I have been on a free plan and would like to upgrade. I live in England, but when I go to upgrade the prices are all in Euros. I would prefer to pay in pounds so I don’t pay extra bank charges for international transactions. I think this is happening because when I first set up my site I was in Finland – however, I was actually only visiting! How can I tell wordpress I am in England?

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

Hi there,

Only staff can change the currency for you. I have flagged this thread for staff assistance. Staff will soon help you out with this :)

If you need staff attention in future then add modlook tag in sidebar.

I’m having the same problem. The blog I need help with is
evanslaboratory.wordpress.com (www.labevans.co.uk).

How do I flag this for staff assistance?

Thanks for your help!

Which currency do you have now?
What do you want Staff to change it too?

When we need Staff help with issues Volunteers cannot resolve like this one we type modlook into the sidebar tags on our forum threads. I did that for you. How do I get a Moderator/Staff reply for my question? https://en.support.wordpress.com/getting-help-in-the-forums/#how-do-i-get-a-moderatorstaff-reply-for-my-question Then we subscribe to this thread so we are notified when they respond. To subscribe look in the sidebar of this thread, find the subscribe to topics link and click it.

Thanks Liz – it is exactly the same problem – it is showing in Euros and I would like to pay in GBP.

Thanks @timethief for showing me this!

Hi @rachelpowell2013,

I added a modlook tag so a staff member can help you with your currency change request.

Best,

David
