Watch out! I also live in Canada, and a close friend of mine while travelling was frozen out of his accounts because there were no banks that could handle 6 digit pins there.

For that reason I recommend having a 4 digit pin.

Where's "there"? (Presumably not Canada?)

I couldn't use a 6 digit pin in Italy. Some ATMs in London,UK didn't like it either.

Singapore it's mandatory for a 6 digit pin so have no idea if a 4 digit pin will work, anybody been there?
