Lloyds Debit Card in Germany

martindora

Hello Guys,

I try to use my lloyds debit card in germany, but its seem some of the place dont accept lloyds debit card.. (it should said the card machines show "Card Number not Valid"... i been using my lloyds debit card in Netherlands, Switzerland etc all working fine, But just Germany some of the places especially Hotel and Petrol Station dont accept our debit card.... its show the same error message (Card Number not Valid) , even they manually input the card number into the card machines, they still show card not valid...


My lloyds debit card number : 475733

That BIN appears to be for RBS (Royal Bank of Scotland) cards, not Lloyds?

OP - Is it a basic account?

ETA - another 2 questions.

Did you tell the bank you were using your card abroad?

Have you rung your bank since it hasn't been working?
(if you ring from a landline, you can reverse the charges through the international operator)

no..its a private banking account with Lloyds...

But my wife debit card (current account with lloyds) its work everywhere in germany...


tried to call lloyds for help few times but they said no reason i tried to use the card at all...

All the BIN checkers that I've looked at say it's issued by RBS so something seems to be amiss.
