This question is another duplicate and already answered here by dooode:
Why is my transaction not getting confirmed and what can I do about it?
You have to stop/reverse the old Bitcoin transaction you created without confirmations: Make a backup of your wallet.dat
Run bitcoind or bitcoin-qt with -zapwallettxes=1 option.
This makes the wallet "forget" any unconfirmed transactions, thus enabling you to reuse their inputs.
Create a new transaction to make your payment and add an appropriate fee this time.
You can now send the bitcoins where ever you want or you can send them all back to yourself.
I'm in the same situation. If this info is correct your coins should return in two days: #9312 a72f76c Increase mempool expiry time to 2 weeks (morcos) https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/doc/release-notes/release-notes-0.14.0.md

Now that you've done the zap wallet thing do
bitcoind -rescanand the coins should show in your wallet. – hermancain – 2017-12-23T23:55:58.6671@hermancain you are the mother f&^king man - sorted it with that command! killed the old transaction and made a new one with a better fee, now i understand all that bit! thank you soo much dude!!! – Tim Bradley – 2018-01-11T14:27:58.010
