I am looking to make a one off payment, online US store for a small transaction. less than £30
Am a bit wary to use my card as its my only one, worry about security etc
Would a bread card be worthwhile for this?? Any issues with them??
Thanks in advance guys

Never heard of it but what security issues do you mean?
Do you order stuff online anyway - does your bank give you a guarantee that you will not be liable for internet fraud?
If so you have nothing to worry about other than making sure that the site is secure before making the purchase (https etc)0 -
Fraud issues etc
I dont use online normally no
The site says it has quote -
"When our registration/order form asks you to enter sensitive information (such as your credit card number), that information is encrypted and is protected with the best encryption software currently available in the industry - SSL. Transdesign.com uses the most advanced form of SSL software available: 128-bit encryption by Network Solutions SiteSafe. To learn more about SSL, follow this link www.networksolutions.com. "
This means nothing to me.
I guess its worth spending £10 for a prepaid card to be 100% sure?
Any help would be appriciated! (sorry about the double thread, blip on pc!)OU Law studentMay Grocery challenge£30/ £110 -
No need as most banks give you free protection against internet (or any other kind of) fraud provided you have not acted stupidly.0
