The Register have details on a new credit card deal that's going on here in Ireland....
The Register wrote:Permanent TSB says that pre-paid credit for its disposable Visa card is now available in over 1,000 shops and petrol stations throughout Ireland.
The disposable Visa cards - dubbed 3V cards - enable people to buy goods and services over the phone and the internet even if they don't have a credit card. Customers buy credit in retail outlets, in the same way that they can buy pre-paid mobile phone credit. The maximum credit which can be purchased on any one 3V voucher is €350 and the minimum is €20.
I personally think this is the best thing since sliced bread! Sure if you can manage you money, then a standard card would be better, as will increase your credit rating.... But for the poor suckers out there who just can't say no..... PERFECT!
