lukaszthegreat: wait what?
non aud? so you have in australian bank or chinese bank??
Bigs: My main bank account is Australian. I have a VISA Debit card. Unfortunately VISA/my bank (not sure who is responsible) slap a $4.50 fee on every overseas (non-Australian) transaction. With less than $4 in the bank.. that makes even a $2.99 or whatever purchase impossible.
Chinese bureaucracy makes it anywhere from a royal pain in the arse to virtually impossible to send money out of the country, and my Chinese bank doesn't provide a VISA/MasterCard option, nor the ability to wire money.
Oh well... here's hoping I'll be moving to a more open country sooner rather than later :P
What bank are you using.
I have regular CC but also a debit card which works like CC but can only spend the amount i have on my balance, from NAB.
I pay 14 cents for gog transaction/steam. The same when I pay overseas.
They are robing you blind!
