Hi there,
I just had a question about using paypal with prepaid cards in the UK.
I am thinking about using linking a prepaid card to my paypal account and wanted to know:
Can you use a prepaid card to withdraw funds from paypal?. I am aware that it can be used with paypal acounts but what features are not avaliable if any.
If you have experianced using prepaid cards with paypal please mention the problems you faced.
Also which prepaid card would you recomend for me to use with paypal.

I believe that you can link it to your account just like any credit card.
Does your Paypal account currently link to a bank? I am not sure or not whether or not that it has to if you are linked to a card. You just need someway to put money into Paypal and someway to withdraw it.
Hopefully I am correct about this.

I just need a way to withdraw it and make it into real cash without using a credit card/ bank account.

Yes, you can check the FAQ in the paypal site.
Not just in UK, but internationally, if you have a DC card that CAN be linked with paypal, you can withdraw your funds into it easily, by visiting the withdraw page from your main page. You have to select withdrawal into attached card option from there and continue.
Paypal doesnt accept all DC cards, because they lack a certain number(a code which isnt in all DCs but is available in all CCs) and they accept Visa and Mastercard. Both are recommendable.
Good luck.
