3v prepaid credit card

[Yggdrasill]

i got a 3v prepaid credit card today and i was wondering if some websites dont accept them [paypal wont accept them anyway]i want to buy that new action replay for ds from codejunkies but i dont know if they accept 3v prepaid credit cards. And do they ship to republic of ireland

If it's prepaid, how is it a credit card? o_o Doesn't that take away the point of a credit card? Wouldn't you be better off with a debit card? What's a 3v anyway?

3v is the name of the people who make the card[3v.ie]#
i am to young to get a debit card

As far as I know it behaves as a regular credit card, only with a shortened life span depending on how much you top it up with. As for various websites accepting them - email them and ask!!

Electrons are the pimp daddies of the debit card world. Even if sites don't accept them, they can disguises themselves as regular visas.

3v is a Permanent TSB (Irish bank) initiative in conjunction with VISA

By the looks of the site just class it as a Visa when ordering stuff. If it doesn't work though I never gave such shoddy advice.
