    HOw does google do the currency conversion ...


    today i was shocked to see that for google 1 $ us = 1$ cad .

    and the real is : 1 USD = 1.16805 CAD

    so for each 1$ u make u loose 17 cents .


    i fixed my option 2 get usd next time .

    I e-mailed them yesterday (Sunday in Australia). From past experiences I've found they don't tend to reply on the weekend (maybe they do if it's super urgent). They are pretty good at replying on week days. I would presume they just work with a skeleton staff on weekends.

    I reckon they're being bombarded with e-mails about this at the moment, so maybe there will be a delay in a reply due to the fact that they must be swamped.

    I'm sure they will fix up the problem. I don't mind if they just tack the extra onto my March payment, although the money would have been handy this month.

    Not only Google, if you use PayPal currency conversor, there is always a difference between the real money value for the day.

    I guess they delay 24 hours in update the exchange, not real time values.

    The difference is usually the spread. The amount charged by a bank to convert money.
