I am sure this question is asked numerous times but can someone please advise on why this bitcoin transfer is taking so long? I am the person receiving and it has been over 36 hours. I have never had to wait longer than 6 - 10 hours at the most. I have tried increasing the fees, parent/child, etc... I just want to know what is going on and if this will for sure complete? Any idea on how much longer to expect? Thanks for any advice you can give!

There have been 15 inputs and 3 outputs.

For a size that big, the fee was too low furthermore the mempool is currently loaded with tons of unconfirmed transaction thats why its no wonder your transaction is stuck right now. Before sending a transaction kindly use a fee estimator like https://bitcoinfees.21.co and check if the mempool is loaded or not.

There are free transaction acceleration services like viabtc and here on our forum https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/freep-bitcoin-transaction-accelerator-for-unconfirmed-txs-2204426
Unfortunately, https://confirmtx.com charges $4 for transactions exceeding 500bytes

Anyways I'll try quequeing your transaction in viabtc
EDIT: I successfully quequed it
EDIT: Viabtc included your transaction in block 489718

The fee is much lower than required for a fast confirmation. See https://btc.com/stats/unconfirmed-tx .
Usually, fees get lower on Sunday, so I expect it'll confirm within 48 hours.
