It is a fee problem, mostly with MultiBit not using dynamic fees. Go to Preferences > Fees and move the slider towards the "higher" end to increase your fees.
I would recommend using my fee booster: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-bitcoin-transaction-fee-booster-1506632 but unfortunately MultBit doesn't support exporting your private keys nor signing raw transactions within the client so you can't use the program to increase your fees.

Hello all,
Ever since I upgraded my Multibit HD client to the latest version 0.3 something happened and the client now creates transactions that become stuck/unconfirmed. It appears to relate to a fee issue. The fee appears to be less than recommended.
After the first transaction became stuck, I created another very small transaction to see if it also would get stuck, and it did.
first transaction: https://blockchain.info/tx/709cd9d93b59a235a743e394602d7ea88ac627f0fbd5a3952c35c61407952595
second test transaction: https://blockchain.info/tx/f8a3d02c9990e034749bae3f2fd25e3f18e017f0482457bf7d6a169317cde7c8
I've done some research, but since I am not an expert could anyone help with giving advice or an opinion on the following?
* Is the fee the issue?
* Is this a Multibit HD client error?
* Do you reckon this transaction is likely to go through?
* Would it actually help if I keep rebroadcasting myself using i.e. https://www.localbitcoinschain.com/tx/send
* Since I use Multibit HD, I cannot create a double spend as I have no access to the private key. Or is there another option to double spend if necessary in the future?
* Also, I cannot create a child pay for parent type transaction as I cannot increase transaction fees on Multibit HD.
- Is it possible to use the HD BIP 32 pass to recreate this wallet in another client?
- is there another applicable HD wallet that can increase transaction fees?
For now I will have to wait to see if it will get confirmed, but I want to save my 75 dollars!
Thanks for considering!
