then they send it to the swissfrancs account but as i need it in euro i have to change it back and lose again. and all this after the very high rate they already charge for the billing.

imagine if someone pays to me they charge 1st time - if i pay the same money to someone else or buy something they charge second time - and if i do not want to buy anything with paypal and prefer to get the money in cash they fuck me again on the highest level.

i call that criminal.
but you can´t complain to them. if you complain they are freezing the account for many many month and you learn that it is not a good idea to complain anything.
