Ordered 1 of these today.

Can they be used for many things i.e. is it like a normal credit card? Only have a laser myself. Although it is worth it just for the money saved on Ryanair bookings.

Perfect Card
 
Are there any fees associated with using the PerfectCard?
Not for the first 12 months, by which stage most people have used their cards so you have plenty of time to spend your Gift Card without incurring a fee. From month 13 there is a monthly service fee of €3. This will also be deducted from the card’s available balance.

Because they've an agreement with Mastercard to encourage uptake of Prepaid Mastercards?

Aer Lingus charge a fiver too, and Easyjet charge up to €15.

Personally, I'm all for higher card charges.  Cheaper flights for me. Smile%20...%20Shift+R%20improves%20the%20quality%20of%20this%20image.%20Shift+A%20improves%20the%20quality%20of%20all%20images%20on%20this%20page.

Gift cards Trap from the Shopping centres, they're actually prepaid mastercards

EDIT: just saw your post BSMClap still not sure about the above though


Yeah, should be fine. Mastercard good for pretty much all currencies.

How they can list the check in online a sa seperate fee is beyond me, its not like you dont have to check in, its an unavoidable part of travelling so syurely should be included in the fare. The credit card fee is another scam, €5 per person per leg of journey, theres no justification.


The online check-in fee is avoidable.  They state they have it to encourage people to book during their sales.
http://www.ryanair.com/ie/news/ryanair-to-raise-online-check-in-fee-by-1-euro-on-all-non-promotional-fares

As for the €5 card fee, get a prepaid Mastercard.
 
Brendy, I am well aware of how to avoid these fees. My point is that they are unjustified, firstly checking in is unavoidable for flight, we have no choice, so to have it listed as a seperate part of the overall cost is wrong. Granted they offer free checkin on a limited number of flights, but all they are doing here in effect is sparing some people from having to pay this extra charge.
 
With regards to the C/C charge, how can they justify charging €5 per person per leg of journey? Again yes it is avoidable, but they shouldn't be able to get away with it in the first place.
