In the UK, Ireland, and France I've only found a couple of places that wouldn't take a signature card -- Automated service stations and the Autoroute toll plazas in France and a toy store in Ireland. Everyone else has been ok with a chip+signature card from the US.

Yep, I've had that experience trying to buy petrol in France too. That's the only place I can remember running into a problem with it, actually. Never anywhere in the UK.
