Ah, well that’s gonna put a damper on my plans! The virtual cards were my justification for not setting up a spare account this time around. I’ll proceed with extreme caution then, thanks for making me aware!

May I ask why you don’t use your normal card. Normally casinos are pretty safe
Segregation. I don’t want my main debit card stored with so many different places, and I’d prefer all my in/out transfers to be tied to single card or account that is completely separate from everything else.
In the event virtual cards could be linked to pots, I had planned to set up a pot dedicated to matched betting. For now, I’ll just go back to using the Barclays account I set up specifically for this hobby! 
Ahh that’s reasonable that! I just use any account for gambling as it doesn’t tend to bother me as much.
It would be amazing when they let you pay from a pot

I’m using paddy Power so fingers crossed. If not I’ll just have to wait for it to appear again and use my main card
May I ask why you didn’t use your original card in the first place?
Same reason as above. Don’t like my actual card being stored in a lot of places. Thought the virtual card would work as PP generally like to send your money to the card on file. I assumed it would be like a refund.

It mostly is, but gambling payouts have the extra rule that they must check the card is still active and the account is still open when they issue the payout.

Just to let people know, it actually worked so it must by dependent on the company.
