charlieprend Posted August 30, 2017 Share Posted August 30, 2017 Hi there. I tried to find a similar thread on this but cannot see one. Apologies if this is a duplicate. I am loving user Fiverr as a buyer but am having trouble reconciling accounts. It appears that for every $6 spent at Fiverr I am charged £8.90 by my bank. $6 should be around £4.65 so presumably there are additional charges but I am not sure where these are from. Does anyone know if this is likely to be Fiverr, Paypal or bank charges. Whilst I appreciate it isn’t a huge amount I do order a lot of gigs and will usually tip meaning that I am usually being charged twice for each transaction and would prefer not to incur the additional charges if possible.
