Sure this has been discussed before, but can't find it. Anyone regularly use pre-payment (throw away) or virtual credit cards; any recommendations?

And no, this isn't a means of doing anything illegal, or trying to hide debt, just need to separate out some merchant transactions.
 
I use them, and my youngest 2 have them as well (under 10).

I have one that has a fiver on it, that I use for online verification services. I use alot of online live auction sites, and you need a card to register for each auction. Rather than enter my main one, the one with a fiver on is approved each time. I then pay cash on collection :)

Kids have GoHenry cards. Imagine the looks they get using them in shops :)

I use CashPlus business as you can also take bank transfers into that one.

I also have an old Orange cash one, and another one I got from BT. But find Cash Plus the best, even with fees and high costs of calling support.
 
Got my sister a pockit card to use she just tops it up in the newsagent fees seem pretty reasonable
its worked most places only time she ever had trouble was ordering a dominos pizza
