Currency Converter not working

This is frustrating. Why am I suddenly after years of recieving US dollars am I suddenly having to convert each payment myself ? Not just that, but when I convert from US dollar to UK pounds, the converter is giving it me the results the wrong way round from UK pounds to US dollar. For instance, I opt for $24 to be converted to UK pounds  and the result is $40. I then opt to convert $24 from UK pounds to dollars and the results are then correct at £16 BUT I had to get it converted the wrong way round. In both instances though I can't proceed as the "continue" button is greyed out !!!

Hello,

Yeh, I am having same issue for days now. My USD payment usually gets converted into GBP automatically each month, but not for August, and it is not letting me take any action either to convert it into GBP. If I try to transfer into a bank account, it is doing it as USD, so decided not to go ahead with that as there could be other fees involved in doing it that way.

Frustrated, as have tried to look under HELP and have not got far.

Any advice ??

Obviously no help here for us then 😞

 

It is still broken and won't convert dollars to pounds unless you select pounds to dollars. Even then it won't let you proceed to the next step. What is happeneing !!!!
