Be prepared to set up your actual credit card on the account and go through verification. Don't blame epass becuase you did something retarded. If you could set up an acount with a prepaid credit card or a gift card then whats the security in that? Can't blame them.

yes they need to verify who you are but that is just plain shady.
Imagine you went into a store and they said " sorry we dont take cash , but now that we have yours we aren't going to give it back until you show 2 forms of id and a letter addressed to you.
and besides that why would they need your id anyways. they cant legally verify any of it , nor do they seem to care when fraud is committed on a massive scale.
