Has anyone heard about this? 
Apparently you put money onto the card and are then able to use it like a normal Mastercard. Benefits being you dont get into debt because you can only spend whats on there, but you can use it anywhere where Mastercard is accepted. I am going to New York next year and would like to avoid getting charged loads to use the hole in the wall - also they dont accept debit cards in many of the shops over there.
Anyone have any more info?? Good or Bad experiences????
Thanks In Advance
