Sorry if this has been discussed, but I dont find it through a Forum search. When my private island fees hit my credit card it shows up as "LINDEN LAB HOOFDDORP NETHERLAND". But when I buy Linden that entry shows up as "LINDEN LAB - SECOND 800-860-6990 CA ". What the heck is the "LINDEN LAB HOOFDDORP NETHERLAND" entry supposed to mean. Is Linden Lab banking from the Netherlands? Has anyone else noticed this?

Thanks in advance...Cazzj

Interresting, in a other thread people mentioned that they got billed from Ireland and England. Wonder how that works.

It's called Currency Leveling.
Don't worry too much about it.

Thanks for all the great feedback everyone! I know I should contact LL for the "Official" explanation, I just wanted to get feedback from other residents to see if this is a common thing. Hmmm....even Ireland and England? Interesting. Currency Leveling...okay..thanks Burke, I'll look that up.

Thanks again ya'll. Cheers!

Yep, my billing also shows up as coming from the Netherlands.


San Francisco, Amsterdam. Both the same, no?
