I'm going to New York in March & was wondering if I can use my TSB laser. TSB has yet to issue chip & pin to all its customers, so not sure if this will have any imapct. Any Irish people with answers?

The US does not widely use the chip/pin cards that are in use in most of Europe.
If your card is cobranded with Maestro, then it will be fine here since it should act like a Mastercard, but if you're in doubt, your best bet is to call the bank and ask.

Chip & PIN is virtuallly unheard of in the US, oddly enough.
If the card has a Master Card or Visa logo if should work fine. Be prepared to show ID when you use it; your passport will do fine for that.
