My Amazon and eBay purchases have been showing as international for a while, but as they are in sterling haven't attracted any fees from HSBC.
natwest refused to refund the charges shiesters
Sorry, but I don't understand this sentance. What's the connection between Egg and RBS? Do RBS manage cards for Egg - how would Egg customers (like me) know?
The fault with these problems lies with the merchants not the banks. I am a merchant and was advised of the new Debit Mastercard over a year ago. There has been plenty of time to implement the new BIN numbers, which are issued all the time.
The Post Office should not be charging you as you are not using a CC and I believe thats why they charge when making payments. I would kick up a fuss next time.
(someone correct me if I'm wrong)
The method of payment may be irrelevant.
