Official PREPAID VISA thread

[wonderwes]

I said this in another thread but this reloadable visa is probably the better alternative.

anybody heard about this one? i have used the gift 2 go ones twice, but it seesm you can ACH to this one, with a 2500 limit....anyone?

Just like to add to this thread that I am retarded.

Just bought a $1700 AAPP reloadable Visa card only to find out that 2 of the 3 sites I intended to deposit to (both futurebets) aren't aware of this option and block all USA customers from trying to make ANY CC transactions whatsoever. I hope my email to them helps, otherwise I'll be paying for gas and meals with this damn card for months [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The Giftcards.com Virtual Visa option is back. Giftcards.com support claimed that they temporarily removed the product due to being frauded, but now that it has returned, the VV fee is $4.00 up from $2.00, and the max limit is now $250 down from $500. They must have become wise to the influx of online gamers looking for deposit options.

You know, I thought the exact same thing. They knew exactly what they were doing when they lowered the limits and raised the fee. O well, it's better than nothing I guess.

I tried to purchase a virutal visa from giftcards.com and after it processing all yesterday I get an email today saying:
"It has been 14 days since you purchased the $ GiftCards.com™ VirtualGift Account for and it has not yet been activated. Our policy is to cancel the order and refund the full purchase price of the VirtualGift Account to the original purchasing credit card if it remains unclaimed by the recipient after 14 days. Email reminders were sent to to encourage retrieval of the gift, but it was never claimed."

Obviously it has not been 14 days, and I have seen others post this same problem, so I have no idea how good this option really is.

just picked up a Visa Gift Card (from IDT it looks like), at Walgreens...was $5.95 card charge for $100. Loaded it onto Stars w/o any issues...The packaging is yellow, and says "one card. All of your favorite places." on it...and has a small IDT logo in the bottom left. I took a picture with my camera, but cant seem to find a cord to show what it looks like.
