I’ve been having the exact same issue since yesterday afternoon. I finally sent a bug report today after trying it about 30 times at different intervals.

That’s interesting cause a couple of days ago I had a ‘’connection error retrying’’ in the GW2 launcher for 4 days, my gw2 launcher just froze up after that connection error retrying and i had to ctrl+alt+del to close it

iono wtf is goin on but i’m sure arena will fix it, maybe some lines got messed up cause trees fell on them. trees crack and fall from the heavy snow all the time, sometimes powerlines sometines internet lines

i say wait it out, that’s what i did

Are you Shpongled?

The currency exchange function worked after a couple of tries on my end. I wouldn’t purchase any gem items though; I’ve been waiting around an hour now and haven’t received the stuff I bought.

Im actually trying to do it the other way around getting gold, but yeah still not working.
I will speak on behalf of them though, if they miss out on buying certain gem items because the exchange was down they should be kept in the gem store for longer

I haven’t had a problem at all. I exchanged for 150 gems to buy reading glasses for my cute female guardian just a few days after Christmas.

Maybe you guys need to clear the GW 2 cache again?

OK I followed this advice posted by StinVec and it fixed my issue. Clear the GW2 Cache.

Clear the game cache

In addition to ‘Running As Administrator’ helping with many issues other than just the TP, most TP-specific issues are primarily related to some temporary GW2 files where removing them will allow them to be recreated and the TP to function properly again.
The quickest way to clear the GW2 Cache is to:

1) Ensure your game is completely closed.

2) Hold your “Windows Key” and press “F” to open Windows Search on your computer.

3) Search for “gw2cache”. It will find a folder called “gw2cache-{bunch-of-letters-and-numbers}” at: “C:\Users\YourComputerUserName\AppData\Local\Temp”
Delete this “gw2cache-{bunch-of-letters-and-numbers}” folder that is shown in the results.

4) Load up your game normally and your TP should now function properly.

Good Luck!!!

I can’t exchange gold for gems either. I’m running the game as administrator, already deleted two (?) gw2chaché*bunchoflettersandnumbers* folders, and still cant make the exchange happen.

I input the ammount and when i click buy, the TP screen fade off and remain in that way till i get bored and close it….
