Will German bank accounts and credit cards work in the event of war?
So, can you use your bank account and credit cards normally during a war? And what if bank headquarters are attacked? Either through cyberattacks or the data centers are damaged with weapons?
when there are war you have quite different problems, first the food markets are bought empty and plundered. So what did we have much more extreme in the pandemic?
You don’t use cash or credit card. Cash in the house is also no option if the is bombarded. Therefore, exchange items become interesting.
I can buy food in Australia if I’m there.
You live there or do you mean when you’re on vacation in that time?
It doesn’t matter for the use of the credit card.
This always depends on where the war is and who fights against whom.
Germany is attacked or the country in which the computer systems stand for the account.
Germany is big…
You asked… And I still don’t know what mysterious “they” take away the money in war.
That’s enough. Just leave it.
Define “you”…
It can also be that they simply take away money because everyone in the crisis is the next.
Really? Do you seriously believe that “the decisive system systems” of each bank are centrally assembled in one place?
Then why is it where the war takes place?
There’s no place.
I’ve written where they’ve got decisive systems.
If IT fails, of course nothing will happen. Also not in Australia.
Because here who write that IT cannot fail because it is not bound to a place.
In most cases, the IT infrastructure is built redundant, so that individual damage can still be brought about.
From a certain degree of damage and/or lack of personnel, this does not help anymore.
Maybe there’s nothing to buy in the war anyway, so the best card doesn’t help you…
Depends on where the fights are going.
Why?
Well, if you shoot the bank in the city or the place, you won’t be able to do any banking business.
If there’s war, it’ll be set.
Use online banking or credit card in Australia.
Hopefully we’ll never find out.
