The one with Maestro/Cirrus on it. Are they ok to use in Korea? Mines a Natwest one.

Yes, but not all machines are "Global ATM".

I wasn't able to use my Lloyds TSB card in the ATMs when I arrived, but I can use my debit card in supermarkets to buy groceries.

I've used Barclays Connect direct debit card (visa) in KEB machines several times. Couldn't use it at Woori Bank.

I'm with HSBC, went in and spoke to the manager.... you can use your card, but they normally charge you about �2.50 per withdrawal. I'm going to change my account (still with HSBC) and it will cost me �12 per month, but allows me to have free cash withdrawals.

Hope that helps.
