Re: Does Any Nigerian Bank Offer Maestro Cards? by kazey(m): 6:30pm On May 29, 2006

@Kazey

No the do not.Not here in the US. Maestro is mainly a European thing.

Dude

I am looking at my MBNA card, and it is strictly MC. It does not have anything to do with the state one is in. I have had many MC's in my life, none had a maestro logo. Dude it is not an American thing. MC,Visa,Discover,Amex are the big four. Then there are smaller cards! Ask someone else.

HMM? Can you please quote where I said it was an american thing? What I said was Maestro is available in the USA, and thats that.
Re: Does Any Nigerian Bank Offer Maestro Cards? by IAH(f): 12:47am On May 30, 2006
Actually I also thought Maestro and Solo were 4 UK only because I've got a Maestro/solo card and they don't accept it on all the US sites I've tried. Don't know sha.
Re: Does Any Nigerian Bank Offer Maestro Cards? by kazey(m): 1:14am On May 30, 2006
Maestro cards are not accepted online, they are meant for atms smiley
Re: Does Any Nigerian Bank Offer Maestro Cards? by OldGlory1(m): 1:15am On May 30, 2006
Kazey

It is not available in the US, for US consumers. Those locations are for tourist that come in with the Maestro cards. I have never seen it at any ATM here, even in the Airports. But again there is no where i know of, that i can go apply for a Maestro card in the US. Maybe i have not looked hard enough. Where are you Kazey?

Stop arguing smiley http://www.maestrocard.com/cgi-bin/wheretouse.cgi?country=102&Select+a+country.x=72&Select+a+country.y=8&region=02

Just curious? Are u saying mastercard is not issued in the USA?
Re: Does Any Nigerian Bank Offer Maestro Cards? by OldGlory1(m): 11:11am On May 30, 2006
Of course Mastercard is Issued here,but it is not called Maestro.I guess it is called Maestro in Europe, and MC in the US.
Re: Does Any Nigerian Bank Offer Maestro Cards? by k9(m): 11:13pm On Jun 27, 2006
Intercontinental back gives u a mastercard, i got mine from them.
Re: Does Any Nigerian Bank Offer Maestro Cards? by nferyn(m): 11:27pm On Jun 27, 2006
Maestro is the common standard applied for debit cards in Europe. Maestro is part of the Mastercard brand and that's where the connection with the US comes from. If I'm not mistaken, all other debit cards will soon be phased out in the Eurozone in favor of Maestro. Maestro can already be used for online payments in Belgium.

Maestro is for debit cards, [b]not [/b]for credit cards
Re: Does Any Nigerian Bank Offer Maestro Cards? by samm(m): 8:27pm On Jun 28, 2006
Maestro does work in the USA usually as a cash dispensing card (ATM USE). However I have used it in some gas stations years back. THis should settle your arguments.

http://www.maestrocard.com/questions/faqs/

Maestro is a member of the MasterCard/Maestro/Cirrus ATM network, which is the largest in the world, giving you immediate access to cash wherever you go. To locate an ATM in a particular place, try our ATM Locator, or, within the United States and Canada, call 1-800-4Cirrus (1-800-424-7787). Outside the United States and Canada, contact your financial institution.
