[quote=GRIZ326,356274]Your ATM bank card (debit card) will work fine at the Bank of China and a number of other banks to withdraw cash. Your ATM bank card will not work for *purchases*. USD doesn't spend in China, it must be converted to RMB. Before you go, call your bank and your credit card companies to alert them to be in China between this date and that date. If you do not do that all of your plastic will be hot carded after 2 or 3 transactions and you will be STUCK without money or credit. It happened to me. [mood5] That's why I always have a substantial amount of reserve cash in my moneybelt when traveling. [mood6] I do wear a moneybelt, but I actually divide my reserve between several hiding spots. OH...traveler's checks are a royal PIA to cash so I do not carry them.[/quote]
