    okay, this is for anyone using them 3V cards with a paypal account,
    i was wondering if i should get a 3V card, but on the website they said the limit i can get on it was €350,
    so i was wondering, since they recommend setting up paypal, does that mean i can keep topping up my paypal account with e.g €350 and another €350 so i can have a total of €700 to spend in one go?
    ive never used paypal btw...

    in theory, yes you can.

    However i try to avoid using 3v as it cost 5 euro per topup over 100.

    I think you can also do a bank transfer into paypal aswell, might be handier
    ?!

    The only thing with adding credit cards to paypal is that they charge your card a euro to "test it".

    actually, payzone has a new prepaid mastercard (they are also behind 3v but are doing this on their own without any other companies). Its not available in many places yet, but i think theres a higher limit like 700 (not fully sure, check their site)

    Online Buying & Auctions
    or
    Consumer Issues
    or
    I would have searched for '3v' on the forums and see if that query was answered before

    Consumer Issues. This has nothing to do with economics.

    Wait a minute.. before you start acusing people of anything. It just happens that I seen the post first thing this morning on the homepage when I signed. The only reason I replied is that a mate of mine owns a retail shop that does 3v.

    Second of all - do you have nothing better for doing other than posting random nonsense hours after the discussion dies down? I mean get a life.

    So what if my account is new!! Everyone has to start somewhere!

    Paypal questions in the Paypal thread. You cannot load money from any kind of credit card into Paypal. It doesn't work at all, therefore you cannot load several 3V vouchers into your account.

    A bank transfer is possible, but you will have zero protection if anything goes wrong. i.e. you'll lose the money if the product doesn't turn up, or doesn't work, unless the seller willingly refunds. Not a good idea for large purchases, unless you completely trust the seller.

    Big Payzone thread here.

    OP looses, for asking questions in the wrong place. Mod wins, because mods always win.
