Why is the youth card safer than carrying cash?
When cash is lost, it’s gone forever. However, if a Visa prepaid card or card number is ever lost or stolen – and if you report it straight away – your bank can block the account so nobody can use it. As long as you haven’t been careless with your card or shared your PIN, then it can usually be replaced and the balance transferred. Bear in mind that there might be a small administration fee for this. Banks that offer Visa prepaid cards all have their own guidelines on how they handle lost and stolen cards. Be sure to check terms and conditions when you apply.
