Changing Currency To USD

    Hello, I am an American who gets paid in America. I am currently traveling and trying to set up my blog. It keeps showing me GBP as the currency (I’m assuming because I am traveling in England) but with the current conversion rate, it would be way too expensive for me to purchase the premium site hosting. Basically, if I was in the US it would cost me 80 total but since I am here and with the conversion it would cost around 100.

    I am just starting out and want to use WordPress but I am already turned off by it. It is going to cost an arm and leg to set up and since there is no way to contact customer support until after you’ve paid, there is no way to get this sorted by someone before making the purchase. It just feels like bad customer service. I’m leaning towards using a different web hosting program now that maybe is less stressful?

    WP.com: Yes
    Jetpack: No
    Correct account: Yes

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there, I’ve switched your currency over to USD; you should see it now when you next go to view the prices! If anything else comes up, feel free to let us know.

    Just out of curiosity, what sort of site are you planning to set up? If you’re wanting more of a simple blog then it could be worth looking at the Personal plan too! Feel free to let us know what you’re aiming for and we’ll be happy to point you in the right direction.
