If I have dollars, are they converted for account fees, thus making them higher? There's very poor clarity up front on the

So, it's much like a pending amount. Thanks for the clarification, very helpful!

I've it too, it's very unusual. What could we 'owe'. It's a massive amount. Can anyone shed light on this? @CharlotteIG
