Using new Paypal Rest API does not accept payment in GBP

Question

I get a 400: Bad Request error when trying to make payment in GBP, where as USD is working fine. I am getting this error since last few days earlier it was working fine, I think the issue has started after Paypal has made changes to its site rencently.

Also all the payment is going to a default sandbox account (it has a word facilitator appended to it, I did not create this account) I am not sure if I can change and set a sandbox account that I created as default account for receiving payment. Any idea?

Any suggestion would be helpful.

Currently the REST API's only support USD, passing a different currency can cause errors to be generated. There are plans to eventually support additional currencies, but currently it is only set up for USD.
