Currently these transactions are being categorised under "Personal", so no real insights there...In the spirit of discretion I'd rather not send a Secure Message asking what a particular MCC code is for large, recurring transactions...

Thanks.

Why not make a very small (say $20) transaction and wait for the bill to arrive. Although you are going to have to wait a billing cycle for your answer, if the result is unfavorable, it will not cost you much to have found out.

It would also be much appreciated if you could provide more detail as to what you are trying to find the MCC code for because someone may have already done the suggested deed and can provide you with a ready answer.
