HSBC Global Money Account

Has anyone managed to get Global Money working nicely with YNAB? Some of the challenges I've noticed are

  1. YNAB assumes this is a GBP account - it doesn't cope with the fact it handles multiple currencies (not YNAB's fault I assume, it's a slightly different account than usual)

  2. I've just created a new plan, connected the account but none of my transactions (all EUR) are pulling through.

So it looks like my only option would be to enter transactions manually if I wanted to track my spends? And HSBC make that a bit more annoying by not letting me export my transactions from the mobile app.

If anyone's cracked this I'd love to hear it - if not it might be manual for me :-)
