If you have a debit card or credit card with a Visa logo, a personal identification number is linked to the card. Although you may use it more regularly for debit transactions, a PIN is needed to access cash from a credit card. There are various options available for changing your PIN. If you don't know the PIN, you'll need to contact the credit card issuer or visit the local issuing bank in person.
