What kind of brand should that be? VISA should be VISA, there
is no difference. There can be some merchants though that limit
the acceptance of VISA cards to a certain country. I made this
experience in Japan, for example, when buying from Yahoo Japan
which accepts Japanese VISA cards only.

Pretty sure that's the standard VISA card.

That might be because these banks did not support VISA at all.
I have been to banks in Japan which would take cards from their
own customers only, but I just got cash from 7-11's ATMs.

Just find an ATM with the VISA logo.
