    Hi. My boyfriend and I are currently holidaying in Argentina. Both of us bank with BoI and both of us use visa debit. On the first day we were here both of us withdrew cash from an Atm ( santander). Since then neither of us have been able to withdraw cash. As you can imagine this is inconvenient. We have tried a number of atms ( santander, citi, Galicia). We have money in our accounts. Can you please advise what we need to do to access our money?

    Hi Pat,

    Thanks, but I'm pretty sure it's not an issue specific to my account. My boyfriend also tried a Bank of Ireland Visa credit card, with the same result. So, we have tried 3 cards on 3 separate accounts and none will work. A bank of ireland Mastercard worked fine. Can you check if there is a general issue with Bank of Ireland/Visa in Argentina?

    Regards,

    Deedless

    Hi deedless,

    There should be no issue with using a Visa debit or credit card in Argentina. You or your boyfriend will need to contact Banking 365 to get this issue looked into for you specifically.

    Thanks
    Linda
