Remove the 2 spaces I inserted in the link. https:// chainlist. org/ Click the arrow below the the Polygon network box on Chainlist. There you can find a list of RPCs. Choose one at the top of the list and add it to your MetaMask wallet. The following article is related. Please do what I have suggested above. Let me know how it goes.

> Hello @Democ1, welcome to the MetaMask community, This error means that the gas amount is not enough and you need to increase the gas for the transaction to be executed. Please refer to the following article in this regard. You can get an estimate of the gas parameters from the relevant block explorer at the time of your transaction.

Hi @Democ1,  
I checked your account on the Etherscan and you have 2 pending transactions on the Ethereum network, with the nonces equal to 6 and 7. Seems like you issued the last transaction (nonce=7) to transfer 0 ETH to possibly substitute the pending one, but you have not used the same nonce as the pending transaction. Now, you have two pending transactions.  
**You need to cancel the transaction with nonce=6 first**.  
The following posts can help you.  
Please read " **Canceling a transaction - Method 2: Custom nonce**" carefully.

1. You need to issue a substitute transaction with nonce 6.
2. Send 0 ETH to your account.
3. The gas parameters should be high enough for the transaction to go through. You can get an idea about the gas parameters at the time of your transaction from [Ethersacan gastracher.](https://etherscan.io/gastracker)

@Democ1

I have checked the Etherscan now and you did it correctly this time and both transactions with the nouces 6 and 7 have been cancelled. You currently do not have any pending transactions on the Etherscan.  
Please let us know in case you need further assistance.

The attached image shows the executed replaced transactions with Nonces equal to 6 and 7 and that currently you do not have any pending transactions on the Etherscan.
