Mine is an International Dollar Card, so the rates are displayed in USD with the 3% Foreign Transaction Fee broken out (and excluded from the figures below).
For transactions processed 4 March the USD/GBP rate is .706, the USD/EUR rate is .913 . (We are accustomed to seeing the rates displayed the other way around 1.416 and 1.095 )
