I`ve seen this advert on UK tv for these Tuxedo cards, kinda like a pay-as-u-go thingy u can dump cash on and use as a master-card.
Any1 got one ?
I`m looking at it as an example of a means I can use to transfer cash to the states whilst in the meantime getting past the stoopid £21 per transfer fee the banks want to charge me.
Inherently I`d like to get one of these cards, send it to a friend, and dump cash on it I`d like them to stick in a bank for me. I here u`r alarm bells going on, but the deal is kewl, I`ve sent cash for them to deposit in the past and it`s put into my bank in the states with no problem.
But I want to make transfers of small sums on a regular basis, like £30 ... I stick £30 on the Tuxedo and in a few days she sticks it in the bank for me and I can check online that it`s there. £30 = $60 (more or less). (so even if u were to think possible scam, u wouldn`t put another £30 on u`r Tuxedo unless the $60 appears in u`r bank - iykwim)
I take it these Tuxedos have no chance of going overdrawn, and I`m almost positive it says there is no fee for taking cash out anywhere in the world.
Sounds sweet to me
