USING THE ATM'S IN FRANCE...HELP!!!
When using the ATM's in France I'm told to look for Carte Bleu (for VISA) or PLUS (for my other bank card). What are the French words for Chequing and savings? Any other vocab I need to know so I'm not stumped and can't get money out?

Most ATM machines will let you select English for your transactions so you should have no problem. I don't believe you are able to choose between checking or savings so you might want to make arrangements before leaving for France.

You will have no trouble finding ATM's in Paris. They are everywhere. Check to see if your bank charges for using them so you can deduct the charges from your accout - our credit union doesn't charge.<BR><BR>Regarding the PIN # -- make sure that you use numbers, not letters, as they may be different on their key pads. We have only a four digit number and that has never been a problem, any where, including Tanzania. Also, be aware of your bank withdrawl limit per day.
