Recent changes to Paypal checkout process have removed the option I used to get to select Who converts currency. I prefer my Bank convert currency but the option is removed altogether and paypal charges my card in my local currency.
I see that the option to select who converts doesnt appear at all now during payment. I want to know if there is a settings I could change or some other way to by default let my bank convert currency for me.
Solved! Go to Solution.

I think they may be violating EU law since they do not display the actual price they're charging at any point during the transaction, e.g. in my case I only saw an USD amount and could only see how much I was actually charged afterwards.
I am informing authorities about this process.
Well, it looks like they weren't named PayPal Mafia for nothing

Someone or the OP by accident marked this question as having a solution. I suggest creating a brand new question and start fresh.

That page isn't working for me, it just redirects to Manage Funding Sources (https://www.paypal.com/myaccount/autopay/connect/funding-sources text: "Choose your preferred way to pay for your subscriptions and automatic payments. Remember, we’ll always use your PayPal balance first.") and not the content described.
