I recently bought an SQ ticket, SFO-SIN, and the transaction was done through their worldwide reservation centre(ICC) and in US dollars. Furthermore, the ticket was issued from the LAX office. However when I checked my bill I found that the transaction even though it was in USD was billed to the headquarters in Singapore resulting in me getting hit by a foreign transaction point of sale charge of 2.5% because the country code for the transaction ID was listed as SIN.
After tons of calls, i manage to get the charge waived but i found it weird that the bill for the ticket was sent to the office in SIN even though it was issued in the USA. Anybody had any experience with this and how to avoid it in future?
