Title: PayPal exchange rate , scammers! Post by: cech4204a on July 15, 2014, 10:24:11 AM Hello
I was just curious what exchange rate is PayPal using with your purchases? I bought something in $ and i pay in €, they used exchange rate of : Exchange rate: 1 EUR = 1.30631 USD For comparison here is what yahoo finance chart throws out: EUR/USD (EURUSD=X) 1.3595 Down 0.0025(0.1800%) 6:23AM EDT I see a big scamm here, that' just not acceptable, more than 4% difference is just too much. What do you think about that? Title: Re: PayPal exchange rate , scammers! Post by: Gianluca95 on July 15, 2014, 10:55:08 AM Have you tryed to see the commission of Paypal? Commission of paypal is: 3.4% (I'm not sure, but I think that is it).
Maybe in that conversion it is include the Paypal commission. Title: Re: PayPal exchange rate , scammers!

What do you think about that? And? This is nothing new, they handle these prices for many years. It's a company, they need to make money. Is it too high? Yes. But there is nothing you can do about it. |
