallet A to Wallet B ? (since it's the same program Multibit) or not

Sending bitcoins from one address to another address requires you to go through the block chain even if it is the same wallet using the same software on the same machine. On the other hand, moving an address (and its private key) from one wallet to another does not. A client that supports multiple wallets may allow you to move addresses between wallets.

nah , what I meant is to send money , not moving adress or anything . I meant sending money from one wallet to another and both of them are on the same program (MultiBit) Shocked does it work ?

Yes, it does work.
Yea I just tried it and it worked , thanks mate Grin really appreciate it

This what I did , I didn't think that the fees will be so low like that Grin quiet new with bitcoin

When I used Armory to sweep funds from one key to another, I did pay fees, (since they took coin from one address and forwarded it to another) anytime you have to send via the blockchain a fee should be paid. If you just import a private key to a wallet shouldn't require you to pay a fee.
