Bezzza, How do I now get the prepaid mastercard? Thanks x

I personally chose a Bread card

https://www.breadcard.com/index

Cost me £7.50 to buy it and you can top up at post offices so no extra charges - just the £10 initially to "buy" it - had no problems using it to buy flights

Hope it helps - apparently there are lots of other cards but since I would only be putting on £50 over the year just for flights this was by far the cheapest

I got mine via Quidco (£7.50 cashback) - FairFX card and got the one you load in GBP. It doesn't cost to load the card but does charge 1.5% when you use for things like RyanAir bookings. Apparently you can withdraw from any UK cashpoint free of charge.

On the from page it states to have to put £500 on initially to get it free. Otherwise it's £9.95....but once you click through to Apply Now you can choose UK Sterling and it says the card is free whatever amount you load on it. It seems like a no lose card to me. If you load and don't use it then just withdraw at a cashpoint.... and you've got £7.50 Quidco for free. Mine paid up okay.

On £1 (2p) and £5 (10p) flights it's still far cheaper than any of the charges that Ryanair would like to add to the booking.

Searcher2 - Nice to see that Fairfx now let you load any amount and not the £500 they wanted me to load initially in December 2009 hence reason for going with Bread (never mind eh? I'm still happy - cheap flights will always be cheap flights)

Even at an optimistic 10mi/£1 that's still...

Plane

Liverpool --(£5)--> Dublin --(£5)--> Luton
Luton --(£5)--> Dublin --(£5)--> Liverpool

Much more, even with advance tickets.

Far from !!!!ed off lol !!! :rotfl:

Would take a lot more than a £5 flight for that. Was only making a comment and wouldn't be surprised if there are not 1 million flights at £5....nothing is underhand for Ryanair.

Freedom of speech ??? is it not allowed on here ?? I did correct myself and state i had now found flights at different dates.

Jeez a lot of fellow MSE'rs should really lighten up.

I'm normally pro Ryan Air but I can't find anything suitable for me - saying that I have found loads of £5 flights (just not on the dates I want ) so keep searching they are in there
