Long story short Purchased a headset from Bose for NZD1745. I specifically chose to have my multi-currency credit card charged in NZD but instead, was charged in my card's local currency of SGD1662.40. This was NOT authorised by me nor was it communicated to me throughout the checkout process. What's the point of giving us currency conversion options when you are going to revert back to the card's local currency on the backend? Almost **bleep** my pants when i saw that Paypal went ahead by themselves and converted the NZD1745 to SGD. I had NZD sitting patiently in the multi-currency card account that was never touched. Ended up, i did not keep the product. Bose gave a full refund for NZD1745 and Paypal reimbursed my card an amount of SGD1523.14!! How does this even make sense?! Just like that, i lost almost SGD200. Rubbish.
