It looks like neteller issues the new card country by country, and is doing a backlog of requests.

I wonder which country is first ?

I am from the Netherlands, no mail about the card for me yet.

As a cardholder of the original NETELLER Card, you will be amongst the first to receive the new Altair Prepaid MasterCard® card, brought to you in partnership with Altair Financial Services.* This new card will replace the original Cirrus network NETELLER Card, which was retired on May 3rd, 2007.

Your new Altair Prepaid MasterCard card will arrive soon

We will start our new Prepaid Card distribution in a few days. You can expect your card to arrive in your mailbox in the coming weeks, followed by a Personal Identification Number (PIN) a few days later. This card will carry the “Altair Financial Services” brand on it as they are our card services partner.

Once you receive your card and PIN, follow the simple activation steps provided in your card envelope. Also, as a valued member, we have pre-loaded your card with £5/€7.50/$10 USD to cover the activation fee.
