conversion fee

[pamyla]

I just called my credit card company and discovered that they charge a 3% conversion fee on all international purchases. I had planned to use this for my shipboard account. Where will it look like this charge is coming from?

Thanks!

Your shipboard account is billed in US dollars so there is no conversion fee.

It didn't even occur to me that conversion fee had to do with the currency (I was thinking in terms of countries) duh http://messages.cruisecritic.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_razz.gif Thanks for clarifying.
