If you want use your own exchange rate then get your funds exchanged locally.  When using PayPal for exchange you will pay the PayPal fee and exchange rate.

If that is not acceptable then you could choose a different payment service.

It would be greatly appreciated, if someone senior, employed at PayPal, would kindly actually read and evaluate the numbers in my complaint issue.

If you want an answer from PayPal you need to phone PayPal support and ask.

There is a bid and ask price for every exchange rate,also when the market is open,the rate fluctuates.

Paypal also charges a 3% conversion fee.
