Has anyone had any success with them? If so which would would you recommend?

Was tempted in getting him an Amex prepaid card with 200 USD but thought I'd ask here. I've Chase and Amex Platinum.

Thanks
I thought this requirement didn't apply if you called in rather than paying online.
Doesn't it still work that way?
