I've had a number of ebay buyers who actually used prepaid reloadable credit cards. Other ones simply I am unsure about but their cards get declined because they are broke and didn't put money in it.

thelizardking 01-19-2008 10:35 PM

they won't know its a vcc, as long as you have the funds to clear it you should be fine. When your funds on that card run out. Go buy a new card and register it with the same info as the other one and make one time payments.

mycat2 01-20-2008 01:12 AM

I love this forum!! Thank you guys!!

ebayvictim 02-03-2008 06:12 PM

I order a Simon Giftaccount yesterday morning. It said expected delivery was 2/3 but so far NOTHING! Is this normal? I paid for it with a 'real' debit card.

thelizardking 02-03-2008 07:17 PM

Yeah if you order it on the weekend you won't get it till mon/tues.

ebayvictim 02-03-2008 07:19 PM

Thanks, I'm still fighting the paranoia! LOL

thelizardking 02-03-2008 07:25 PM

haha, yeah don't worry. The first one I ordered on a Fri eve, got it on mon eve, and I started getting paranoid. They'll email you with the card. Now I only order Mon-Thurs am, usually shows up within 24hrs.

Lisa B 02-08-2008 01:52 PM

Can you also add the virtual simon gift gard to your PayPal as well?
Thanks

raysacr 02-27-2008 12:58 AM

My account got suspended, and now I have a Simon Virtual account still with $20 on it. How do I used the simon account if it has a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name and address on it?

thelizardking 02-27-2008 01:25 AM

You can order stuff on the internet, just make sure that if its something that will be shipped...they can send it to your real address.

Simon still good for EBAY?
 
I used a simon card to activate an ebay acct, but got declined...
I've never had this problem before.

My guessing is maybe ebay has noticed that too many accts activated by simon card got problems when ebay charged for the monthly fee...

Maybe I have to switch to other alternatives...:mad:

aspkin 02-29-2008 04:21 PM

I don't think so, just try another card.

koalawash 03-01-2008 02:10 AM

I doubt that was the reason. Was it the typical "abusing ebay" message?

umaga 03-02-2008 10:14 PM

where to get credit card ?
 
hi, to sign up for paypal and ebay, you need a credit card. I know simon.com gift cards are pretty popular in this forum, but my buddy told me they dont work any more, is this true? are there other options? thank you

koalawash 03-02-2008 11:09 PM

It does work for expanded use. I've done it before.

Unless something has changed very recently, you should be alright.

Lisa B 03-03-2008 11:03 AM

Worked for me for expanded use last month as well, you should be OK.

Unless something has changed

umaga 03-10-2008 12:24 AM

where is my simon gift card?
 
i bought a virtual simon gift card 2 days ago, i just checked my email and still nothing. when are they going to send it?

thelizardking 03-10-2008 12:27 AM

Monday...they take a while if you order them over the weekend...could even be Tues...

rayray2fly 03-11-2008 08:33 AM

I tried to use a Simon card this morning to register but I never received the email to complete. Live help then told me that they told me that they would have to mail me a verification code in order to complete registration.

suspended_bastard 03-13-2008 10:43 AM

Simon online gift card
 
When getting one of those, do I need to enter my own name and address for recepient's name and address?


Can I use it only after it arrives to me?


How about virtual credit cards?



How about green dot prepaid from walgreens: Walgreens | Store | Green Dot Prepaid MasterCard and Visa cards

suspended_bastard 03-13-2008 11:32 AM

Simon virtual debit card - receipient's info?
 
What to enter for recipient's info when ordering one of those?


My real information or ⊗⊗⊗⊗ information?

k1ley4evr 03-13-2008 11:34 AM

put the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info

sat_seller 03-13-2008 11:37 AM

Yes just put the ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info, i did this just today. You have to put in your real info for the purchasers info, ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info for recipient info. And by the way, Papyal approved my new Simon virtual card just this morning. Thanks again to the people of this forum.

suspended_bastard 03-13-2008 11:45 AM

But recepient's phone and e-mail have to be real, no? Or we don't care about phone, just e-mail?

suspended_bastard 03-13-2008 01:37 PM

Hello hello hello????


What about recepient's phone and e-mail address?

jacnatali 03-13-2008 01:44 PM

simon gift account
 
when signing up for a simon gift account you have the oppurtunity to add your information and the recipients information. do i add my real info for myself and add ⊗⊗⊗⊗ info for the recipient? what about billing information? i need to pay with my debit card which is linked with an ebay suspension. do i use my real information in the billing information?

suspended_bastard 03-13-2008 01:52 PM

I have a similar question. What about recipient's phone and e-mail address. Real or ⊗⊗⊗⊗?

thelizardking 03-13-2008 08:29 PM

all the recepient info should be the same as ebay/Paypal including phone and email...

suspended_bastard 03-13-2008 09:11 PM

Got it!

But do simon call that ⊗⊗⊗⊗ phone number to verify the card?

k1ley4evr 03-13-2008 09:15 PM

no they do not call!!

thelizardking 03-13-2008 09:16 PM

no you just acivate it thru the email you receive as the recipient...they say you need to use a phone but you don't..

anthonychan 03-14-2008 10:14 AM

Recipents email should be real, and the address should be a valid address although it doesn't have to be your address.

Simon Visa Giftcard / Giftaccount activation
 
Q: I just ordered simon gift account. Entered a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ phone number. Am I screwed and won't be able to activate this gift card?


Here is what it said in the e-mail.

Quote:

IMPORTANT: Simon Visa Giftcards and Giftaccounts must be activated before use. The recipient must use the same recipient phone number you provided on this purchase order

TMiles 03-18-2008 05:14 PM

Modee...Missouri.....I do not get that reference...


However, I agree with your point....even Askin pointed it out.....I think five times in this post, the same question was asked and answered.


PS - Do not be ragging on us Southern Boys...

TotallyDisgusted 03-24-2008 01:26 PM

Simon
 
I'm sure it has been covered somewhere in here but...

What is the difference between a Simon Gift Card & a Simon Gift Account? Is the only difference the physical plastic card?

aspkin 03-24-2008 02:27 PM

Forget simon gift card, you want simon gift account, you'll receive your card details by email with gift account.

thelizardking 03-24-2008 02:59 PM

Yeah Gift Account is the Virtual Card by email..

Now does the simon gift account work with paypal? If not, what is the best method as far as registering a cc or debit card because I would like to take out more than just 500usd per month. I got the bank thing figured out, cant do the social security thing, so the only thing else is a CC or debit. What is the best thing to do? Thanks again in advance. MJ

Also, I forget if paypal asks for your CC address. Do they and if so, then do I just use the address i made through ebay? Also, what is the best solution for clearing out and changing my IP? I know I am getting off the wall here, but eBay has me going mad!!!! Thanks

Simon Gift Account
 
Hi. Is it still possible to purchase a Simon Gift account and then purchase more gift accounts with the first gift account you purchased?

I need a bunch of gift accounts for different accounts so I can bid on items (they require a credit card before you can bid now-_-).
