Re: Android alerts use USD instead of AUD

horacerampol · ‎10-09-2020

Hi,

I've been using eBay for years and, as far as I noticed, eBay on Android has recently started to use USD (US Dollar) when it shows the amount bid on items I'm selling instead of AUD (Australian Dollar). AUD is defined as the currency in my preferences for ages and I can't find anywhere else to change that.

Once I enter the Android app it correctly shows the bid price in AUD, as it should.

What can I do to get it to use the right currency?

Thanks.

Have you checked that you're logged into ebay,com.au and not ebay.com ?

Edit. G'day Stawks.

Log into ebay.com.au

Not just ebay.com - that's the USA site

How do I do this on with the Android app? I don't see a way to specify that.

The "Country or Region" setting under "Settings" already says "Australia"

One thing I DID change now is to turn off "auto-detect region" and leave it as "Australia". (auto-detect already set it to Australia but just in case).

I can't help you with that I'm afraid, I only use a desktop computer.

Sorry, in reply to horacerampol

I can only suggest to stop using the app.

Go Full site or Classic site with your browser.

The app has always been fraught with problems anyway.

Thanks for the suggestion but it's not quite an option for me - other than that annoyance I find the app much more convenient on the phone than the web site.

Can't you type in the address bar manually ? - ebay.com.au

So if you google then type the address and it should revert to the app but hopefully the AU version.

I talk to my android - makes googling so much easier
