Hi

I've got paypal standard installed. My payment preferences are set to UKP. My default currency in DB is set to UKP. But when I try to made a payment from my site (in £'s), I get the following error message when transferring to PayPal:

"This recipient does not accept payments denominated in USD. Please contact the seller and ask him to update his payment receiving preferences to accept this currency."

can anyone point me in the right direction to correct this? I've checked the contributions, but can't find a fix.

Cheers Kate

The problem is with Pay Pal. They updated their systems around a week ago, and being a USA firm they only checked it was working for US Dollars. Transactions in other currencies are failing left, right and centre.

They are aware of the problem and working on it - but as to when they resolve it, your guess is as good as mine.

They messed up big time!

Thanks your reply Vger!

I guess I'll have to sit tight and wait for them to sort it!
