prepaid credit cards

[ben1212]

I have a question about paying for premium membership, if I want to buy a 25 dollar prepaid mastercard, do I really get 25 dollars or is their any hidden activation fees or stuff that I need to know so I dont waste my money and dont end up getting what I want. Also which prepaid credit card would you recommend that is very common and available everywhere?

thanks

it depends on the hidden charges your card charges. Nothing to do with CC on that end. sorry.

fees charged by the retailer may apply. Check with your local participating merchant to find out.

I don't have a credit card, and my parents refuse to buy anything online. They're afraid of the internet, or people stealing their identity...etc. So I had to do something. Anyway, I'd recomend an American Express Pre-Paid card. From my experience, it was the easiest.

nettellar is very easy to use and has a minimal charge to deal with.

Visa debit card/gift card buy it from your bank thats what I did

Out of curiosity. How have you made it to age 26 without a credit card?

quite well actually.
i used paypal untill my account there got hacked and they took 1200 euro,- i got that back, but not my confidence in them.
i also use iDeal a dutch online paymentsystem.
finally i got a creditcard, but only for CC..... cant do without cc, but up to that time, could do without a creditcard
