Zyxlsy: check your statement to be sure. Carbon slips in particular - you may have circled HKD but the terminal will simply ignore it (figuring you or your bank couldn't be bothered to chargeback).

Thermal slips with no mention of USD are definitely DCC-free and need not be checked.
I always look at the slip to see whether the amount is shown in HKD, and I go through my transactions each time I come back from HK. Now, for more than 100 transactions there, all my HKD requests are fulfilled. I love that place.

Maybe I don't go to ...... places, or Lan Kwai Fong...
