So I have been having an issue for the past 2 weeks inputing one of those visa prepaid debit gift cards. They always use to work. Now when I put them in they dont work at all. I called up Sony and asked what I could be doing wrong. The rep said they were thinking of not letting people use those cards anymore because of limit issues and a 1 dollar hold issue. He said they might have put that into action and now at least the Visa card may not work.

Can anyone confirm this. I mean if you can still input the all access visa debit prepaid cards would you let me know. Because wipeout hd is calling and I dont want to guy buy a different type of prepaid card but I might have to.

PS. I would buy psn cards but I live on an island with no blockbuster or seven 11 or any big name gas stores. No bestbuys nothing. Cant get them here lol.

Thanks in advance.
