I am have a big problem trying to get a pre-paid card.
I have a load of cash in paypal, but some online services require that to use paypal, the paypal needs a credit card assigned to the account, even though cash is available and no need to use one, so I am stuck.

I live in hong Kong, and any pre-paid card I try and apply for is requiring either a US address or a UK address. if its pre-paid and only uses the cash on the card, whats the problem? why can I not get a pre-paid card?

I have o problem getting a normal card, but I wont to limit my exposure on the net, so if my account is compromised, only the cash on the card is lost, limited loss, but using my credit card with equivelant 20 Pounds of credit available on each card to to much risk for me to entertain.

Is there a Pre-Paid credit card company, Visa or Access, even American Excuse that would accept an international customer? If My brother was to buy one and send it to me as a Gift, it would work, but why can I not apply for it?

any help appreciated.
