Rovermatt Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 I'm going to the US at the end of the month and was wondering if anyone on this great highway of information could answer me the question? I have a Master Card also but I'm keen to have as many payment options as possible. I always find the debit option preferable to the credit card. Thanking you in advance.

Bazzanotsogreat Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Yes ,ive used it twice in the US, im thinking you have a maestro cirrus debit card? The cirrus sign is on most ATM & retail outlets in the US and the card can be used in most major banks.
Rovermatt Posted June 3, 2008 Author Posted June 3, 2008 As far as I know it's a simple Maestro Card from Ulster Bank. What's cirrus?
Bazzanotsogreat Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 As far as I know it's a simple Maestro Card from Ulster Bank. What's cirrus? Cirrus is an inter-banking network which is linked to Maestro; it used more in the states tahnin Europe for example. As for your Ulster card im pretty sure it will be dual Maestro & cirrus as Ulster is part of the RBS group.
brian_gallagher85 Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 Cirrus should be on it Matt, it is on the Ulster bank one's here.

stuwilky Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 Matt, a word of advice, check how much your bank will load each transaction for using it overseas. It can often add between 2 and 5% onto the purchase - and there are often cheaper options available. Same applies for credit cards as well. Banks are crafty buggers, with a bit of thought you can beat them.
RoversFanUSA Posted June 11, 2008 Posted June 11, 2008 NYC. I'll be staying with my uncle in Hoboken NJ. Well i hope you have a good time out there in NYC. If you got the time try and make it to California some time. Ill be more then happy to show you around.
Rovermatt Posted June 13, 2008 Author Posted June 13, 2008 Well i hope you have a good time out there in NYC. If you got the time try and make it to California some time. Ill be more then happy to show you around. I hope to at some point. A load of my brother's mates went to Orange County last summer. They said you've never seen women like it.
American Posted June 13, 2008 Posted June 13, 2008 Come to Utah County - makes me think that maybe God is Mormon. Met a girl from Utah County while visiting Lux a couple weeks ago. Had to explain to the guys that while she might be a 10 to them, she's just a 7 or 8 in Utah County. Unfortunately, there isn't much else here!
RoversFanUSA Posted June 14, 2008 Posted June 14, 2008 I hope to at some point. A load of my brother's mates went to Orange County last summer. They said you've never seen women like it. I have to agree! The women out here are Smoking HOT! Its funny because when i was out there (UK) last year i noticed a bunch of chicks that looked like they were OC girls but only a 6 or 7 on the hot meter. Pretty disapointing . Just lemmi know when your on your way out this way and ill show you what they were talking about.
Rovermatt Posted June 15, 2008 Author Posted June 15, 2008 You do get some tasty girls on this side of the water but it's simply not on the same scale as the US.
ultrablue Posted June 16, 2008 Posted June 16, 2008 You do get some tasty girls on this side of the water but it's simply not on the same scale as the US. There are a load of stunners out there, but their banter is terrible! All daddy's girls who tell you to "shat aaaap!" at anything you say! You'll be bored stiff in a few minutes (insert punch line here )

brian_gallagher85 Posted June 17, 2008 Posted June 17, 2008 I wonder if Matt has enquired as to wether they accept Maestro cards or not?
