I've won a Prepaid Barclaycard with £0.00 balance

cornishpasty1

I had a Prepaid Barclaycard turn up in the post today with no information in it about why I had received it or anything else, just a normal looking card and details of registering the card (with my name and Congratulations on).

I phoned to register the card and the girl I spoke to confirmed it was a corporate type card with no balance on, and money could/would be loaded after activation, so I'm no the wiser what it's all about :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

I've searched comps and can't see anything similar, does anyone else have this sort of experience and how did it work out?

Hi Cornishpasty!!

what a non- win!! i once won an asda card which had some money loaded on it and had to register it over the phone.Are you sure there's nothing on it?

Do you think it might get credited with something after registering it?

very odd?

I agree it sounds very unusual to have a zero winning balance. I would think a mistake possibly, or maybe it is a security measure and they will load funds once they are satisfied the right person received the card. Either way I am surprised there was no explanation with it.

I "think" you have to register the card, then 3-5 days later you can see how much is on the card & start using it

Fingers crossed it will be a big amount.

no it's not that one, as I have won on that and it was a contactless card, the one that came today is a prepaid :beer:
