Has anyone done this? It must be possible to claim for PayPal (including the cost for currency conversion) on your tax return, EBay, Shopify, Upwork, Greatcontent, Textbroker and so on but how many of us do it? What about survey fees? YouGov and so on? That might also be worth a try.

Yes, this is the wrong forum.
But, of course you are self employed and flogging stuff online, of course you can claim PayPal fees, the cost for currency conversion, eBay, Shopify, whatever fees on your tax return.
What do you mean by "survey fees? YouGov and so on"? Isn't that income? HMRC will happily tax that if you declare it. But why on worth would you?
Perhaps you need an accountant.

I don't really understand what you mean but as antrobus says of course you can claim all fees when acting in the course of a business. My tax returns offset my income with all my eBay and PayPal fees ,I claim my business postage as a business expense as well.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the eBay, Auctions, Car Boot & Jumble Sales, Boost Your Income, Praise, Vents & Warnings, Overseas Holidays & Travel Planning , UK Holidays, Days Out & Entertainments boards.
