They charged me 5% on a recent purchase. That’s more than the regular fees.

Must be a new thing because I wasn’t charged on one last week

I called PayPal. They said there’s a ‘5% cross border fee’ when the payment goes to anywhere that the currency rate is different. The person you send it to does not get charged.

Oh that’s probably why I didn’t get charged then, mine was within the UK
I paid last week by F&F in US with no charge.
Oh, yeh, for international transactions they will charge the fee even if it’s F&F.

My son sent me a friend’s and family payment the other day and it charged him $2.00. I didn’t get charged anything. We are in the US.
The first time I did a friends and family was this year and I was surprised to find out I was charged as well.
Well that would make sense for me then. Because I was sending my money to someone in the US and I am from Canada.
