Is it worth having a prepaid gold mastercard?

Hi

Just had an email about applying for a cash plus prepaid gold mastercard.

It looks very tempting as it states that it could improvce your credit rating.

Has anyone got one of these? is it worth having one?

Thanks

    Not worth it unless you cannot really have a VISA debit card or sub-prime CC. Lloyds TSB/Barclays offer VISA Debit to almost all types of their current accounts.
