I just got a payment through on my credit card that was converted for Islandic Krona. The amount I paid was £4.33. Looking at the payee, it's a business in Sandigerdi, which is a small Icelandic town we visited for a few hours in September.
Given that it's been about 6 months since I was there, I thought I'd better check with the card fraud people about this - but after some debate, they decided it was a real payment that had somehow 'got stuck'.
On the plus side, I'm pretty sure the only thing I bought in Sandigerdi was a decent sized meal for 2 people (in an Icelandic Wooden Cafe), so I feel I've done well getting it for £4.33 with 6 months free credit!

But - how on earth can you get a meal for two in Iceland for £4.33? You can't get a bag of crisps for two in Iceland for £4.33!!!
But I'm wondering if I actually paid in 2 lots and this was a dessert. Even then, it's not bad!
