Default Re: Multi currency modul

Hi, I have a problem.

I am using this module and have all my prices in $USD. I then use this module to show pricing in AUD-Australian dollars and NZD - New Zealand dollars.


The problem first arose when a New Zealand customer purchased a product and went through the credit card payment process and instead of their credit card being charged AUD$859.20 they were in fact charged only $703.80. I checked the amount by running a dummy and $703.80 appeared on the banks page so it appears that it is using the USD figure and not the Australian figure.

Here's a sample:


USD
Exchange
NZ
AUD
Credit Card Processor
Item:
615.00

935.63
750.87

Shipping
88.80

135.10
108.42

TOTAL
703.80
.64662
1,070.73
859.20
AUD703.80

The amount of the Credit Card transaction reflects USD and not AUD, so therefore shows incorrect amount in favour of customer (i.e. I lose money or have to correct with customer)
I see in the admin panel that it says this:

Alternative currency symbol (empty to disable). Note that credit card charges are made using primary currency

Is there any way of changing the primary currency so that a secondary currency can pass to a credit card processor? If not I will have to change all my pricing to Australian dollars which in fact is the reason why I needed the module in the first place because I buy in USD.

These people are having same problem but it has nothing to do with your mod.
