Hello I have been to Bali many times. You used to be able to use an eftpos card in Bali. Since Jan 2010 can only use a credit card with a chip in it in the ATM machines.eg I have a credit card with a chip in it but it is linked to my savings card account- so I put in my credit card but push 'savings. Yes it is an ANZ card. Worked in Jan 2010. Hope this makes sense. Ask your bank to help you sort it out.
If you try an eftpos card in the ATM machines now it will tell you it is not working. The chip in the credit card is for added security. I also tell my bank when I am travelling OS (and where to) so that my credit card does not get cancelled. This happened to a friend of mine when they were travelling OS somewhere. Cheers. Enjoy your holiday.
