Do you mean debit cards? You have to make sure it's organised at your end, before you leave Australia. And make sure the ATM you use has the card (eg Cirrus) listed on it's facia. I work in a bank and we often have Australians come in complaining that their debit cards are not working and they end up having to phone home and arranging something they could have done before they left Australia.

So you have a debit card that can access your credit card?? Do you have to have a credit balance in your credit card for that to work? Does it have the two circles of "Maestro" or "Cirrus" . You really need to ask at your bank.
