Good news about Philippine PayPal withdrawal

Tweet

I read some blogs that paypal automatically convert the withdrew amount to local currency of the country (it was also indicated to their frequency question about withdrawal). There was this one person too that did this withdrawal to his dollar account but the credited money was already in peso when she checked... And so I wrote paypal last night and asked if I can withdraw my balance and transfer it to my dollar account. And if possible to send the money in US Dollar currency and not in Philippine peso since I will be using a dollar account? I also asked, if they are not doing this yet, is there a chance in the near future to add this special feature for us who have dollar account? I just wanted to share the answer of paypal to all. And I am very happy to their response. Below is the copy of their letter to me. [b]I have great news for you! Currently, for Philippine PayPal accounts, you have the option to withdraw money to a U.S or local bank account. If you will use your dollar account for the payment withdrawal, you will not incur any fees because your funds will be transferred in U.S. dollars as well. We are happy to have you as a customer and appreciate your business. Thanks for writing and thank you for choosing PayPal. Sincerely, Nina PayPal, an eBay Company Copyright© 2011 PayPal Inc.
