Prepaid virtual credit card

in Credit cards
I have a prepaid virtual credit card with £10 on it that I got for doing some surveys online.
How on earth do I use it??
Amazon won't let you use it as a partial payment when paying with another card, and Paypal don't like it either, so that rules eBay purchases out.
Where or how can I spend this thing?? I normally opt for an Amazon voucher but thought this would give me more flexibility. What was I thinking???
Does anyone know of any easy options where I can make up the extra cost with a debit card?

You could buy something for less than £10 on amazon etc.0

As with virtual cards in for example Neteller, Revolut and Soldo you don't get a plastic card but you get all the details; card number, name on card, expiry date and CVV. You use it online.0

I had a few of these a while ago. I used them as part payment towards a catalogue account.
Could you use it as part payment towards a credit card bill?

Tried that, but their postage is really high for small items, so it kept taking it over £10!
Perhaps I'll try boots online or similar and collect from a store avoid the postage!
Thanks for the suggestions!Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')

Use it to load your PayPal account? You can then use it as part payment or withdraw to your bank account.0
