Dream holiday, shattered calm: When the bank card disappears abroad

Answer

What should travellers in Mallorca check before relying on one bank card?

Before travelling, it helps to read the rules for card blocking, replacement cards and international hotline access. Save the bank’s contact details offline, and if possible carry a second card from a different provider. That way, one incident does not immediately turn into a full travel problem.
