lynsteve Posted January 11, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Is it true that i can buy from RCI $US at a better rate from RCI than i can from my bank in Australia. If so i guess i get in touch with RCI but where does the cash go, straight into my on board credit, anyone know the procedure Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted January 11, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 11, 2016 While not as good as it was last year buying OBC through Royal is still a few vpcents cheaper than the bank rate. I know in Canada we call gifts and gear or C&A to make the purchase. I would check the Australian website for one of those numbers but local to you. Make sure you know what the bank is charging and then ask what Royal is charging just to make sure it is a bit cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SensFan11 Posted January 11, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I'm also not sure about the case with Australians, but lots of reports on the "Canadian cruisers!!" thread that the great rate for Canadians buying US dollars ended last week :(. Reports are that for on board credit gifts and gear is now charging C$1.40 per US dollar. Up until last week, they charged C$1.10 per US dollar.

lynsteve Posted January 14, 2016 Author #4 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Here's what we have found out, today's exchange rate via a bank will be $1 AU will get .68US, if we go via RCI we get .77US. And we can transfer cruise to cruise as OBC.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
