FairFx £30 discounted prepaid Mastercard for £4.25

Postby Sarah » Fri Aug 31, 2018 12:23 am

This deal was posted on HUKD. New customers only.

Buy £5 groupon for £4.25 using code DOUBLE and then follow redemption instructions to obtain the FairFX prepaid MasterCard loaded with £35 for £5 (i.e. £30 discount):

Be quick - ends soon and could even sell out!

Also possible 8% cashback at TCB today.

These groupon voucher codes might give a greater saving if they work:

Tip:
Don't forget to redeem the groupon during registration with FairFx - plenty of HUKD members are making this mistake!

If still interested, there's a similar MSE deal although you need to load £500 onto the card:

I loaded the card with £50 (i.e. £20 after discount) instead of the minimum amount, so that it might generate an extra £9.59 cashback at TCB for joining FairFX. This has tracked successfully but might be rejected later because of the voucher code used.

If anyone fancies the MSE deal (see previous post) it's actually £10 more profitable at face value than the groupon offer (plus maybe £20.20 cashback from TCB if that pays out) just with the downside of needing a much larger deposit. It should be possible to get the money back quickly and easily, if desired, by withdrawing it from UK cash machines paying a fee of just 50p per transaction (so long as you choose the £ denominated FairFX card then select "business and personal" usage on the order form).

Here's another FairFx groupon - different terms and excludes the £ card this time:

We have been advised by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) that they have temporarily suspended the regulated activities of one of our card issuers – Wirecard Card Solutions Ltd, the UK subsidiary of Wirecard AG.

This means that you cannot currently use your FairFX card.


Thankfully, pretty sure that I reduced mine to zero balance long ago.

ALL FairFX cards are back up and running after the FCA lifted restrictions on Wirecard Card Services Ltd’s operations early this morning
