Where can you find the actual domestic currency paid other than your bank statement?

For example, at checkout, amazon said the grand total is EUR 100, and that is paid by an UK credit card, is there any way to know how much GBP is actually paid other than waiting for the bank statement?

    Oh, you want to know about Amazon's and/or your Bank's conversion fees?
  • fy222fy222 Member Posts: 200
    yes, exactly....

    Does anyone here have any idea of that?

    Is barclays cheaper than Natwest/TSB, for example...

    Last time I ordered Lego from amazon.fr, they gave the payable amount on the bill/receipt both in Euro and GBP.

    I actually think I recall that they even gave the price in GBP when I made the order.

    @AvengerDr Thanks. It really helps. So the base currency is the EUR in this case?

    @mressin sometimes it shows, probably because you used amazon's own currency conversion rate.

    ^Yes, it was an amazon conversion service.
