VAGABONDING AND PREPPING YOUR CREDIT CARDS FOR INTERNATIONAL USE

Prep Your Credit / Debit Cards For International Use


Your Credit / Debit Cards Should be “Primed” Before Departure.

If your credit cards and debit cards have only been used in your local home town then all of a sudden charges start appearing in Bangkok one week then Goa another, those cards may literally stop working – for your security. It varies from bank to bank but many will automatically place a hold on the usability of your debit or credit card. Its a rather small inconvenience and maybe a bit embarrassing but a pain in the ass nonetheless. Just call your financial institutions (banks) prior to departure and tell them your backpacking and they will ease off the international blocking.

    After I switched 18 I understood I desired charge cards to develop credit. After I arrived at the $500 limit on my small first card and also the $2000 limit on my small new card after i discovered that it was harmful to my credit. I hear that as lengthy while you don’t spend over fifty percent from the available balance your credit is going to be fine. Is that this true?
