What happened to the allegedly competitive exchange rate? I am getting 1.553 from Billpoint and only
1.5348 from paypal, plus paypal charges a $0.55 withdrawal fee. Why do you pretend that you are competitive, when Billpoint is obviously offering a better deal? The actual wholesale exchange rate today 1.5746.
