    I have just come upon €15 which I must spend online. Long story, involving a 3v card and their ridiculous policy of only allowing you top up by €20 and nothing less. Bastards. I'd rather not be spending it, but such is life. I may aswell make the most of it.

    Anyway, the €15 must also include postage and packaging.

    Suggestions?

    Go to this website http://www.buseireann.ie/.
    Buy yourself an online bus ticket and get the hell outta Cork.
    It'll be the best €15 you ever spend.

    Instead of loaning €13 and waiting to get it back, wouldn't it be easier just to keep it?

    Only recently I realised that over the past 3/4 years I'd accumulated around €200 in unused 3v credit. Read the 3v site then which said you can transfer unused credit to your bank account, did so and now I've an extra €200 or so in me account since a few days ago, nice one :cool:

    OP when I've small amounts of credit to use up I sometimes buy a rapidshare account for a month and go on a mad downloading spree every now and again

    There is yeah, It's €5 but I'm not sure if that's per card or overall. Most of my cards had from €15-50 quid on them, I've used 3v cards for the past few years for booking hotels, flights, festival tickets etc. If you're redeeming credit you've to go to the bank and get your IBAN number for your bank account which only takes a second.

    Oh, that sounds interesting. Don't know if it's true though as I don't have a paypal account.

    Would there be an expiration date on money on paypal?

    :DYes it is. Check out 3v.ie on how to add 3v vouchers.

    It'll tell you about it taking 1.50 and then refunding it in a few days.

    It refunds the 1.50 into the PayPal Account and leaves the rest on the card.

    However if you click add Credit Card and keep linking the same one then all of the money will go into the PayPal Account and none will be on the card!:D
