I gave them my Visa and V-Pay card, and only one of the patrol stations took it.
Everyone else willing to take my non Netherland card were places who would also take cash, like mcdonalds.
There seemed to have been a certain kind of regional card which i did not have.
edit: dont take me wrong, i should have looked up the local payment procedure before going there, I was just extremely surprised as this happened to me directly across the border inside the EU.
- bathory 8y agoV-Pay should be accepted by any shop in NL. I am not sure where the issue comes from, as there is no card, specific to the region. In NL maestro/v-pay cards are accepted 100% of the time, because those cards are issued by all banks there.
- cf498 8y agoI tried it, maybe it was the language barrier but I had shops who simply send me away. I had a longer conversation with the cashier in the SPAR shop on the science center campus about it who told me my v-pay card was the wrong one and cash was not an option. It worked out in the big shopping center in Almere where people also took cash.
