sorry…jet lag
I have both cards now. Is it worth hanging on to the prepaid card? Or is it obsolete now i have a current account?
If you want it as a decoration then hang on to it.
It doesn’t serve any practical purpose now.
I use it in places I don’t want to risk using my card, as it has limited funds, mostly online.
Yes, we’re talking about a deactivated prepaid card that has been replaced by a debit card and no longer works.
Does the prepaid card deactivate when you upgrade to a full account?
Yes, the two accounts merge (if you have the Current Account preview) and the Pre-paid Card becomes obsolete and deactivated.
Yes as soon as you activate your Debit card prepaid will be disabled.
I just binned mine. No use to me now.
I believe this is the preferred method of retiring your deactivated prepay card:

[edit: this was posted on a thread merged into here, I do read previous posts, honest]
It will go in my ‘fake’ wallet, I’ve been robbed at gunpoint twice whilst travelling, so when I’m in high risk areas I always carry a wallet with a few expired cards and a little cash in it!!
