Help picking a prepaid credit card

in Credit cards
There seems to be so many different ones out there to choose from and I find it hard to get my head around it.
Me and my husband only got a cash card at the moment due to bad credit history. We finally got ourself debt-free last year and now would like a credit card for emergency's only, something we can put money in direct debit on each month.
Also if I get a card I can start selling on Ebay again.
Does anyone here hold a prepaid credit card that they can recommend?
Do they all charge a monthly fee even if we don't use the card?

Hi
I have a cashplus pre paid credit card which is excellent.
There are two ways you can be charged and if you are not thinking of using it much at all then I would recommend option 2:
1. £4.95 deducted per month regardless of amount of transactions OR
2. £1.00 per transaction
There is no charge to load money on via DD.Happy and thankful with never enough time to do everything:rotfl:0 -
Hi
Can anyone help please. I would like to know if anyone has ever used their splash plastic card to play the National-Lotery online and whether the card is accepted by the national-lottery?0
