  I’ve just set up a new id and website and the currency is in dollars. My other wordpress site gives me options in pounds and an option to map a domain name for 11 pounds a year. How do I get the new profile to be a uk one and not US?

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

  Your account settings have a language setting:

  See these documents:

  For your website, Under Settings -General set Language to en-gb (you might have to scroll down to more languages to find it.) I suspect that will give you the correct currency, etc..

  I went on a live web chat with Ben C. (staff) and he converted the account from USD to GBP. Something they can only do from the back end apparently. Any way he is a star and my problem is all fixed.
