These thingsare very hit and miss.
I moved to Brazil in 1998, but kept my UK bank account at Nat West.
Every time I tried to use my Visa card in Brazil, it was declined. This despite Natwest having my Brazilian address on their system. I used to call them at least once a week becuase of it, every time I was 'assured' it wouldn't happen again, that they had put a marker on my account saying I lived there.
Odd thing is, I eventually got fed up with it, and moved my account to Barclays. I have never had that card declined, and must have used it in 20 countries.
