Hello,
My name is Paul Carr. I am in China. I have an AIB Debit Card account. The card says Maestro/Laser/Banklink on it. I got my personal bank statement earlier this month for May. (May 13th). Prior to the issuance of that statement, I made one ATM withdrawal from an ATM machine in China within the previous accounting month. That transaction is shown on my personal bank statement for May. Regarding that transaction, it mentions the commission, which is charged separately, as well as the 0.39% mastercard scheme fee. However, nowhere on the statement is any mention made of any currency conversion fee levied for my one transaction.
I'd be grateful if someone could enlighten me as to what is going on here. If there is indeed an invisible currency conversion fee, how much is it?
When I was in Hong Kong in January, it was the same story. The ATM withdrawals I mad(in Hong Kong dollars) are stated including both the mastercard scheme fee and the separate commission fee but not the currency conversion fee.
