Yeah, I was able to see more from my computer. So basically if I am using Electrum, transaction fee is around $5-6, but if I am using Xapo,  transaction fee is $30 Cheesy

Xapo have two options , with two fees. Do you want Instant Transaction which means approx 20-30 Minutes then fees is around 0.0012 BTC and for 7-8 Hours transaction fees is around 0.0003-0.0007 depends on what amount of btc is going to be in transaction.

I don't think xapo has transaction fees below 0.001 btc nowadays.

Is Xapo scam now? I have a few bucks there but its impossible to do something with them. Firstly, it asked me to verify my phone number, in a text message it told me that I cannot use it on the web and I have to download xapo app.
Then it asked me for a selfie... seriously?!! and when I have done everything and was trying to move out my money, it told "fatal error - cannot load fees"

The transaction costs more than the "few bucks" you have in your balance.

They need to keep high fees so their users get funds fast when withdrawing.
It's undestandable tbh. BTC wise, fees have remained the same, it's the $ price that is causing issues.

I'd suggest everyone withdraw from sites/services in general when BTC price drops, so you can save money on fees.
