I leave for my trip on Monday morning, and I just remembered that I read that in Europe, a 5 digit pin code will not work. Lucky me, I HAVE a 5 digit pin number. Is it every ATM in Europe that has to have 4 digits or just certain ones? I called my bank before the drive thru closed today, and the banker said that she had never heard of a limit on a PIN number, especially since it is just a Visa. I KNOW that I read it somewhere on this site that it has to be 4 digits.

As if I needed this stress right now!!!!!!
