i dont have a visa however i want to now if it is possible, and if there is a bank in or nearby laganas which accepts solo cash cards, so that i can withdraw my money whilst on holiday?
Banks (hole in wall machines) in Solomos Square Zante Town take all normal debit cards and credit cards. On screen menu can be selected easily in English. If you need personal banking service (in the bank) take your passport as well for I.D. and go it in the morning as they close in the afternoon. There are no banks or machines in Argassi, but most shops and tavernas take "cards" as payment. A few shops will give cash against cards but charge around 8% sevice charge. But by the time you have paid taxi fare return to Zante town, may be worth while if you are desperate for cash!
Don't try using the bank to change money on Monday morninngs - everyone comes in to deposit the cash takings from the weekend! Wads of banknotes to be counted!
Sam - Machines will take Visa, Mastercard, Plus, Cirrus, Dias and some others. This is from the machine in Laganas. Will see if there are any different ones in town.
Sam - not sure about this. Definately accepts all cards with a Visa or Mastercard symbol. I'll be in resort from Sunday 20th May, so i'll let you know then if no one else has posted.
if can use plus cashpoint card at bank?
