Prepaid Sony Card

jenieliser · 07-12-2009, 11:44 AM

So, I was thinking of getting a prepaid card for the sony ebook store. Will I be able to add money to it later? Or would I have to buy a new card everytime?

I am curious to know this too. It would be nice to have a card to use instead of always having to use my debit card..

I've been looking on the website and they only have the online giftcard. They really don't provide much information on that. And I haven't been able to find much on the prepaid giftcard. I'm still looking though and I'll let you know if I find anything.

I don't think they are reloadable (the regular ones). They come in standard amounts (not set), so I'm guessing no.

I have done the online gift cards though. Good presents from people

You just need the Sony software to buy them and an email address to the person you are sending them to. So if you needed to, you could send them to yourself. Important note: I've had them take up to a day and a half to process and email the gift certificates.

I found the live chat feature on the sony website yesterday, and found out that you cannot add money to them. Which is really too bad. I had a feeling this was the case.
