Time to stock up on prepaid cards? Shocked

Prepaid cards do not and will disappear. What they should do is to do more control of the companies that buy them in large quantities and how they are then made available.

Now, if the company knows how to set up the business well, it will be able to continue to make these cards available without major problems. As I commented in the other post, Visa/Mastercard only know the intermediary of these cards, it all depends on how the intermediary does his job.

My concern with the prepaid is that they will drop the max amounts down to such a low amount as to make them more difficult to use then they are worth.
Do you want to have to use 3 x $50 cards a month to pay your cable bill?

OTOH, for prepaid you still have the 2 step process for some places. i.e. Walmat Gift card and then go to Walmart and use the gift card to purchase a prepaid Visa. Just a lot more time & effort.
