Sender accidentally did not use Personal Transaction to send me money.

Long time Paypal user here.  I had a friend lend me $2000 and offered to send it to me via PP.  She apparently didn't use the "Personal Transaction" protocol and consequently I was charged almost $60 to receive the funds (she could have easily mailed a check).  I contacted PP customer support and appealed but to no avail.  HOWEVER I was advised that if I return the funds that the charge would be removed.  I did that shortly after the phone call and I see that while PP pulled $2000 out of my associated bank account, my PP account is still showing $1940 and change.  Is there any other way to appeal this charge?

Whoever said to you that refunding the goods and services payment would refund the fee is wrong.
