Do you remember which ATMs donāt accept Monzo cards so people can look out for them next time?
I had problems getting it accepted in stores when I visited last year since they either didnāt take card or had an error message, but I used it at all ATMs (even in non-touristy areas) without any issue so I didnāt think to make a note about it.
Thatās odd, I stayed in the city centre in Split last year and there were lots of ATMs about for tourists. All of them worked fine without any charges! Wonder if there have been any changes in acceptance for foreign cards there.
so letās get this straight please I am travelling to Zagreb in February if I use Monzo I donāt pay no charges for using the card to Monzoā¦ do I pay charges to mastercard?
In Split at the moment. No problem with paying with card (occasionally need to remind them that I want to pay in Krona). But 80% of ATMs request a fee of 29.5 kr (less than 4 pounds) if you do not use the ATMās conversion rate (which is horrible). 10% of ATMs charge 16 krona (about 2 pounds). 10% of ATMs are free - found my free one near the bus station from Zagrebacka banka
Hi. I am off to Dubrovnik next week and will be trying to use my new Monzo. I am a little nervous about using it butā¦ any tips? Is it widely accepted, is it easy to use? Any advice appreciated. Cheers
Recently went to Rabac in Croatia. Monzo card accepted in various shops. Didnāt try the ATM as there wasnāt a need to. However the Monzo card was rejected on Norwegian Airlines flight as a means of payment.
iām currently on a road trip through europe, currently in Croatia and havenāt had any issues anywhere cash or purchases.
also been absolutely fine in France, Belgium, Germany, Czech republic, Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria & Slovenia so far.
although i have now hit my free cash limit so moved onto a starling card for cash, but still buying everything on monzo, which is 95% of stuff.
and yes Croatia is the only place Iāve been charged for cash withdrawls 29.5HRK which is current;y Ā£3,69, but still multiple times cheaper than accepting their crappy exchange rate. havenāt worked out which machines are free or not. havenāt been charged in any other country yet though.
I have used Monzo in Croatia a few times, most recently Split in September.
Monzo works absolutely fine out there, no issues.
Most places accept card paymets and they do use contactless in most places, however when you tap your card the machine asks for your pin also.
Prices for eating out are generally very good! Especially if you stay off of the tourist areas.
Where in Croatia are you going?
Beautiful country! Hope you have a great time!
