Just back. Was using BEA Flyer World for 9X. In all cases, asked for MOP billing. Got three slips:
1. Altira (acquirer: BNU). The Mark[x] Transaction Currency type. The waitress already advised in advance for me to mark MOP if I wanted that. I frowned, marked X against MOP, signed it ***but asked for a reprint slip***. She satisfactorily produced a no-verbage MOP-only ***** REPRINT! ***** slip. Very good
BEA sent me a SMS, stating a HKD amount @0.996 of my MOP bill was held, but I'm getting a bit more relaxed about held amounts now as discussions here indicate terminals will hold the DCC amount even if the local currency amount is eventually posted.
2. Grand Lisboa (acquirer: BoC): asked for MOP, got MOP without having to tick anything. The BEA SMS came out as MOP. Maybe Dr Ho made sure no DCC occurs in his premises.
3. City of Dreams (acquirer unknown): asked for MOP, got MOP without having to tick anything. The BEA SMS came out as HKD @0.996 though
