Apart from the currency translation, paypal charges you RM20.00 if you withdraw and trf to your credit card a/c, but if transfer to you bank a/c its free for RM400>, and RM3 for amount <RM400. All these are stated in your paypal a/c, just login to paypal and click withdrawal

ok nice... my friend also will not be charged with any hidden fees...?
He need to choose "Payment owed", correct...?

What the diff between "Cleared" and "Completed"

how ?

any charges?

Yes
Withdraw funds > Withdraw to your bank account > Add bank account

Free - If RM400.00 MYR or more is withdrawn
RM3.00 MYR - If less than RM400.00 MYR is withdrawn

but my account is USD currency. Do i need to convert to MYR first before i request transfer?

The USD will be converted to MYR. There is a built-in currency convertor tool that you can use.

Thank you~

CIMB Bank Debit card, Can It Verify Paypal?

Website doesn't say anything about it. I have a saving account and was thinking about converting it into debit card.

Has anyone tried it?

If its linked to ur savings account, u cant verify it with paypal

If ure using the e-mastercard only paypal can verify it.

I paid USD 7.98 for some services using PayPal. My PayPal account 's currency is RM.

Before I pay, I expect that I will be charged RM2X.XX according to the conversion rate at http://www.xe.com/ucc/convert/?Amount=7.98&From=USD&To=MYR .

However, I only being charged RM15.XX.

This is a good news for me because I am paying cheaper. Thankfully. But, how can this be happened? PayPal offer different conversion rate when converting USD to RM to make me pay less?

Maybe you overlooked ? Is hard to believe unless you show the print screen of that particular transaction. RM/US forex never drop below RM2 thru out my entire life.

It is unbelievable to me too. But, click the following thumbnail sized picture and then zoom it to see the full size one:



My PayPal account was linked to my Public Bank Day2Day Visa card. According to online banking, amount on hold also RM15.44.

The forex was based on 0.310241 and conversion for USD4.79 only not USD7.98

I put more censorship to my private data and re-uploaded. If still cannot see, then tell me.

I think you overlooked la..

But the actual amount charged is RM15.44 only. Because according to online banking, the amount on hold in my debit card also RM15.44.

And, please note that my paypal balance is RM0.00 even before the payment.

But why the US4.79 ?? you paid US4.79 or US7.98 ?

And the screenshot i posted also showing "Net amount -$7.98USD (equals -RM15.44)".

Added on January 13, 2012, 5:42 pmYou can see the amount $7.98 USD, showed under "Original Transaction".

the $4.79 USD that you said is conversion from RM15.44 into USD.

In Paypal, convert $7.98 USD to RM = RM15.44, but convert RM15.44 to USD = USD $4.79. Don't know why.

From the statement. Nothing wrong with the exchange. Because it was based on US4.79.
So you only need to find out why it becomes US4.79.

I also hope that someone can tell me the reason. The merchant did charge me US$7.98, and my paypal balance is always $0 even before the payment, that mean nothing deducted from my paypal balance.
