Blockchain wallet sends random number instead of what I type

[Georgy1122]

I logged in blockchain wallet today I had 27$ remaining in my wallet. I wanted to send 22$ to someone so I put 22$ and fee 4$ I confirm and when I go at pending it says 6.97 and fee 4$ WTF?

I try again saying I messed up and send 15$ and fee 4$ confirm and goes 5$ and 4$, I try a 3rd time I send 10$ and fee 3$ and it sends 12$ and 3$ like what the actual..

Funny because if you sum all those 3 transactions up it's more than 27$ I had initially when I logged in so whats happening?

You're using Bitcoin... so use "Bitcoin" values... don't attempt to use "fiat" aka "dollar" values... you'll end up in trouble. The value of Bitcoin as it relates to the USD is quite volatile... open up a browser window on any exchange that trades BTC/USD and you'll see what I mean

Even though you put in $ amounts, b.info is using BTC values for the transactions (it has to, it is sending BTC after all... not USD$!)... There are likely to be exchange rate issues and fluctuations in currency value.
