curiositykilledthecat Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 don't use paypal Link to comment
DailyDi Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Never tried a prepaid card. Doubt it would work for verifying a Paypal account (since they use address verification and prepaids aren't tied to an address.) Link to comment
Abby Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Check the instructions in the card. I had a prepaid Mastercard, and it gave me a site where I could put in the card name, and then tie it to an address I could use. I was then able to attach it to my paypal. Why would you want to take the money off and put it on your paypal, though? If you're paying someone with a paypal.... then there is always the little option to "Don't have a paypal account? Use a credit card!" or whatever it says at checkout. Link to comment
Guest Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 because after a month it takes off like money Link to comment
fire07 Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 I used mine with PayPal no problem. You just have to make sure that you've registered the card, which you can usually do on the card's website. Link to comment
Bettypooh Posted March 12, 2009 Share Posted March 12, 2009 It's a money eater but I use a Green Dot prepaid MC for my verified paypal account. These have fees everywhere you look, but they're very secure with your info and money Paypal verification requires the card's bank to have the cardholder's SS number which is why the throw-aways aren't 'verifiable' Bettypooh Link to comment
