For the past few months, I have been getting charged $2.99 for FP and a $0.02 foreign transaction fee. I understand that there is a fee and that it's perfectly normal since money is going over the border to LMG/FPM. This last month though, I was charged a $0.06 fee. Are there some new rates that I am unaware of? I want an explanation as to why the fee would've tripled within a month.

Nothing to do with LMG. Your bank or PayPal are taking fees.

What @Abdul201588 is saying is ask paypal or your back, not ltt forum. We don't know why they would increase fees

Insanity is not the absence of sanity, but the willingness to ignore it for a purpose. Chaos is the result of this choice. I relish in both.

I realize that its due to my bank/PayPal, but why would the fee suddenly go up so much?

 

You have to ask your bank about that. This is because you are using different currency. Your bank has decided that when you pay at some other currency than local, they take extra fee. You can go around this by selecting to pay with your own currency in PayPal. But I don't know if you would pay more or less. Usually your own bank has best exchange rate.
