How to fix Currencies Direct not working
Currencies Direct is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Check Currencies Direct reports
The status at the top shows whether problem reports for the service are above their usual level over the last 24 hours, counted in 15-minute windows. A usual level points to a local fault, so try the next step.
Retry Currencies Direct on mobile data
Turn off any VPN, then move from Wi-Fi to mobile data and retry the sign-in or transfer. A blocked network or a stale connection can make the app hang before it reaches the login screen, and the retry tells you if the fault follows the network.
Clear the app cache
On Android, open Settings > Apps > Currencies Direct > Storage & cache > Clear cache, then reopen the app. iPhone has no clear-cache control. Delete the app and reinstall it from the App Store.
Reset sign-in and recipient details
If the sign-in screen rejects your password, use the Forgot password link there and follow the email link. If a transfer stalls on recipient details, check the account number, sort code, IBAN, and SWIFT/BIC against the recipient's bank details, then retry.
While Currencies Direct is down: what to use instead
- Currencies Direct website If the app is the only thing failing, log in from a browser to send or track a transfer.
- Wise Wise works for bank-to-bank transfers and shows the rate before you send.
- Revolut If you already hold a balance there, it can cover a quick transfer or a card payment while the app is unavailable.
- Your bank's international transfer For a transfer you cannot delay, your bank can move the money even if the rate and fees cost more than a specialist service.

What happens when Currencies Direct goes down
Currencies Direct is an online foreign exchange and money transfer service for people and businesses sending funds abroad. An outage interrupts sign-in and the transfer flow you need to move money.
Sign-in problems usually show up first: the app may reject your password or spin on the loading screen. If you get past that, rate quotes can stall or show an old figure, and transfer forms may fail when you try to confirm a payment. Bank transfer setup can hang after you submit it, leaving a pending transfer with no confirmation. The trouble is often partial: one platform or one payment route can fail while the rest works, and the status at the top of this page only reflects whether user problem reports are above their usual level in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours.

How we track Currencies Direct
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Currencies Direct, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Currencies Direct, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. Currencies Direct doesn't publish a public status page that we know of, so user reports are often the quickest sign that something is wrong on their side.
