no, no, no.

its PRELOADED.

meaning you put money on the card, but when its gone, its gone.

thats not credit.

they will work will some advertisers, but more and more are NOT taking them.

(you'll get a screen saying "unable to verify".... or something like that)

green dot USED to work fine... not so much anymore.

i'm alittle paranoid.... i know..... but i have a real problem with SO MANY different companies having my real cc or bank account info.

over the years, i guess, i've been ripped off too many times.

From my understanding..you can only use a prepaid if its an 'out an out purchase'..meaning no trials where the advertiser will have permission to automatically dip in your funds again when the trial runs out.-in case you neglect to reload the card with funds-.and when u sign up for a trial...thats what u give them permission to do, unless you let them know 'not' to do it..and even then sometimes they wont stop...

yes but thats the thing with prepaid cards..people dont care if they reload them or not..an then the advertiser is screwed if he needs to take funds an there arent any there....unfortunately because of bad gpt members that dont reload the cards when they know an offer if due to charge them again...and advertisers that are crooks, that will go back into your credit/debit account when they arent supposed to...this has become such an unfortunate issue...

what are you saying here?

that youve connected your green dot with your bank account?

i didnt know that was possible.... but more importantly..... WHY would you want do that?

just trying to understand what youre talking about.
