AMEX is a credit card company, saying "AMEX works" pretty much refers to all credit cards issued by AMEX

Entropay should only be used for spending if your account is already verified. Never attempt to verify your account using entropay.

SOME gift cards may still work for verification, but most are blacklisted by now. You can still spend it using paypal nevertheless.

Amex is hit and miss - depends on card.

Vanilla Visa still works on the large part - some of them do fail.

EP is dicey - folx still use it but pp seems to be very wise on this for North Am users - I have not made an account with EP in a bit but...figure I can try and report back next week. Might need a nudge around Wednesday heh.

Me? Sometimes pp account - sometimes prepaid card. Best is to use prepaid card but I go against the grain here and there.

No...what? I know the best recommendation is prepaid card and I agree. For me, I just stated what I do from time to time.
