Receiving payments in 2 different currencies

[alerua]

Hello, I set up my account to receive payments in sterling (my primary account) and in euros. At the paypal information, it is said that if I receive a transfer in euros, I should automatically receive it in euros, as I did the set up for so. However, this is not happening and i need help. I do not want to use the converter, otherwise I will be paying 3 times for the same service - I paid already to receive the payment; paid the conversion rate from euros to sterling. 

So, could someone help me please as I really need to receive my payments in euros and sterling, depending of the original transfer currency.

Many thanks!
