Dear Expert,

May I know how MBB charge the credit card oversea?
For example, Thai Baht.
If I use credit card to buy something with Thai Bath 500, how much will be in Ringgit Malaysia?
How is the calculation?

Please!! Urgent!! I in Thailand now. Short of money. Please

If it is that urgent and you are not being "pressed" to use your credit card, does it matter ? I take it this is your first time using your credit card overseas.
The bank will charge a reasonable exchange rate and not to suddenly charge you like a loan shark. If they do, you'll hear complaints long time back.

So is how?
Please give me an example.
I am so scare.
Please someone.
