James, if I were to try to use a LLoyds TSB savings account card in the Phils it would not work. I mean a basic ATM card that needs a local banking system that recognises the card, no chance.Originally Posted by James Hubbard
Yes, it will work, but the cost for transacting here is determined by BDO, not by the UK banks. So if you want to find out the transaction charges you'll need to contact BDO.
Other than that, yes you can use it here to withdraw money
The only cards that have any chance of working internationally are those that have Visa, Mastercard or some other international affiliation symbol on them, a lot of Philippine local bank cards won't have this. Ana's Metrobank Debit card would not work in the UK for example.
Ross you need to check what kind of Debit card you have, if it has a Visa or Mastercard symbol on the card then give it a go, there will be fees and it won't be cheap :(
Good luck!
