Smile Costco Membership

Hi,

I will be shortly moving to SoCal hopefully.
I was wondering whether my Trade membership here in the UK will be valid and work without any problems in USA.

Thanks

Costco membership is valid worldwide, I know that. Your business privileges should transfer and you should be able to use the same card. I'm sure you only need to go into a Costco in the US to change your address when the time comes.

If you have specific questions, Costco in the US have a form you can use to submit them at https://ems02071lb.egain.net/system/...LATION_REQUEST

Yup, we had no issues taking our UK cards and getting the membership switched over to a US one. Although I prefer Sams club so we've let the Costco one lapse now.

When I use my US card in Edinburgh there must be some sort of flag since they need to go check it in some manner...anyone have that experience?

Yes, it will work. In fact, the computers in Costco are actually unable to check whether your UK membership is valid or not, so it just automatically says it is! I go there all the time and use my UK card.
