It depends on what £ limit your bank has put on your card.

I was drawing 1000 TL at a time last week which was below the £250 limit on my card. (N & P Card)

No. In Turkey is a limit for foreign cards. I think TL 1.000 (depends on Turkish bank / ATM)

In Germany you have a limit per day / ATM. € 1.000

We have drawn £400.00 from the A.T.M's just a couple of weeks ago.  In fact we have two cards for the same joint account and we bought drew £400.00 each.

I hoped someone would answer TL 2.000 or more, because TL 1.000 is a rather small sum.

Again I think you need to ask your own bank to raise the limit for you

We always have bills to pay so need to be able to draw enough money to cover them.  As Scunner says, just ask your Bank to raise your limit.

I did it. They told me it depends on the Turkish bank / ATM
Reason: usually - if you are employed - your limit is 2-3 monthly salaries.
In Germany we don't use debit cards as in UK.

Your bank can increase your sterling limit on request. At HSBC I always used to draw £350. However I think the 1,000tl limit is set by the Turkish ATM operators.

Kenkay, St. Pauli isn't British, so rules about Sterling limits don't apply to them.
