I basically have an ally bank account and it's awesome but if someone gives me cash I'm a bit screwed lol so I want a top up credit card (Walgreens etc) so I can put money across via PayPal or just use the card.

Any suggestions. Thanks.
 
Aren't there in network ATMs that you can make deposits with? You could also open a free savings account at a local credit union and use bill pay to pay yourself.

I'm British and that makes no sense but I'm sure there are other ways its more of needing it swiftly you know?
 
Pre-paid credit cards are a huge waste of money. Get a real credit card or just spend the cash. It's highly unlikely that you receive enough cash to make putting it on a pre-paid credit card worth it.
 
I use a AMEX prepaid for iTunes. There are no fees to load via ACH from your checking and there are no fees to use.

After they observe your usage, they may invite you to apply for a regular AMEX card.
 
It doesn't make sense to use a pre-paid credit card. Use a credit card for credit purchases, debit card for instant transactions. Why combine it? You guys are weird. 😛
 
You could just open up another bank account (Free checking) at a local bank, Keep the minimum balance in there (maybe $5) and when someone gives you cash you can write yourself a check or use your debit card to transfer money.
