Now it seems the "2 blocks" and "5 blocks" values are the same in my Electrum, all others are different... Looks like it is just a quirk in the dynamic fee calculation that results in the same fee being use for a wide range of blocks as ranochigo has posited in #1
It likely happens when very large numbers of transactions are all using similar fees... as opposed to being spread across a wide range
Topic: Dynamic Fee Bug (Read 390 times)
It might not be a problem with the client but a problem with the server.
Dynamic fee gets the floating fee from the server. The mempool of every server differs from each other and in many cases, the estimated fee can differ from server to server. There can be two reasons for the same amount of fee:
1. Bug in the calculation of dynamic fee which results in the same estimation for a large range of block.
2. Core estimates the fees poorly and relays incorrect information. (My Core client currently has the same fee estimate for 10 to 25 blocks).
My dynamic fee in Electrum seems to be working fine, the fees are different at each point.

And I encountered also that bug on the previous version I guess 2.8. I can't remember actually but as per mentioned you only have version 2.6.3, so..
You should update your electrum to its latest version which is 2.9.2 if I'm correct, that's the issue of previous updates of electrum.
EDIT: it's 2.9.3 the latest version of electrum

It's doing it on my newly installed Android one as well unless that's regressing back to its previous version?

Can you confirm what version you are using? 2.6.3 is before the fee slider even existed... it was added in 2.7.0 
I assume you mean 2.8.3?
In any case... it is also doing this in the latest version.. 2.9.3:
I suggest you report the issue here: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues

When I use the slider in electrum (both 2.6.3 and the new Android wallet) the fees for within 10 blocks and within 25 blocks are the same?
Is this a known error? (I'd update to the new version but it was causing problems with my computer).
