You are 100% correct there!
In[3]:= FinancialData["USD/GBP"]
Out[3]= 0.4794
In[4]:= FinancialData["USD/GBP", All]
Out[4]= Missing["NotAvailable"]

Plot the log of the Dow-Jones Industrial Average for all available
dates:
DateListPlot[{#1, Log[10, #2]} & @@@ FinancialData["^DJI", All]]

it suggest the option "All" gives *all* available data. Given you have
found USD/GBP for today, then "All" option should have at least todays
data. Very odd.
Even more strange, is that if you enter today's date, it can't be
found either:
In[4]:= FinancialData["USD/GBP"]
Out[4]= 0.4794
In[10]:= FinancialData["USD/GBP", {11, 6, 2007}]
Out[10]= Missing["NotAvailable"]
In[11]:= DateList[]
Out[11]= {2007, 11, 6, 20, 3, 37.1801379}
To be fair, the documentation does say the FinancialData contains
experimental features.
