Trying to book with Jet2 in GBP?

I'm trying to book a flight from Faro to Glasgow with Jet2, and the prices are appearing in EUR.

My debit card provider will charge me 3% + £1.50 to pay in a foreign currency. Is there anyway of changing the currency to GBP?

I've had a scour through the help section, but can't find anything.

TIA

    After selecting the flights, there's a box saying "What currency do you want to pay in?".

    HOWEVER, I wouldn't change it if I were you. I just tried it, and for €702 flights they would charge £643. Your card would charge you about £578 at today's rates if you put it through in EUR.
    Let's settle this like gentlemen: armed with heavy sticks

    And you're Peter Duncan; I gave you fair warning
