Has anyone seen this? I go pay online for something in EUR using a mastercard. It defaults to Paypal doing the conversion to my currency (AUD), so I select "conversion options" and click the button to pay in EUR and ... nothing changes. It still shows that Paypal are going to do the conversion.

Yes I experienced the same issue twice already with CHF and EUR and it is super annoying,as the Paypal exchange course probably is really bad compared to the open rate and I would have an account in EUR anyways. One might suspekct that Paypal does that intentionally to earn some money. And theres only a German Phone number to contact. Really unsatisfying...
