New pre paid crd card from payzone
 

Payzone have brought out a new crd card that you top up more info and outlets at www.payzonemoney.com you buy the card in a shop you get two cards a loading card and crd card it costs €6 but no time limit on balance or transfer rates on bal like 3v find it alot better can use it in shops as well and abroad you also get a pin code to use at atms. Hope this helps any one that get refused from the banks that are being bailed out with our tax money!!! I think it is a safer way of having a crd card as it can not run into the red you can only spend what you have put on it

Brilliant news MEW..I thought 3v was good but this sounds even better! Thanks for info.

Forgot to mention it cost €3.50 a top up and if you are going on hols you can leave your loading card with a friend or family and if you need extra cash / help they can send it straight too you without delay from any pay zone point. These are the pink signs outside post offices and shops.

Thanks for sharing this very handy to know!

Hi all, these cards are great i have 2. brilliant for booking flights on the net etc.
only drawbacks ive found sofar are
1. you get charged for loading the card and you get charged for withdrawing from ATM's... if you have to withdraw €20 you need to have €21.50 in account.

2. when loading card in payzone outlet if staff make a mistake (easily done) thay can load and unload card if they think transaction hasnt gone trough. It then takes at least 24hrs for payzone to sort it out... so can be a nightmare.

hope this helps
