Prepaid gift card card locked.

by yeah_It_dat_guy

I know others here we're using prepaid gift cards before, I picked up visa one a few months back out a $100 on it. Got home tried to use and couldn't use it without registering it. So i registered it to a fake name. My extra step at trying to be under the radar......

Today I go to buy IPTV, at first had the wrong card info there, fixed it out the correct card but forgot to change the security code... Multiple attempts at trying until I realized it was wrong. I just called visa and they told me in order to unlock it I have to fax in a copy of my license and the card. Without it they will not release the funds and I can't transfer or re-register it or anything.

Anyone else ever been in this spot? There was $70 left on the card, I'm assuming I'm SOT.

Yup, forget that money... Don't buy re-loadable cards. Always buy the onevanilla gift cards that don't require any registration or anything. It's been working great for years now.

Why can't you register and and not use it for IPTV. Just buy groceries with it or beer

Not necessarrily, you only really have to register it to use it online. In-store it's activated ready to go. No reg required.
