    All the transactions I completed using PayPal over the past few years I paid out a lot using their terrible currency exchange rate. The whole time while doing this I never knew there was an option where I could use my own bank for the currencý exchange.

    Here is a video that a guy posted on a watch forum showing you how to change your currency exchange option, hopefully this will help save some others a few quid.
