How do you get the pin for the CCC (and why is it necessary)?

Many times overseas they will ask for your PIN. Cabs in Paris usually want it. Call the number on the back of the company card to reset it.

Sounds like a lot of trouble but actually easy enough as long as you don't have huge bags. The total cost was 9.5 euros paid with the new company credit card with pin at the kiosk. Total time about 50 minutes.
You don't have to transfer to the Metro at Gare du Nord. The RER goes to Châtelet Les Halles and you can walk to Line 14 there.
My company credit card doesn't have a pin...when did we get new ones with a pin?

I did call the number on the back of the card...a recording says "the card I have doesn't have the ability to get cash and therefore I don't have a pin. If I have doubts call my company"...or words to that effect

You might want try again. As I recall, it was all automated. Maybe you didn't go the right direction when prompted. If all else fails, get a humanoid to answer.

Are you guys talking about a "chip and PIN card," or just a PIN for debits? I know the company started issuing chip and PIN cards, but not everyone has one of those yet.

I didn't realize everyone does not have a new card with the gold square on the front, "chip and pin". I have had this card for at least two years I think.

When I first received my chip'n'pin card, I did the setup for the PIN as instructed. But the first time I tried to use it in the CDG RER kiosk it rejected my PIN . I tried it 3 times because I knew I had the right PIN. . . funny thing is that it rejected me 3 times and then processed the sale anyway after the 3rd rejection . . . so what's the point of the PIN ?

Anyway, called the number on the back of the card and did the reset thing (it's option 4) and the next time in Paris the PIN worked. The Capt I was with got rejected for no PIN, but the sale went thru again, after the 3rd rejection
