angeleyes, if you dont mind me asking, whats the reason for wanting a prepaid card?

i ask because the things can be very expensive to run - most charge £5 to £10 to buy the thing, then another £5 to £10 annual fee, plus £1 or so every time you put money on to it, and then 25p or thereabouts each time you actually spend something!

Unless youre buying online from somewhere that will ONLY take a Mastercard, youre probably better off opening a basic bank account somewhere like Halifax that will give you a Visa Electron card, and using that.
