What is the best prepaid card to use for int'l charges?  By best I mean free to get, no monthly fees, no inactivity fees and easy to load from a regular account. And reasonable conversion rate. (can you tell how cheap I am?)

Netspend was recommended by a vendor and I think someone else here recommended a green card I think.

I'm still trying to set my regular CC to the country I'm purchasing from (they think I'm there) but in case that becomes a problem I'd like a backup.

Thanks

 
I just had a long conversation with my credit union.  They told me to call them as soon as a transaction is made and set up a travel strategy.  This lets them know there will be a charge for x amount of dollars being charged by (name the place uses) and it should go through no problem.   Mine was set up for a week but if it goes longer just call CS at my credit union and they should be able to do it.

I had been told by multiple people to set up my credit card like I was traveling in the country where the charge will be.  The only problem with that is that if a harge goes through in the US it could muck up the works.

I told contact another credit card I use and they pretty much told me the same thing.

Because I'm so cheap, doing it this way appeals to me because there's only a small fee associated with the international transaction.   Vs some debit cards that charge $1 for the transaction plus 3.5%.   

I'm doing that now with PP2e so hope it works.

 
Any one know a good prepaid credit card i can get to use with a popular vendor on the dbg banner my debit card won't go through and have been advised to use this method communication been good between them just could do without the delay which i know they don't want either ? Oh I in the UK by way the one they advised is netspend but it won't let me put in my postcode as the box require s a zip code and won't allow letters to be put in any help would be appreciated people . Thanks

I have had tons of problems with my card and Doc. I call them and give them all the info and fraud still stops it but he's really patient.  I also have a Chase card through Amazon which I'm going to use on my next order. I have to call them first and give them the heads up but they say no  problems.   It's like a double edged sword.  You want fraud to be on the alert (someone used my card to by a flight on air serbie) but if I call them and tell them about a charge then there shoudl be no issues.

I did just use my card for apurchase in australia.  I was on the line with my credit union while I did it and there were no issues so who knows.  I think Visa has a pre paid international card.

I use NETSPEND with PPE2U,

most u.s debit cards from your bank will not work, unless you unlock it, plus i prefer not to use my real debit card/ credit card just in cash anyone charges more than what i paid for or try's to clear me out of funds, so i use the re loadable NETSPEND, put enough in it for my transaction, and not  worry if someone try's to charge 500$ instead of $40 , so be safe get a re loadable! 

 
I like using netspend as well.  You can use netspend prepaid cards for basically anything except loading money from the netspend card to another non-netspend account.  I like to use my netspend prepaid card whenever I don't want to get my regular bank accounts involved with transactions.  You can never be too safe these days.

Hi there, if your based in the UK you can use Swirlcard MasterCard. 

I have used it in the past with no problems.

Hope that helps some.

Regards,  T.

 
Hi does anyone know if you can use a U prepaid card to use with a doc from the UK ?

  1. ClintEastwood @ ClintEastwood: Just wondering if anyone well trusted has a supply of research thienos or benz in powders for good average prices? Or could give a shout out from me to him? Or the best lowest per each? I’ve seen some cool and some i just know are worth it. Good price rv presses too but it is much more bang for your buck. I have one good vendor. But am looking for variety’s well. Send me a message or reply if you think any. Thanks - CLINT E. Any Heavy stuff too which all seem about the ssmmmmmm
  2. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I always thought I should’ve been born in a much earlier time but I will say, i do enjoy my Xbox and occasional TV series tho 😂
  3. Realbenzeyes @ Realbenzeyes: I just wish the opioid epidemic never happened. Fk the turn of the century (which would be cool no doubt)! Many of my friends and family would’ve ended up in asylums like so many others. I just wish I could get back all those I’ve lost since the start
  4. L @ Layne_Cobain: 1914 I meant
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
  6. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
  7. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
  8. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
  9. R @ Royboy99: Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
  10. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
  11. R @ Royboy99: @malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
  12. Maelstrom @ Maelstrom: I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
  13. R @ Royboy99: Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
  14. R @ Royboy99: It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
  15. R @ Royboy99: Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
  16. R @ Royboy99: One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
  17. R @ Royboy99: I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
  18. R @ Royboy99: And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
  19. R @ Royboy99: I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
  20. R @ Royboy99: @LatsDoodis: thanks brother … I’ve spent months trying to put myself in uncomfortable places to grow stronger. Hours of research, thousands on supplements, therapy etc …
