    ....You can use a 3V card with Paypal? I recently (like a dumba$$) removed my other card from my paypal account and now it won't be accepted by their system. They said the only thing I can do is put a new card on my account.

    I know you don't need an account to pay somone with paypal so I was wondering if anyone was in the know about this type of thing as I have my eye on a couple of things from RSOV.

    Thanks, chris.

    in theory, it's basically a prepaid visa card, so should be accepted everywhere visa is

    I know but you only buy a voucher with a credit card number and paypal has some way of checking the adress of a card you're using so with no address would it still work?

    Yeah you can use 3v with PayPal. Just put in your normal address, it doesn't make a difference really.

    Just use it normally like any other credit card. If you want to save the money in PayPal, then set up 2 accounts and send the money from 1 account to the other.

    What I have done is also setup a Wirecard account, load the 3V voucher into that. The advantage is that the Wirecard lasts 2 years, so you can build a bit of a balance up

    so you buy a 3v voucher, then load that onto your wirecard? why not just transfer the money direct from your bank account? itll save you the €5 for the 3v card at the least

    €5 on each voucher you buy, although you get an extra €5 when you buy a €20 voucher
