Advice for using credit cards abroad

  • preferably bring two different cards, e.g. one Visa card and one Mastercard or other credit card

  • check your balance before travelling

  • when withdrawing cash, make sure no-one sees you entering your pin code and beware of people trying to be helpful

  • always check that the total sum is completed and correct before signing a sales invoice. Retain all receipts.

  • always check that the amount is in the correct currency. There are substantial differences between e.g. EURO and GBP.

  • block lost/stolen cards as soon as possible, also if they are swallowed by ATMs.
