Regarding Item 7 International Transactions above, I have some inputs that i would like to share
These are the "exchange rates" I that i had in Indonesia. All have been done on the same date and same place.
Date of Transaction : 08-11-2009
Maybank Visa : 0.000365751
SCB Master : 0.000367261
Alliance Visa : 0.000373044
This actually negates the "Nil" Charges for Alliance bank. Does anybody else has similar findings?
