O2 Prepaid card £5 bonus for 2x£50 load (O2 customers only)


413°

FOUND BY: chansk 3 months, 1 week ago

For those looking for a prepaid card, O2 have just launched 2 prepaid cards - Cash Manager and Load & Go. Works like a Visa debit card. This is only available for active O2 customers.

What's the difference between Cash Manager and Load & Go cards?
You can load money onto a Cash Manager card online using a UK debit card. With Load & Go, you can load money online, or you can put cash onto your card at O2 shops, any independent retailer or petrol station that show either the PayPoint or e-pay signs or anywhere you see a PayPoint or e-pay sign.

Good thing I noticed is that the card is free to obtain with free UK atm withdrawals. 2.75% of transaction value for non-UK. And you get a refund of any funds left over when you cancel the card (unlike some I've seen!)

I think these will be good for taking to festivals / gigs where there's so many people about and you don't want to take risk losing your wallet.

For a limited time, they are offering a £5 thank you when you load the card with at least£50 in consecutive months.

No account opening fees, no topup fees, no withdrawal or other transaction fees within the UK. Every other prepay card of this type will hit you with charges for one or more of those things. This is cracking!

I'm sure pre-pay cards can't be used to buy flights or book hotel rooms.

I don't see why not. People have been using Entropay virtual/online visa electron to book Ryanair flights for months.. you can have one from scratch in minutes.
although this O2 card seems to be a straight Visa so you'll still have to pay card charges @ Ryanair.
