Cheers for the answer David! do you know any way to change the fee when sending it? My exchange set the fee really low and really screwed me over here.

The sender could have specified any fee they wanted to. Unfortunately, it's not particularly easy to raise the fee on a transaction. It might not be their fault, they may have submitted the transaction just before fees shot up. But most exchanges are using around three times that fee right now.
