Every one going with his own experience and I am saying Uquid is currently best in use as they are giving very good service and support is also very quick to response use this card without any problem

They have been offline for a few days.

Important question: do all these (most of these) cards we are talking about hold your balance in bitcoin, or rather in fiat currency in a separate electronic wallet? Which card is which? I guess, the method when the card is directly connected to bitcoin should be better, but in reality? In the former case, are your bitcoins only exchanged to fiat currency at the money you cash out at an ATM or buy something in a shop/online? In the latter case, usually how long does it take for your bitcoin to be transferred and exchanged to the fiat electronic wallet?

For example Cryptopay.me - when you open an account, you have four accounts there BTC/USD/EUR/GBP.
First you have to transfer Bitcoin to your cruptopay Bitcoin account and then, when you need, you can load your card.
For me this is better option, because i can choose moment when i want exchange Bitcoin to fiat - of course i think about the best price.
Withdrawing from ATM in my opinion is very expensive for every card, so i'm doing this only when i must. (as i know the smallest fee is around $2.5)
Paying shops and internet is very ok( if you pay in currency that card was issued, in other currencies sometimes they take little %) - anyway it is very comfortable and not expensive.

I never make operation: my BTC wallet > cryptopay BTC wallet > fiat > bank account, so i can't help you, but if someone did it, please let us know.
