Entropay is the best way to start in the UK.

You need to open the entropay account in your real details

Yes, as James says, entropay is great.


When you make the virtual card to use on paypal, you only need to add numbers, very simple. Ask later if you want.

Default Re: whats pre paid cards still work?

thank you for the warm welcome everyone, i've been lurking for a while and must say everyone seems very helpful so i will give back if i ever come across some worthwhile info.

I visited many shops today (UK) looking for iBax, prime and any other prepaid card which you can load up but nowhere seems to stock it anymore for over the counter purchase.
I also used the store locator on the prime website and everyone within a 50 mile radius had any.

It is important for me to be able to buy a card over the counter for maximum stealth

Another one of my goals is to find one i can use with abine.com so i can create unltd VCC for my purpose. I take it i will need a card which can be used world wide but this is proving difficult to find.

I bought a prepaid visa giftcard from Tesco (25 GBP preloaded) which initially accepts the card but doesn't let me create them (thought it was worth a punt as i can just use this for anything else anyway).

If anyone knows a solution please share and if anyone wants to work together to find a solution for this then get commenting!
I'm sure if we all hit our heads together we would find something eventually.

Thank you in advance for any advice i may receive.

Entropay is easiest.

'It is important for me to be able to buy a card over the counter for maximum stealth ' - Are you planning on ripping Ebay or PayPal off? lol otherwise Entropay is fine.

Prime cards are fine. I found them in Londis, but true,they are quite rare.

3V vouchers are problematic at the moment.

That was my point, if he wants more 'stealth' i.e nothing to link him to his real self to law enforcement he is planning something wrong.

Default Re: whats pre paid cards still work?

I'm sorry for not explaining thoroughly enough and I understand you thinking this but the reason for this is i don't have documentation to verify entropay. I'll also add that i do not have a bank account so this is the best solution for me. P.S. i don't intend to create an ebay account for this (nor am i a seller) so there will be no way for me to accumulate a bill that i don't intend to pay.

I say maximum stealth because you never know who you are giving your financial information to on the internet and I simply would feel a lot safer knowing that the funds on there is only enough to make the specific purchase, which is why being able to use Abine would be a perfect solution for me. A lot of people insist on payment via card online so masking cards is an essential safety feature which i remind you, you don't get credit for, you pay before you receive so please don't make acquisitions.


Returning to the thread topic anyway.. with 3V vouchers do you get a card number with this or do you need to purchase a gift card to add the voucher to?

Regards,
AF

How are you going to withdrawal your paypal funds if you do not have a bank account? and you dont need a bank account for Entropay, you can use a credit card to upload funds.

Sounds like you are watching to many conspiracy theorist films on youtube

3V vouchers work the same as Entropay, buy a voucher and register it on the 3v website.

I don't intend to have any balance or withdraw from my paypal account, i basically just want to make payments.

Thanks for the information on 3V vouchers.

They can be a little bit temperamental in recent times and sometimes require ID to be sent in before they can be used.
