Pre-Paid visa's

Twin#1[Op-for] · January 2nd, 2010, 21:14

Hey, so I need to make an order from EhobbyAsia, but I don't know if pre-paid visa's work or not. I can't find it on the website, so has anyone used one with them before or just in general? Thanks

AngelusNex · January 2nd, 2010, 21:17

Prepaid Visa's should work everywhere a regular visa will work.

Twin#1[Op-for] · January 2nd, 2010, 21:18

Sweet thanks, I can finish my M4 then

Yup. Can easily get a pre-paid Mastercard from Money Mart too, works the same as any MC and by all places.

Twin#1[Op-for] · January 2nd, 2010, 21:20

Alright sweet, I'm just going to go to Van City to pick one up, closer :P

CDN_Stalker · January 2nd, 2010, 21:29

Whichever works for you, go for it.

Honestly why not just use paypal? Its alot simplier, all banks in Canada should work including President's Choice (which is a PITA as it doesnt allow DD or EMT)

Apparently Coast Capital can't do Paypal. Believe me, if I could I be on that so fast

Odd, seriously phone paypal ask them what is required to setup paypal,
usually its your bank account number, branch, etc
After you give paypal those, they will make a deposit between $0.01 to $0.99 and you just need to phone them and key in how much they deposite to verifiy its your account. And then thats it.

Sry for thread jack, but Prepaid credit card charges bunch of extra annoying fees which I remember.

There arent any extra fees for the ones i use, just whatever is asked by the seller. However there is a 1 time charge of $4.95 to activate your card when your at the register. (I use Mastercard Vanilla cards)

Pay pal throught your bank takes a whole of 10 minutes to open a bank acount and pay pal takes like a few days to activate anyways

I personally don't trust PP with my bank info at all.

It's like a faceless corporation who only really cares about the bottom line plus PP can reach into your account and take out money too in addition to banning your account and keeping your money.

Oh, Ehobby takes DD? I've done so many of those, but I'd rather set something up that I can do online purchases without having to do DD's. My friend works at my bank, and I asked him if they do Paypal through them but he said no, so maybe I'll check again. I'd like to set it up, be way easier and not have to ask my parents to do it for me
