I have one of those pre-paid Visa's. I don't have a CC or a bank account and it's worked fine for me so far. Except, a few weeks ago I bought a single video off the iTunes store. It let me download the video so I assumed all is well. I tried to hook my iPod Touch up to get some free app's from the store. Low and behold it's telling me I have an outstanding balance and can't use the store until I pay it. I put my card info in and it's not working. I know the card works because I've used it for other sh!t recently. I'm not trying to find a way around paying Apple the buck I owe them ha. But I don't have any other card to use and this one seems to not work with the store.

What would be my best option here? And suggesting I get a real Visa or a bank account isn't going to help me I'm not looking to do either right now. I would like to be able to connect to the store though :)

I think that it just freaked out.... so maybe do as haffey suggested and use the card to buy a giftcard or something.

GREAT suggestion haffey, and BB is offering a free iTunes card with Touch purchase, I just picked one up last week and am about to go price match it. It won't even cost me anything, I wouldn't want to buy a card just for this, but if the card's free and it fixes my problems WOO. I dunno why I didn't think of that :D
