Bank Card Help

Hey everyone.

I'm going to China in 2 weeks and need to get this sorted out with my bank. They seem to know very little about my situation (how professional)

Can I use a Canadian issue debit card in China to withdraw money from a machine or bank? I know that in the united states, you need a 5 digit pin, in Canada we have 4 digit. When I was in france it was possible, but I needed to go from my cheque account.

I'm with HSBC.

Thanks.

I'm with HSBC.
That can be a problem -- six months of unwarranted payment defaults along with an interest rate hike charged upon their fraudulent charges (causing problems with other accounts). A sort through the six months worth of money orders to everyone and a $12 charge for each front/back copy of received money orders from the issuer. All applicable six months worth identified as sent to HSBC were cashed with their stamp as "Cannot be applied to account" -- why? No explanation... and why cash it rather than send it back if it couldn't be applied, extortionists?
That account is now paid off and cancelled.
Better luck with them than had I...

Are their dairy cows escaping south? Now Canada will have to put up new fences along our northern border to defer immigration.

Your bank people are supposed to know all.  If you're not getting proper answers from whoever you talk to, call them back and you'll probably get another person, maybe that person can give you some straight answers.  Or go online and contact their customer service.
