Aw, Dad, you've done a lot of great things, but you're a very old man, and old people are useless

One of my sponsors quit paying by ccbill and offered me an epass and atm card instead. I said okay.

A week later I get my card in the post and an email to say its been loaded with a few hundred $.

Straight to the ATM machine and withrew the lot. No problem, no charge, easy.

As soon as I get an email to say a payment has been made (to the card), I go and withdraw it. The ATM machine is outside the supermarket, couldnt be easier or more convenient :-)

When buying stuff online I'll use my other credit cards I know and can trust. I only consider the epass as a way of being paid relatively small amounts from sponsors. If I were to wait for a check in the post, its costs me about $10 to convert it into british pounds, so again the epass ATM card is a winner for me.
