WP is version 5.0.3
Solved by adding this code to the functions.php file.

/**
* Restore CSV upload functionality for WordPress 4.9.9 and up
*/
add_filter(‘wp_check_filetype_and_ext’, function($values, $file, $filename, $mimes) {
if ( extension_loaded( ‘fileinfo’ ) ) {
// with the php-extension, a CSV file is issues type text/plain so we fix that back to
// text/csv by trusting the file extension.
$finfo = finfo_open( FILEINFO_MIME_TYPE );
$real_mime = finfo_file( $finfo, $file );
