Hello I am thinking of getting one of these pre-paid credit cards but not sure which is cheaper and best.

The O2 money Visa card

or

The Swirl Master card
http://www.swirlcard.com/

I'm wanting a card as I am going to be travelling a lot next year so I need something that would work in europe easy and care free. i will be using it regularly on flight, accommodation and other things on travel like food and admission. I want something that doesn't have too many charges and something I could top up while I'm in these other countries.

help is grateful

If there is any other cards out there that im not aware of i'd like to here info.

You're better off getting a Visa Debit card than a prepaid card.

You may have less rights for fraudulent use of prepaid cards and charges can be much higher.

If you're currently working and able to get a credit card, I'd suggest doing so.
