My payment was turned down by my bank cuz they thought it was a fraudulent charge,  even though I told them it was coming.  A real pain.  Are there any preloaded cards that can be used to avoid this?   I know one is NetSpend but that has monthly fees and I don't think I'm going to be ordering that often.  What are good options (not Bitcoin) to use to pay international vendors and not have to deal with banks stopping them.  

 
Moved to payment section, you'll get more of a response here @screamingmimi, or even suggestions if you look around perhaps.

Oh thanks. didn't even know that was a forum. Only going on 3 hours sleep so not all cylinders firing.   I'm most interested in a prepaid debit/credit card.  I don't mind paying international transaction fees, I just don't want the charge to be flagged as fraudulent.

I've used a NetSpend card before and I don't believe there are monthly fees unless you plan on using it on a regular basis like an actual debit/credit card. Or using other services the card offers besides the basics. Just go to the store and load money on it when you want to use it. I'll double check the leaflet/instructions that came with it...if I can find it. But pretty sure you can avoid monthly fees.

 
Thanks for the info.  I ended up setting up my credit card like I was on vacation in the country that was billing me and that worked.  The int'l transaction fees weren't that bad.

I also found this place but haven't had a chance to really read and figure out if this would work

There is no fee like you say but there is an int'l transaction fee.  Oh maybe this is just for signature or PIN and not just once in a while stuff.

3.5% of the U.S. Dollar amount of the purchase transaction, charged in addition to the Signature Purchase Transaction Fee or PIN Purchase Transaction Fee.

Stay away from Payza they rip you coming and going. Had a transaction completed and they would not let the merchant pickup the money. I could not get through to someone to help, sent numerous emails and IM chats that did not yield anything. So, I reversed the charges and all is good.

It should do, if there is any ambiguity of where the card is being "spent" a phonecall can normally sort that out.

  1. M @ meepmoopmeep: Kiffin is a traitor and he and LSU deserve each other since they’re both complete trash
  2. D @ drdrizzy13: yea he's a joke lol. Can't stand him.
  3. L @ Layne_Cobain: You know who rly sucks…lane kiffin 😂 dude is all that’s wrong with college sports or at least a big chunk of it…and he lied about being told he could still coach ole miss in the playoffs
  4. D @ drdrizzy13: Hey at least Ole Miss got in. I can't stand LSU. They really sucked this year.
  5. M @ meepmoopmeep: as an A&M fan I’m content with us missing the SECCG for that reason. Georgia about to fuck Alabama up
  6. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah I agree if bama loses I think they are out. That would be 3 losses. I don't see a 3 loss team getting in this year.
  7. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah that’s why sark was pleading his case about that Texas shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a non conference game against the best team and losing if they hadn’t done that they’d probably be in but oh well way it goes there’s always gonna be a few teams who get robbed or feel they got robbed even with a 12 team playofff…if bama loses to Georgia I’d think they’d be out but who knows
  8. D @ drdrizzy13: Alabama also lost to Florida State pretty bad. Whom Florida beat. I just think if they didn't decide to play ohio state the first game. They would be in with 2 losses instead of Alabama.
  9. M @ meepmoopmeep: @drdrizzy13 Texas lost to Florida of all teams, they weren’t heading for the playoffs anyways imo. At least not this year
  10. D @ drdrizzy13: Texas is offically out of the playoffs they didn't make the top 12. I do wish they were in it. They showed up against Texas AM. But there fatal flaw was scheduling Ohio State for their opening. Which would have been great if they won but they are a 3 loss team now.
  11. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah idk about arch I could see him staying with Sark for another year but if he plays rly well in the playoff who knows that is if they get in
  12. D @ drdrizzy13: Man a lot of Saints fan want Arch but I think he said he is playing another year. I would take him probably. But if Texas AM QB comes out or Ohio State's I think you gotta take one if your picking top 2.
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: Is the qb class supposed to be stacked or thin for draft in April I follow college ball but I can’t think right now I think there’s def at least a few high potential qb declaring
  14. D @ drdrizzy13: Right now I believe we pick 2nd. ATM.
  15. D @ drdrizzy13: At first I figured he might be able to do something but our position players suck. We are playing a rookie QB. O-line sucks. It needs to be blown up. I hope we tank for the first pick
  16. L @ Layne_Cobain: Hopefully you guys maybe find a solid qb option in the draft you should end up with a very good pick
  17. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah dude Moore def does not seem like the guy for yall need to clean house
  18. D @ drdrizzy13: I should say our receivers suck
  19. D @ drdrizzy13: AK is hurt. Our receivers hurt and our starting QB went to college for fucking 6 years. If that tells you something. Also he never completed a complete season in college due to injury. We need a new GM and FAST. And surprisingly Kellen Moore's play calling has been TERRIBLE.
  20. L @ Layne_Cobain: @drdrizzy13 my boy from way back is a die hard NOLA fan we have some pretty solid back n forth trash talk thru the years haha
