Attitude pre-paid cards

Has anyone used a pre-paid card at Attitudes in the 2013 year?
If so, what kind?

Last time I ordered from Attitude I used a Visa Nfinanse. They no longer work.
I went to pick up a Visa Green Dot (that I have been told will work) and it says on the package not for use for Merchants outside of the U.S.

I didn't see any restrictions on the Visa Vanilla, but I thought I should verify before I purchase another pre-paid that may or may not work.

I even had to tell Visa to cut their restrictions on oversea transactions on my debit card. I got it all cleared up and it works again at all my favorite "boutiques". Just for giggles, I wonder if Visa customers were caught off guard during the Olympics. Would have made it very difficult to pay room and food bills or go shopping for trinkets. Not smart.
 
I use a walmart moneycard visa and it works fine but you cant use the temporary card for international transactions. You have to wait for your personalized card.

Hey Man.. I had bought an nfinance card but it is asking you to register and input your social sec number. I made up the name and ssn and it gave me an error stating it was not a match and that I had to call.. I still ended up using the card online and paid my cable bill and just used the fake name I used for the registration (even though it showed "error") and the charge went through successfully. So the card still worked.
So, even when registering a fake name and social and even with the error at registration, the card still worked for a US transaction online. I am guessing, it might still work then for a purchase with Attitude.
What was the issue you had that you say it doesn't work?

Royal seeds accept a type of pymt called Paysafe card which is like cash and anonymous.. and you can buy it at several places in the US. Just not sure if attitude accepts it, I emailed them today and haven't gotten a reply yet. I doubt they take it but this Paysafe sounds very good... check them out. And if you know Attitude takes this let me know.

Also, if anyone can please recommend a card that works for Attitude and that you don't have to call or register or wait for it in the mail and have used it recently please let us know,.

Only prepaid I found was the HR Block Mastercard Emerald card or the Walmart money card but you have to wait a week until the real card arrives before international purchases.

And why I don't use my debit, I have seen too many times when people have ordered from Sage Pay and their credit card info gets ganked.

Wow, Sagepay still gets hacked!? This happened to me once years ago (ordering from Attitude) but hasn't happened again since.

Crazy. I don't really care because it's a minor inconvenience, you just tell your CC company and they send you a new card and reverse all the charges that you didn't incur.

I had my MasterCard denied and had to call the bank today. Lady at the bank said there were alot of International hacks going on right now. Glad my card covers fraud charges. Those pre-pay cards sound like a real pain in the backside.

All credit card companies cover fraudulent charges. That's one of the only actual benefits to using a credit card actually.

Up until April of 2012 they were easy to use. Now it has become a real pain in the ass. But, knowing how things are it is easy to make it work. Go to Walmart and get your card a couple of weeks before the promo so you receive the permanent card before promo starts. You can use the permanent card internationally and of course if it gets hacked after you make your purchase, there is nothing they can do with it.
