    Have you tried Cashplus? You'd be the first person who would be unable to open an account with them.
    No credit checks, no bank account or identity documents are required to open an account

    Nope, gunna look in to it now, ideally need something that won't charge for everything or has bad reviews like that Pockit, apparently a lot of money gets 'lost' in their system and it takes months to recover it.
  • Yeah, monthly charges and nothing but bad reviews so that's a write off, thank you anyway mate.

    For goodness sake, I almost wish I hadn't bothered now as you clearly don't want any help.

    The charges don't exactly break the bank but give you an account to get your wages paid into. Which you said was urgent. But it doesn't look as if it really is, else you would get off your potty and get the card.

    I shall make sure I won't offer you help in the future.

    Cool. As I said in the original post, no prepaid cards with charges, I'm not going to give my money to a company that has nothing but bad reviews.

    No need to cry though, I did say thank you ;)
