    I need to buy something online that will cost 90€ the only way of payment is paypal and i'd rather use 3v because its fairly quick method of payment. Can I just top up my card by 90€?

    For €90 you would need to buy €100 3v. When you factor in paypal fees, the €1 registration charge to register it with paypal (you get it back but its takes a few days) it will cost about €95.

    Ive used 3v for years, and after the hassle ive had since the new crowd took over, ill never use it again

    Plus it will cost you 2.50 to top up by €100. So thats €102.50 for €90. I assume you need this soon, and quick. Otherwise you can top up your paypal from your bank account for free. It takes ages tho.

    When BOI Visa debit card releases then 3v is dead big time.

    You can put your 3v card into Paypal which should be displayed on the left hand side of the page
