Alternatives To Paypal's Virtual Credit Card Service?

Posted by timothy on Saturday July 31, 2010 @06:02PM from the other-than-giant-stone-discs dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Paypal has quietly killed the Paypal plugin and the related virtual-card service. The service generated on-the-fly, one-time-use credit card numbers. When I called in and inquired about the service, I was told that the service has been discontinued, but may be relaunching something similar depending on interest. They are treating inquiries as a sort of petition, taking down names and contact info. The forums seem to be a lost cause, as no Paypal reps have replied to the numerous posts regarding virtual cards being discontinued. Does anyone know of a good alternative source of one-time-use credit card numbers?"

4.95% charge to deposit? $8--9 to get it back.? Do you use computers or have guys with green eye shades?
No, they're based in the UK. Someone's got to pay for all that free education, free health care, generous social programs, etc.
