Default Re: Anyone use the ePassport Visa Electron?

Soleo beat me to it.

The only things I can add is that might be unclear is that the "Virtual Visa" card is literally just a 16-digit Visa number with the 3-digit security "CVV" code that some merchants require.

Regarding the fees, I did pay 5% to initially load the card, but Party does offer a 10% bonus the first time you use FPS/ePassport, so I actually got a $25 bonus out of it.

I think I may just invest the $35 in getting the Electron card to withdraw cash at ATMs, despite being disappointed that it seems it's not accepted many places like a regular Visa (from your link, thanks for the info). I'll post how well it works as an ATM card if I do get one.
