It is impossible, at least, it is for Kiwiollars so I assume it's
similar for Austrarubles. I had to change them into yen before I could
take them out (or rather, when I closed my account, since one of the
reasons why I opened it in the first place was the assurance that I
could put any currency into it and extract the money later _in_ _that_
_currency_, without conversion charges).
