Yes I sent this transaction 3 days ago also but did not repeat it today.

 Well the date on this one is Received Time 2017-05-12 21:43:27 
Are you using only the blockchain.info wallet?
Yes only the blockchain wallet but I assume it says I got it because the tx I first sent 3 days ago never got confirmed

So I have three questions..
1) Will I regain access to my account?
2) Will I see my money back ever again?
3) How long will all of this mess take to clear up? 72 hours? Thanks

1. Maybe. It'll take a lot of work.
2. Probably not. They steal your money at the drop of a hat.
3. Knowing blockchain.info unfortunately it'll be a hell of a lot longer than that. Weeks or months if ever. They will never admit that they were in the wrong.

So I did this transaction 3 days ago with very low fees (wasn't aware of the unconfirmed tx problem): https://blockchain.info/tx/20a1a54ae84c05020b10a62c66a3abc8ed9e7cd9cbf4a0a922d905c96804fe9f

Waited 3 days, since the fees were very low it went unconfirmed, okay whatever learned my lesson. 3 Days later got the balance in my account. Now I have $200 + $20 I got from somewhere else for the extra fees. So I try to send to the same address again, same amount, but obviously this time with a higher fee right? So now I'm at $0 in my account. So at first after sending the transaction it's fine for a bit.. then next thing you know it's claiming it's a double spend and hasn't been confirmed yet

Tx id: https://blockchain.info/tx/60e1a310c28a4164c0f030fb2a69ec111663b18155623dda58c9c39f8658fc4d

As soon as this happens, now I can't view my balance and past tx history etc on my blockchain account. It'll let me login, but never load up the balance or past transactions.



If it helps, as soon as I sent the payment I put the txid into the viabtc accelerator and it said acc. succeeded. 


So I have three questions..
1) Will I regain access to my account?
2) Will I see my money back ever again?
3) How long will all of this mess take to clear up? 72 hours? Thanks

 Is this yours too?
