Need to buy a one time use credit card

[iwearnosox]

Do such things exist? I need to make a purchase from someone that's got a shady history for recurring charges, do they make a rechargable type credit card I can buy somewhere?

I'm not interested in signing up for a regular credit card that issues one type use numbers, either..

American Express Gift Card

That seems like something that might work.

 

[Hammer]

you can set one up online at americanexpress.com if you have an amex card

That's a possibility, thanks. The vendor has a big warning on their website that says "single use credit card numbers like private payments from american express cannot be used for orders."

Is this the same thing?

That's really shady. I don't care what the price is, don't order from these people. You probably will not end up getting the merchandise at all.

It's a reputable vendor, actually. I'm not concerned with getting the merchandise but I want to guarantee I won't experience any type of recurring charge.

if u have a citibank card, u can dl their software to generate one-time use cc's based on your current cc...

The Simon Gift Card is a one-time use Visa. Kind of like an individual store's gift card, but can be used anywhere that accepts Visa. You can get them at any mall listed on their site.

EDIT: Oops Fixed Link

As indicated in the original post I don't want to sign up for a credit card explicitly for that purpose. Thanks though.

They don't seem to be local to me nor do they sell online.

Found out Bank of America sells a similar product. I'm sure other banks have gotten in on this too...

Thanks, that's one that will probably work.

Someone told me rite aid sells something like this, anyone have info on that?

 

[iwearnosox]

Yeah, got off the phone with the rite aid people. $10 initial fee, $4 to recharge it at a later date.

I'm going down there, thanks for all the feedback!
