No.. that is just for display. You will have to open a new account in GBP.

Yes, you can send GBP, but you need to open a GBP account, otherwise it will be converted to $ for an extra exchange fee.

As far as I can see I can move my account between GBP and USD by changing the currency at the top right hand of the screen?

Hi

On the Mt.Gox page it says:

You can do bank transfers to our bank in Japan in the following currencies:
USD, GBP, EUR, CAD, CHF, SEK, DKK, NOK, AUD , NZD, HKD, SGD.  Any fee charged by your bank or an intermediate bank will be deducted.  Our bank charges a 1,000 Yen receiving fee.

Does this mean I can send GBP to them and my account will then show a GBP balance. And then I can trade using GBP?

Is this a better option or should I convert to USD and trade in USD?

Thanks.
