September 13, 20169 yr I wish to use a generic prepaid Visa, the kind you buy at the store say for $100, instead of my Master Card. Reason: Committee is unlikely to approve the pending 744 v2 purchase. ;-)

As far as I know prepaid cards work just like regular cards where they're accepted - just beware of any fees that they might charge on them for transactions, etc. Kyle Rodgers
September 14, 20169 yr Author Thanks for the reply Kyle my brother. Got $200 CDN socked away for the P3d version.
September 14, 20169 yr Have you considered a prepaid PayPal card? Will cost you $3.95 and you can choose the amount to load on to your PayPal account. <p>Dassault Falcon, Lear, Embraer and Challenger and Cessna Mechanic.Broadcasting live from former Soviet Missile Silo.Rhys Legge
September 14, 20169 yr Author Hmm, curious, but that requires a debit does it not? You see, this needs to be done stealth-like. The wife is a cop and discipline could be severe.
September 14, 20169 yr Hmm, curious, but that requires a debit does it not? Not at all, go to a big box store or Rite Aid, etc. and pay cash for a PayPal card. It's got a 0-500$ load amount. Go to the PayPal cash site, enter the card code and it will load your PayPal account with the specified funds. That's how I buy stuff from Flightsimstore (Australia) where a prepaid Visa is only good for domestic purchases. And the funds are available IMMEDIATELY! <p>Dassault Falcon, Lear, Embraer and Challenger and Cessna Mechanic.Broadcasting live from former Soviet Missile Silo.Rhys Legge

September 16, 20169 yr Author Surely she will notice when you suddenly disappear to fly it for several weeks? Not when she's working nights...

September 16, 20169 yr Author This is reminding me of a certain Key and Peele sketch... Why does that involve the liberal use of an ASP...? ;-)
September 16, 20169 yr Bottom line, Yes you can, I have a pre-paid Visa for online shoping and it's linked to a paypal acount, so if the "card" is not working you can "override" it via paypal( checkout via paypal that takes it from the card) I got both the B77L and the 77W this way. just make sure that your card is open for online shoping. haha - officially? Don't run afoul of the committee. As far as I know prepaid cards work just like regular cards where they're accepted - just beware of any fees that they might charge on them for transactions, etc. Not all shops that accept Visa are accept pre-paid visa card.

September 17, 20169 yr Author Thanks for the info, brothers. Can't buy PayPal cards in canada andso a prepaid visa will have to do.
September 19, 20169 yr Hey Chris, I used a USD Vanilla Visa to buy the J41 last year. No problems. The CAD cards generally work a little easier, as you tie an address and name to them. The only reason I used the USD card was I was in the Middle East at the time, and that's all the base had. Cheers
