Guild Wars 2

So just started playing a couple days ago and i am trying to exchange gems for gold but it says “this is currently disabled” seems like its just for my account all my friends can do it right now but they have been playing for months. Can anyone let me know whats going on? thanks

As a security measure for stolen accounts the currency exchange is blocked for some time after you activate your account. I believe it’s 2 days (might be a little more or a little less).

ok, thanks. hopping itll be soon then

Just for future reference to all those who have this issue I did get confirmation from support about this. I tried looking everywhere for an exact answer and couldn’t find anything so here it is.
