    Default NoF10 not fair to Kiwis

    Thanks a lot WSP.

    I went to get my NoF 10 Upgrade and instead of being offered the
    product for $US109.95, you want me to pay $AUD175.95

    Now, when my bank charges my VISA, the first thing they do is convert
    the $AUD to $USD, then they convert it to $NZD, so not only have WSP
    clobbered me, the bank will ALSO extract additional margins from me.

    I want to pay in $USD and just have the one conversion to $NZD.

    Doing it the WSP way works out $USD109.95 becomes $AUD175.95 becomes
    $NZD204.47.

    Doing it MY way $USD109.95 becomes $NZD163.57

    Why should Im pay $NZD40 more than necessary?

    PS - Have been using and paying for NoF since V7 in $USD.

    At least you'll have the pleasure of watching the Brits winning the
    ashes again. Should be good for a few beers and jokes, not to mention
    the occasional punch up.

    I wasn't aware the Ashes Series was being played in NZ; i thought it
    was in Oz.

    And that's the rub, because my IP is from NZ, WSP assume I must use
    $AUD. Well, i don't. Or at least I don't unless i am in Oz.

    Bloody seppos never could read a map, could they?
