Visa Prepaid Giftcards....

absolutely suck! Never get them and think you are doing someone a favor...you are not. I made the mistake of accepting one as payment for some side work I did. I could not use it to pay the remainder of my rent. I went to use it to put gas in my car and they put a hold on the remainder of my funds. Funds that I needed to buy food. So now I am stuck here waiting for the days to go by so that I can access funds that are mine, with no food. When I mean no food, I mean nothing. I have ketchup and a bottle of water...oooo yeah! So thanks to the people who feel that prepaid debit cards are a great thing, they screw you over.
