Revolut

Just Curious. So in this case, they will convert the full 10,500 yen from SGD balance?

Since 10,500 yen is within 500 SGD

I'm not sure. Asking the experts here

Revolut will deduct the full amount from SGD if there is enough money in SGD to cover the transaction. Even if you have more than enough in both currencies, Revolut would reject the transaction if SGD and JPY alone are not enough to cover it.

So revolut will try to deduct full amount of the local currency first. If that's not enough, will try to convert the full amount from SGD. If neither is enough, transaction won't go through

Is this summary correct?

no auto conversion of partial amount

Is this summary correct?

Yes, this is correct. It happened to me twice recently.

For instance, if the transaction is USD550 and you have USD500 and SGD500, Revolut will reject the transaction.
Before the transaction can be completed, you must convert SGD to USD.

Now only reason to keep Grab card is the Amex topup. If they disable Amex topup, I am going to cut the card into 2 and throw into the dustbin.

[wirelesslink]

Yes. Same here. If Grab blocks AMEX top-up, I am cutting it too.

Today I tried to top up revolut by using CC from DBS, UOB, and trust bank (both visa and master). All failed.

It seems only able to top up by using bank account.

I managed to using my cimb credit card.

 

[louisw]

It is still able to top up the Youtrip card via CC. I guess it is because Youtrip is a local company and Revolut is a British company?

Another guessing. It is not allowed to transfer money from Youtrip. But revolut is able to do it. So if you top up then transfer money to your bank account, it is like a cash advance. So the top up is blocked by banks.
