Hello, guys, hope you can help me cause it has never happened to me before.

I have been using PayPal for a year now and I always withdraw money in USD (that's the currency I get my payment), but just today, I have no idea why, while withdrawing, it changed and PayPal automatically converted money from USD to GEL - I can't help myself, but I hope you can give me a hand!

Hi @Maryem_G,

Welcome to the community forum and thanks for posting.

Your question is very account specific and we would be unable to tell you why this has happened over a public forum. I would suggest contacting us via Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/PayPal/, Twitter - @AskPayPal, email or phone and we would be happy to advise.

Gamarjoba,

 

Did you find any solution regarding the issue? 
Every time i transfer funds in USD (my primary currency is USD on paypal balance and on my credit card too), it changes to local currency GEL , it has really bad exchange rate.
