in Credit cards
Hi
I live and work outside of the UK and receive my salary in euros into a non uk bank account. I'm going to holiday to America in a few months and I'd like to take a pre-paid credit card loaded with my spending money.
My question is, does anyone know of a company which allows the initial load onto the card to be made in euros? All the companies I have contacted so far will only accept funds in GBP's from UK bank accounts.
Thanks

Kalixa's MasterCard has no exchange rate loading in any currency.
For UK customers the account holds pounds, and the exchange rate is on the day of transaction.
However it also operates in some other European countries, so see what you can find.
Also, I understand Ukash has a prepaid MasterCard, and operates in various countries, but I don't know much about it yet. It seems to have 2.75% exchange margin though, so you might suffer that from euros to dollars.0
