Title: Re: cash atm visa Post by: DaisysMum on July 11, 2008, 08:34:22 AM I took sterling and euros when I went in mid June. Glad that I did as the ATM wasn't working for a couple of days at the end of my holiday, my friends had problems along with others, and not everywhere would accept a card as payment. They eventually managed to get some money from one of the travel shops.

A week to go for you.... bet you cant wait. I feel abit the same ---cash, travellers or rely on the ATM etc... Anybody know if the ATM accepts maestro debit card? Stu Title: Re: cash atm visa Post by: Sandy x on July 13, 2008, 11:58:56 PM I'm pretty certain it does....I'm sure my HSBC card is maestro and I've used it there before....but of course there will be a charge.
Title: Re: cash atm visa Post by: Eileen on July 14, 2008, 12:32:13 AM Yes it accepts Maestro cards Stu, that's all I ever use over there.
