Bacs transfer to Prepaid

doelani

Has anyone used bacs transfer to pay money to a prepaid? I have a Cashplus card and cannot always get to Post Office to top up and wonderd if anyone has ever paid by transfer/bill paymetn direct from their bank account?

It does say you can set up Standing Order or pay wages into the account so I guess as long as sort code, account number and reference ( card number) are correct should now matter that teh money is coming from my bank account.

Anyone done it ?

Hi,
I have done this more than a few times on my old splash card and have even tested it on my crewcard. So BACS transfer to prepaid cards definitely do work. You do need to make sure you provide the info correctly and in most cases funds will be available in 3-4 days.

Also in most cases, loading via BACS transfer is free - so if you have a Bank account and want to use BACS transfers, it is recommended for sure.

Make sure you check your prepaid card terms and conditions on the section on reloading options and fees when you are applying for a prepaid card to ensure you have got the right card. Check out http://www.prepaid365.com/how-or-where-can-I-reload-or-top-up-my-prepaid-card.html - quite informative and has links to fees comparison for reloading mechanisms.

Cheers

yes so can mine but there is a fee for doing it , can also top up at postoffice for free but my problem is I cannot always get out due to illness but like money on my card to do my shopping online. I only have an electron card and cannot use it for my home delivery.

thanks for the reply
