Quirky Credit Card Deals
"Clay Aiken fans may be happy to hear that their American Idol is now featured on MyPlash, a MasterCard debit card issued by South Dakota-based First Premier Bank. This is a prepaid card that targets teenagers. The pitch: By giving your child a prepaid card, they can learn to stick to a budget while getting the benefits of a MasterCard-branded card. The catch: It's laden with fees. It costs $28.94 to open, carries an additional $0.99 monthly maintenance fee, $1 to $6.75 in fees each time you load the card, fees for ATM withdrawal or balance information, and even a $1.50 per minute charge for speaking to customer service."
