Well, I'm going back to the Great White North for a little while and was wondering if anyone has had any success/failure stories using cards from the above banks?
My Christmas depends on you. |

did you get it recently say in the last 6 months? I ask because my bank (Woori) said my pay comes from a transfer from Hana Bank where they do their payroll. It would make my life much easier since they are also outside my univs front gate. Every time I go to send money from Woori its a major production involving 3 people and an hour of my time |

| no, it wasn't that recent (two years ago) but i can't imagine it's changed. i just walked in a couple days before my trip, told them i was going away, and they set me up. I probably had my normal bank card and bank account book and ID |

| I used my BC card by nonghyup in Hong Kong over Chusok. It is the debit card not cash card. There are a few versions of the BC card, not all do the international ATM. |

| I used my Nonghyup Intl card in China back in August/September. No problems. Before I go to the States in February, however, I plan to transfer as much cash as possible just in case. |
