Yes, this dosn't matter. its a prepaid card they are not offering any credit. no credit search will be done apart from an idenity check

Nothing. ryanair will not charge you a surcharge ( Currently £6 each way per flight ) for using it. and also you get free flight vouchers but as previously mentioned on these forums they are wothless and 90% of the time the voucher makes you end up paying more for the flight.

It's a Mastercard DEBIT card, will be accepted anywhere you see the mastercard logo. any retail shop ( almost ) there is a fee of 50p per transaction!
