• Toll in Italy

My Bunq card is accepted by all toll-machines in Italy up to now. In case of somebody at the desk, i handover my toll ticket and Bunq card. Then the Bunq card is refused and i have to pay cash.


Strange!!!!

      The weird thing is: yesterday I tried first with my bunq card. It would not go through. Then I tried my ING card, also a simple debit Maestro card, and that worked without issue.

      So the bunq version simply is handled differently from other banks!

        @Mark-Aquamarine-Shark#29482 Could have different reasons. bunq's extra layer of card security settings (dodgy payments/magnet stripe enabled), country whitelisting, or maybe the terminal is "offline".

          @Ronald-Maroon-Panther#29521 What about the single selection of European Union ? That is the default setting

            I have a toll badge, so no need to pay at the terminals (awesome device by the way:

              @Mike#29538 Perhaps you’ve enabled the magnet stripe?

                @Mike#29538 Thanks for the link. I didn’t know that was possible.

                  @Xander#30368 If you need it fast, you can also buy it at the ANWB in the Netherlands. 👍🏼

                    To let you all know, the MasterCard worked perfectly at the Italian tollbooths (I choose the one with the sign Carte). In one occasion it took a few days for the transaction to be visible in Bunq (strange?!), the others were listed very fast (don’t know if it was instantaneously or within some hours)
