What margaritagirl said Saying that, it does seem like some of their loaded FX rates might be entirely wrong, which might be one reason why those of us “internationals” who stay at properties not billing in USD seem to have a lot more problems than people who stay “domestic”. Ultimately as guests it’s impossible for us to back it out, as we can never tell if points are wrong because of the source amount or the FX rate applied.
