Took a bit of googling to find a blog post mentioning Skype and "Acquirer Operations".

Evening of March 9 e-mails don't mention how it will appear on the credit card statement:

Maybe Skype is now collecting

Maybe Skype is now collecting money in the US through that outfit in order to help its customers avoid the %^@@#)* 5% "foreign" purchase fees that many of them charge.

Can anyone confirm this? My Skype billings go to a Capital One card (NO/ZERO/ZILCH "foreign" purchase fees).
