I had the most problem in China, particularly at Restaurants. In India I had problem at Marriott hotel restaurant, even though I had no problem at the hotel checkin/checkout. Not sure what the issue is. But I did see Australians and Germans had no problem. I am thus assuming it is a Chip and Pin issue not a network problem. Armed with an UNFCU credit card, I will know what the issue is.
