Hi, I've been trying to convert my dollar balance to my pounds balance so that I can use it. I've been using paypal for a couple of years now and convert dollars to pounds all of the time with no issue whatsoever.
But the past few days whenever I try I receive this error after clicking to convert my dollars to pounds, trying again doesn't work either? I thought it might go away if I waited, but it's been three days now and this error occurs every time I try to convert currency. It's really annoying, since I can't use my money whilst it's in this state? I can't withdraw to my bank unless it's converted to pounds!
Thank you!

I was getting the same error today and looked around for solutions. I always convert to php before withdrawing. A moderator on this thread suggested this so I tried to make a direct transfer to my bank account and it appears that paypal will do the conversion automatically. I have already received the email that says my funds are on the way.

Hope this helps!

I have the very same problem. Have you found any solution yet? It seems that the issue's only happening on euro-related activities.

I am having the same problem converting from GBP to USD. Been happening since mid-January. I finally got around to opened a support ticket a week ago, but no solution given yet. This is not acceptable! They are holding my money and I can't get to it.

Hey. Can someone help me, I cannot convert my currency into Peso, it says try again later. I've been trying it for 2 days, and I still can't. What am I supposed to do?

Hi @Eden_Dea2018 , are you still getting the error prompt? My euro to php conversion had started working again after almost a month since I first left a comment here. Before that I had to send my money over a trusted fellow to have them converted to peso which is a hassle. I suggest that you wait it out and in the meantime find other ways to convert your money.

I have a similar problem, I converted 71$ to euros but never received the money, it says that the transaction was successfully completed even tho I didn't get my money. And now if I try to convert again I get an error.
