I received a refund on 6th September and the conversion rate from euro to RON (my countries currency) is highly wrong ! (1 EUR = 3,1997 RON) , 1 euro is not even close to 3,1997 RON , it is a lot higher (1 EUR = 4,8215) and now i find myself with less money in my account than i spent , a lot less money . (i payed 13,79 euro , equivalent to 70,70 RON and the refund would be 44,14 RON) . Please help me , i tried to call someone at paypal but no succes.

Okay... and what did you do? Have you talked to someone from paypal ?

This is not okay and they need to solve this , we suffer a loss here, a very big one...

the customer service line should open in an hour or so, i’m planning to call them and ask (i’m not sure but the exchange might get updated twice a day, so I’m waiting until i make a withdrawal)

I’ve called and they said that it’s no mistake and this is the current rate because of what’s going on in the world but said there is a way to change the exchange rate of your bank’s issuer, does anyone know where to find that option?

They told you lies and **bleep** . This is their fault and not ours or our bank . Check the conversion rate today and you can calculate yourself and see that the sum does not correspond with their sum (at least in my case)...

 

I haven t seen any option like that , you cannot do what they say , this is not solving this problem
