Is there any card I can get instantly to use online and load up with my credit card?
I am having trouble using my debit card online, and I need another card now and I don't want to wait 2 weeks for a "prepaid credit card" to come in via mail.

Let me know if anyone knows.
Thanks!

You're asking for a refillable gift card which can be funded with a credit card, right?

Why not just use your credit card for online purchases?

pr0n or are you just paranoid?

If you're having trouble using your debit card to purchase normal goods online, what makes you think you'll have better luck using your debit card to "purchase" a credit account online?

The actual use of the card is for Google AdWords.
My card is not working because of account terms in which I somehow "violated" and I have no idea how though...

My 2 debit cards (Paypal & Bank of America) will not work because they are in my name.
We are now using a different name (totally legal) and just need a card of some kind.

The grocery store cards require you to wait for them to mail them to you, right?
That is what I see, I don't shop at Wal-Mart.

Anyone got ideas of an online service (besides Paypal) that does this?

Thanks

Nope they're physically at the store, you fund it then take it with you. There is a fee of around $6 but it's quick and convenient.

I've seen these at Staples and Walgreens stores as well.

Do you know which companies.
Because the Gift Cards seem to be just like that.. BUT , the credit cards are usually just a piece of paper and then they mail it to you.
That is at GROCERY stores though.
Tomorrow I am going to STAPLES and perhaps WALGREENS.

Thanks a lot, and if anyones got anything else I appreciate that as well!

I've received a few PM's and emails asking about these, which did you end up getting?

Paypal has one.

Click on the Plugins, then on Secure Card. You don't have to install anything, it just whips you out a MasterCard number.

Is that available for Paypal Personal accounts?

I don't know. I had to upgrade to a Premier account last time I sold a computer :(

Paypal allows you to have two accounts, one personal and one premier/business. Or at least they used to.
