I traveled through Schipol last January. My Visa debit card (with PIN) worked at the human counter with the "PIN Cards Only" sign. It was later refused at a different station, but I think that was a matter of an untrained attendant more than a technology failure. (He expected a chip.)

And cash, of course. Note that on http://www.ietf78.nl/ it says that the railway ticket machines accept cash, but that's only barely true: only some of them do, and then only in the form of coins. > _______________________________________________ > Ietf mailing list > Ietf@xxxxxxxx > https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf _______________________________________________ Ietf mailing list Ietf@xxxxxxxx https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/ietf
