How can I get a list of which companies accept Mastercard for cash advances? - Overjoyed African American graduate tossing copies of resumes in air after learning news about successfully getting job while sitting in green park with laptop

From statson.org:

Again, in France, almost any bank or cash machine (if you have a 4-digit PIN) can give you a cash advance on Visa (Carte Bleue), but only a few banks (Credit Agricole, Credit Mutuel, and all Post Offices) and cash machines can give you a M-C cash advance.

I've searched Google and Mastercard's website, but I can't find a list of which banks accept Mastercard for cash advances. I'll be travelling in Europe (20 countries) and Duabi. How can I find out which banks or ATM operators will accept Mastercard in a particular country?

Update

Apparently, Cirrus is the interbank network used by Mastercard.

Having visited France more times than I could be bothered counting over the past few years, I've yet to find an ATM that didn't accept my MasterCard Credit Card. They may exist, but the majority of ATMs certainly do allow cash advances (whether it's a true cash advance or a withdrawal against a credit balance). You can search for Mastercard supported ATMs on their website, or using their ATM Hunter mobile app (iPhone or Android).

In-branch cash advances are a different matter altogether. Banks are NOT under any obligation to give a cash advance against a credit card issued by another bank, and although many will do it, they will generally charge you a non-trivial fee for the privileged (far more than the fee to use the ATM will be, if there is one). The only situation I can think of where this would be a viable solution would be if the magnetic strip on your card was to fail. (Hint: always make sure you've got at least 2 cards!)

    Answer 2

    A list of businesses that accept Mastercard will actually be the client list of Mascercard Corp., so there is little chance they make that document available to the public otherwise the first thing VISA or AE would do is to call every single name on that list to onboard them.
