Hi SportKing
I got one of these cards a while back because although my debit card is supposedly safe for use online if it did get used in some sort of fraud scam then they could take me to the cleaners and max it out with these PAYG cards if it was used they can only take what is on there which i limit
Seems to work everywhere you need it to just don't use it abroad or in cash machine (bigger charges)
it costs me 20p every time i put 20 quid on it which i can handle and a small handling charge when depositing to a online bookmakers or online shop
If you go to Moneysavingexpert.com there is a section somewhere on there about the different types avalible ,depending on what you spend and where .
And good for those who have really bad credit rating and struggle to get credit or debit cards from there bank
I think it is a good idea and use mine regularly _________________ 3rd in Copa America Comp

| i'm a househusband with no income apart from the wife and i don't think she would be to happy if when she got her account she found i had opened online accounts with the bookies (she hates gambling) so i thought if i got one of these payg cards then every one's happy |
