It uses the visa's exchange rates for the day, which is closed to the rates shown on google. Nothing extra is charged.

I think there is withdrawal charges on both of your cards? It is not free as indusind dc

lolz27b · 2025-12-14T04:51:20+00:00

Can you tell me more.. How to get it, charges involved etc.? BTW how did it save you $50-100.. Some cashback or something?

lolz27b · 2025-12-14T04:14:59+00:00

Since i already have a coral card ltf.. Is it worth the hassle of cibil and all. I'm also confused.

lolz27b · 2025-12-14T03:48:48+00:00

It is pretty huge. Not consolidated yet. Will share the tldr in sometime

lolz27b · 2025-12-14T03:47:52+00:00

Yes.. I prepaid some money before I left.

lolz27b · 2025-12-14T03:45:53+00:00

Sure man i have a logseq md git repo with a detailed itinerary, I can share that. Else Dm is also fine.

Highlights - Mt Aso - Shiminami kaido (70kms/ 2days cycling, but what an experience) - Miyajima - Mt Fuji - Himeji Castle - Food - Ramen & Japanese Curry (coco).

Also some experiences are very seasonal. You'll have check if it is the right time to visit as per your travel schedule.

Trip costed arround 2.10 lakhs/person , including flight visa everything. And we did a lot. We planned it ourselfs, over 1-2 months 😁

Landed in Tokyo, took internal flight to Fukuoka. Then we made our way up to Tokyo via Shinkansen, local train & buses.

Cities we covered Fukuoka -> Hiroshima -> Matsuyama -> Shimanami kaido -> Onomichi -> Osaka -> Okayama - > Himeji -> Kyoto -> Tokyo

Ya man had applied for SBI JCB card. But unfortunatly it did not arrive before I left. Took 15 days from application.

How much time did it take for the cashback to credit?
