    HOLD ON, Cap!

    Living in "Down Underland", a 'phone call' to Findlay won't really help too much.

    Findlay is a smaller city, not too close to an International Border ... there's not
    much 'Foreign Tourist Trade' in Findlay - therefor the local banks will NOT process "foreign country" checks without adding horrendous processing fees which can total more than the face amount of the check! Small local businesses (like the Vet Clinic) are just not able to jump through the hoops to find a way to process a check their bank won't accept or cash.

    On top of that, I'm not sure an Australian Check could even be processed by "Check by Phone".

    I'd suggest you seriously consider joining PayPal - they've got some of the least expensive
    "fees" to exchange currency to USA Dollars, and it would be an easy transaction for you and Amy.

    Australian Credit Card ??

    I honestly do not know if an Aussie CC will "spend" in the USA.

    Maybe call your local Aussie Bank, or better yet, the CC Company -
    and just ASK if their card is easily accepted and processed by a USA company.

    I once tried to phone buy something from a Canadian firm, using my USA Visa card -
    and they said NO, they did not accept "USA Cards".

    I don't think I ever tried again - so I can't really answer the question.

    But with PayPal you wouldn't need to make an Overseas phone call!

    I've been buying Revolution for my cats from a place in Calgary, Alberta - for more than a year. I have a USA credit card, order from Calgary, and the Revolution is shipped from Australia. They have always accepted the USA CC.

    Thanks Phred - I buy on Amazon, so might be able to.
    But I think I may as well set up PayPal - there are many times I could have used it.

    Grace - thanks too :-)

    Thanks for the info, Phred. Blanchard Valley was our vet clinic in Findlay, too, and they are such sweet people there. I know they'll do whatever they can to help Snoopy.

    Phred...I write this from outside the US. As it is a short business trip I have not even bothered to get local currency. Everythings goes on my US mastercard!
