I brought the issue at hand to THEIR attention shortly after I left the hotel because I knew that DCC was in the works.

Schwab asked me to wait 3 days until the charge posted. I did, it was 3.1% higher than what had been initially approved, and I contested it.
Have they initiated the chargeback, or you are still in the 3-day waiting period?

I went to 上海交通大学 once. Nice school.

Actually the 语言学院 I mentioned isn't some sort of local language school. It is quite famous now. It is located in 五道口 in Beijing, Haidian. It's like that the area with a 10-mile radius from the 语言学院 is a special economic zone, because the school is so popular among international students.
