Sharpiemarker, you clueless ignorant, stop giving this stupid advice and misleading people.. You are giving this false advice since start of this topic. Would you please shut up?  ... View more

What if I pay directly with a credit card on Ebay without going through my PayPal account?  Is it still going to be converted by Paypal?   If it doesn't work, I am going to take a screenshot and then make a chargeback against Paypal because it is a DCC violation of MasterCard/VISA rules.  I have tested it. Unfortunately, Paypal rates apply 😞 ... View more

@sharpiemarker wrote: Now this is what the current user agreement say about how conversions work for purchases.  Read it to see if anything applies In terms of payment method used and the ability to select conversion options during checkout:   When you purchase goods from a merchant who accepts payment only in a specific currency that you do not hold in your PayPal balance, the currency conversion will occur at the time your transaction is processed and the exchange rate in effect at the time of the transaction will be used for this currency conversion. If PayPal converts the currency, we will use an exchange rate set by our bank (adjusted from time to time based on market conditions) to perform the conversion, and you’ll be charged an additional 2.5% of the amount of the transaction as a currency conversion “spread.” When your payment is funded by a debit or credit card and requires a currency conversion, you consent to and authorize PayPal to convert the currency in place of your debit or credit card issuer. You have the right to have your card issuer perform the currency conversion and can choose this option during checkout on your transaction review page before you complete the transaction. If your card issuer converts the currency, you’ll be charged a rate set by them (shown on your statement), and you’ll be subject to any fees and terms set by them related to the conversion. PayPal will always perform the conversion for transactions where your PayPal balance or linked bank account is the payment method.   ----   If it still don't work, then something wrong with function and should be reported to tech support: https://www.paypal-techsupport.com/app/ask   Sharpiemarker, why are you quoting this useless text? It looks like you support this criminal fraud, by misinforming users. The conversion option has been switched off on purpose and it is not a technical issue. Stop misinforming people, you clueless ignorant. ... View more

There is no need to contact technical support. This change has been done on purpose and it is just a way to make some extra money by Paypal & Ebay before Christmass.   Please note, that on other websites, when you buy through Paypal you still have this option to use your bank's echange rate. It is just kind of Ebay-Paypal criminal agreement.   ... View more

Guys, what Paypal has inroduced is just a criminal 10% charge on all of our foreign transactions on ebay. Just don't buy anything on ebay, on other sites you are able to switch to your bank's exchange rate. ... View more
