We do understand to carry large amount of money can cause stress for some people. In this case the possible option: you pay half of the total amount in cash and then you will pay the rest with credit card.
Why we insist you to pay by cash? On the day of your surgery after the consultation with Dr Rodrigo and before the admission to the clinic you must pay of the price of your surgery. None of the English, or European bank let to credit £ 1500/€1800 or more at any card in a foreigner country for one single purchase regardless what was your previous arrangement with your bank. Even if you ask your bank to lift up you daily limit for one day they very reluctant to do so.
As our previous experiences show: to pay such a large about of money with debit card is not possible as a - one single purchases - either, regardless you have this amount of money on your card or not. The amount what you can withdraw from your debit card from an ATM machine is also limited,- HUF300000 ~ GBP1000/€1200 per day.
If you will discover only one hours before the surgery, your bank don’t let us to withdraw the money from your card or cards you have simply not enough time to make any arrangements with your bank to let us proceed with payment. This will causes stress for you and for us as well because your surgery will be terminated.
