Hi.
My friend sent me $50 USD, but I only recieved $50 CAD. He says he selected USD when he made the transfer. My PayPal account does not have USD currency added to it. Could that be the reason I got the money in canadian funds?

Yeah, you didn't have a USD currency balance so it arrives in CAD, currency automatically converted.
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
