I tried both suppliers; On spreadshirt I simply couldn't add anything to my cart and on zazzle I kept getting a 'processing error" alert. I called zazzle customer service and they said it must be a problem with the shop/technical issue with the page itself. I guess I'm reporting it as a technical issue.

I placed an order on both spreadshirt and zazzle just now without a problem. Not sure what your issue is exactly. It may be your credit card issuer is denying the charge. You might want to try calling them and seeing if they can provide any additional information.

Yeah, I had a feeling the customer service girl was just trying to get off the call, she just sounded really adamant though. Thanks :), but I think I know what happened then. I use disposable credit cards for online privacy/safety and I do know some places won't take them:( Anyhow, paypal just took it for a straight out donation so I'm all good :)

Are those like the Portuguese MB.Net were there is a "fake" and temporary credit card created only with the value you wanted just to be use 1 time until a new one is made ?

If so, those cards don't work a lot of places (mainly places that uses paypal to process credit cards).

What I recommend to you is to look at the website if paypal is supported and if it is you can transfer the money from you bank account into paypal and then pay. I am saying this assuming you have a paypal account and in order to avoid using directly your credit card (or if, like me, you don't have one, but only have a debit card... don't know if this is a good translation of the Portuguese term).

I don't think we're talking about the same thing. You just buy them for cash at the pharmacy, grocery store or whatever (you pay like 6.00 on top of the value of the card to get them activated by the cashier and then a monthly fee if you don't use it). They're not linked to anything unless you voluntarily register them and there's no trace (well, I expect the store #, cameras, pii you offer along with your purchase, if you sign it with your real name at a store, etc. etc.). You just use them and throw them out when you're done. I'm not a big fan of paypal, but it did come in handy today cause they did allow my disposable credit card as a guest account so that's good :)
