Hey Friend, Thanks for Immediate Reply. Very very thanks

I was reading THIS blog post and found this:

There is no other additional charge for using HDFC Bank NetSafe or HDFC Bank Regular Savings account, it is totally free, however the bank charges 3.5% of transaction amount, which is applicable for all banks and all cards – be it debit card, credit cards or virtual credit cards. It can make your life simpler as it is universal acceptance – there are no fees for using and creating NetSafe.

So please comment on / clear this

now it might be 1-2 days, but earlier it was 40 days , i know coz i got refunded only after 40 days
and alsi it written in their terms and conditions as well!!

Same to you

HDFC will charge some amount for the currency conversion. When you are doing a currency conversion, you are actually buying $$$ from the bank, and hence the bank charges service tax to the amount. it has always been charged to my credit card whenever I have made a $$$ transaction.

3.5% foreign currency charge levied for the transactions done.
Further, If a foreign currency transaction made on your
credit card/VCC, the amount debited will be as per the exchange rate
prevailing at the time of purchase.
Further, in reply, for all the transactions done on your Credit Card
Account/VCC outside India, the Card Member shall be remitting the
equivalent transaction amount in Indian Currency.
The amount billed to the Card Member in the monthly statement shall be
converted into Indian Currency as per the current conversion rate at
the time of the transaction, as per the VISA Regulations.

However the conversion rates will be applicable as per Foreign
Exchange Rules which are volatile and decided by VISA for each day.

Hope it helps
