Prepaid Debit Cards = NO for FC

[harleyy2]

Hey All,

I have enough free time on me for the night so I searched Prepaid Debit Cards.  I found out that NO ONE is allowed to use PREPAID Debit Cards.  Prepaid Debit cards are a plastic card that provides an alternative payment method to cash when making purchases.......with this being said....PREPAID is EXACTLY like a phone card..AND the offer you buy something from (ex. a free trial offer getting payed $10 from FC) you'll get the credit reimbursed......I just wanted to let everyone know.

I don't understand; what do u mean by 'no one is allowed to use prepaid debit cards?' Is it for specific offers?

You can use a debit card or credit card just not a prepaid card of any kind.

where did you get the information from about that? How do they even know its prepaid? Most of them work exactly the same as a credit card. I've used them before

Actually no they are arent the prepaid cards first four numbers are a certain set of numbers that are different from a credit or debit cards numbers and the computor system will not recognize the number so wil not accept them.

That's strange why wouldn't you be able to use a prepaid Master credit card if the card is loaded with your own money from the bank? mine is loaded from my bank through direct deposit or load pack, that means its founded from my own pocket. so if I have loaded cash founds I should be able to use it.

Not all prepaid cards are the same

Some cards are founded through personal bank wire or cash load card, if I'm founding the card myself with my own cash there should be nothing wrong with using them.
