ATMs in Singapore keep asking Accept or Decline Conversion - what does that mean? Shows high charges for this
happened to me at a UOB ATM. screen said “do you accept conversion?” - always NO or DECLINE
That’s called Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC). DECLINE DECLINE
i thought “accept” sounded safe but nope! it added like S$12 extra...
Always choose Decline Conversion. When you “accept,” the ATM sets the exchange rate and adds a huge markup, like 6-8%. Went to HSBC, it asked me there - just press decline.
Always working and easy to find-UOB is a reliable ATM choice in Singapore. But defo without conversion else you'll have more charges
Decline conversion please!!!
