Does anyone still have these and do they work really well for you? I'm thinking about getting one just to I can put money on it for bills and only use that for bills. Does anyone else have these and what company do you recommend getting??

Yes I have got a gold mastercard prepaid card here in the UK. I find it useful to top it up at our local Post Office. We can also top it up in our local town which is further to travel but clears quicker so the funds are availible sooner. I use mine mainly for fuel and the internet

Yes i have an ANZ (australian) one its really good for when you want things and you have to have a credit card to get it, just be carfull you KEEP REALLY GOOD TRACK of your spendings because it can take a week or more for the money to come off your card. I got caught like this and kept using the same money twice and i would then have huge overdrawn fees, but i am on top of it now!
