Why can't I change default currency on my account ?

[brayveheart]

Hi

I have a standard PayPal account and default currency is USD. It also has GBP listed. There appears to be no way to action changing my default currency from USD to GBP. I go into Wallet and it shows the following screen. WHen I click 3 elipses next to GBP nothing happens. Have changed browser, device etc etc all same. Added HKD to see whether that would work; it doesn't!  Help !

Same issue but its in GBP. I use Euro. Recently linked my Perx reward MasterCard to Paypal. i have been buying stuff online (all in Ireland and all in Euro) yet its converted in Pounds and i am charged a few euro more per transaction for this transaction which makes no sense as all Irish companies. I rang my Perx card holders and they said that its a common issue with Paypal and currency issues but Paypal wont take any account for it. I linked my Perx card to Paypal last year and didn't have this problem so its obviously something to do with Brexit. I am interested to see if anyone else knows more about this currency issue as PayPal won't take accountability whatsoever. There is about €40 extra in charges made on the transactions so id really like it sorted!
