Krakow Trip Report
Money Matters

     We had been told that some of the ATM's in Krakow did not recognise some of the 'chip n pin' cards from the UK. Yes we did have some difficulty using the Machines with our HSBC Maestro cards, but the one inside the Pekao bank on Szpitalna street worked.  Also the ATM on the street opposite the bank worked. (Szpitalna street is just a few minutes walk from Market Square.
    We did take some local currency with us, purchased from Sainsbury's Plc, but at a very poor rate compared with the exchange rate that we got  using our cards at an ATM.
