Are they sending you payments in sterling or their currency?

[claudia34]

She should have sent sterling as now you are going to have to pay currency conversion fees.

What you have to do now is go and click on this icon next to your balance (>), then select 'manage currencies' under the pop up box.

Select USD from the drop down list on the left as a 'receiving currency' and the funds 'should' show up.

Then you would have to go back to the same place but the right side of that page to convert it to sterling (and pay the conversion fees).

You should have insisted she paid in sterling which is very easy for her to do but unfortunately a lot of U.S buyers seem to think we want their dollars when we don't.
