I understand the nightmare of trying to open a bank account in Brazil, so let's not go there/lol.
What I need to know is how does one go about replacing a expired debit or credit card from the USA,now before the anwsers start flying, here is my predictiament .
I currently live in Alaska, I am with a credit union, we have no banks of a national status, we have Key Bank and the rest are locally owned.
My question is if my credit union will ship the new cards to Brazil what is the best and safest method. Now I will be moving to Beautiful Belem hopefully no later than June 2016.
I have seen info on Citbank,TD, HSBC and others yet we have no affiliates in the state of Alaska (sorry folks).
I was up north in Belem for 3 months during the non rainy season and the only problem was one of the stores which I will not name challenged my card ( glad I had only a week before I left and my credit card was still working/lol).
If anyone has first hand knowledge of my concern please chime in as I am exhausted and suffering from information overload and trying to keep it simple.
I am not concerned with fee's or limits. I just need precise information on the best way to have access to my Dinero.
Thanks to the group for the help in advance
