Someone transferred some EUR into my UK Paypal some time ago, and the EUR have been sitting in my Paypal EUR subaccount ever since.
Is it possible to transfer those EUR from Paypal into my UK Revolut EUR subaccount, keeping in EUR all the time (ie never exchanging into GBP then back to EUR etc..), without fee ?

    Some people on Reddit talk about linking a Revolut debit card to PayPal:

    "You need to add card (can be virtual) in revolut and then add that card to paypal and specify its currency as one you want to transfer (in my case I specified it as USD). Then make transfer from paypal to revolut specifying this card as a destination. Since card is in the same currency as you want to transfer, paypal do this without conversion. It just adds transfer fee of $2.50"
