What is up with the pound key it's driving me mad when people put £50 or whatever and it doesn't show up as that
Is it me?

Evenin all, £ works fine on the ole laptop. Will ask tech bods to check it out on the app.

My previous post looks OK on the desktop site but shows a variety of £ combinations on the iPhone app. Thanks for raising this, I'll add it to the list.

Hi everyone,
Sorry about that! Don't know where the A came from, but we'll see if Tech do.

The capital A with a hat is caused when our server mis-interprets what your browser sends. From Wikipedia....
For example, the pound sign "£" will appear as "£" if it was encoded by the sender as UTF-8 but interpreted by the recipient as CP1252 or ISO 8859-1. If iterated, this can lead to "£", "£", etc.
