Avoid rip-off Ryanair charges with the Escape Prepaid card

Don’t let the no-frill carriers rip you off – buy your Ryanair tickets with the Escape Prepaid MasterCard ((www.escapeprepaid.com) and ‘escape’ the hated booking charges.

With consumer association Which? asking the Office of Fair Trading to investigate the sky-high credit and debit card charges levied by airlines and other retailers, the Escape Card is the perfect way to save some cash in the meantime..

Ryanair still allows fee-free booking for anyone purchasing their tickets using a pre-paid MasterCard. Traditional debit or credit card purchases incur a fee of £5 each way, so for a typical family of four that’s a saving of £40.

And that’s not the only benefit. With the Escape Card from EZPay – the pre-paid card supplier of the Phones4U Group – consumers are eligible for a whole range of other money-saving treats.

Available for a one-off fee of £9.99, the card can be used to access a range of cash-back deals of up to 20% when shopping online with big-name brands such as Apple, Bhs and Argos.

And as the perfect budgeting tool it only lets you spend the cash you have pre-loaded, making it perfect for anyone who wants to manage their finances effectively.
