This card really exist but it is not working at the moment. I know a lot of people who can't withdrawal or spend money. I would not order before this issue is resolved. EDIT: Can't really say because I'm yet to fund mine. But I'll be selling some bitcoins today and do a transfer to the card account. in a couple days I can say if they work or not You would be the only person with a working card. The issue is definitely not solved.

@btcash There was a problem about a week ago. And it's gone. VISA cards are working - just ask @psy. Can't really say because I'm yet to fund mine. But I'll be selling some bitcoins today and do a transfer to the card account. in a couple days I can say if they work or not

I also know a lot of people for whom these cards aren't working, but maybe that seller has decided to run...

Aren't working in what sense exactly? Anyway, I'll find tomorrow for sure as my SEPA transfer should be credited by then. I'll try an ATM withdrawal in Portugal and a 2Checkout payment on my registrar and tell you all about it

You just have to add PL to the beginning of the account number to get the IBAN. The BIC/SWIFT code of the bank is: WBKPPLPP

OK, I got the SEPA transfer in the card. 24hrs since the money was transfered until it arrived on the card. Now I'll be heading to the ATM and make an withdrawal and get back to you guys EDIT: The withdrawal worked. € 150, which is the maximum daily limit for cash withdrawals. The CC payment to my registrar also worked. Funded my account with € 100 to pay for some domains that are due soon. This cards are the real deal, folks. Low limits, some fees, etc., but what matters is that they do work.

I will try, but I need to figure out the easy way of funding this account. Right now I signed up with paypal and they're sending a test transaction of few cents to it. Also a friend of mine owes me some money from London, and it would be easier for her to pay to IBAN than the US ABA system.
Now I need to test before I go to Canada next week where chip & pin cards are a norm.

DeanC, what kind of an issue was there a week ago?
I'm trying to figure out if another provider I know that's claiming there's a problem is a scammer, if these cards can be locked by the bank, and if this is just a continuation from a year or so ago, when another polish provider did indeed close the accounts despite claiming he couldn't because he lacked access to the PINs.
Where can I contact a moderator in pm?

Update - I received my card today. Everything looks fine, the PIN code was in a sealed blind envelope. I didn't use the card yet (still have to deposit some money to the polish bank) but when I performed an actual payment I'll post the results. One thing though, concerning anonymity: in order to collect the mail package, I had to identify myself. Now I managed to work around this with some 'trickery' (smooth talking), so I managed to get the letter without actually showing any ID, but not all postal services may be so sloppy Then again, I dunno if this is common policy everywhere, maybe it's just something of the particular P.O. Box postal service where I received the card.

You understand that you only had to sign for the package because it was registered mail and who sent you that mail was DeanC, don't you? lol

@DeanC I emailed you quite some time ago, but you haven't replied. I'd like a PLN card please.

I'm sorry DeanC, you seem like an honest seller, but these cards have a bad history. Either someone will do something illegal with your cards and the bank will block them all, or the bank itself is a cancer. http://www.talkgold.com/forum/showpost.php?p=4814870&postcount=322I think the above scenario is inevitable, so maybe it's good to warn you all, both DeanC and buyers.

I would care more about stupid forum admins who block entire IP ranges... The talkgold admin just successfully kept 90% of the portuguese internet users out of his forum lol But he doesn't block hidemyass.com which is a know proxy site. Very clever indeed
