Anyways...I hope you guys can help me, if anyone knows the following: I tried to purchase ticket but almost at the end I figured that there is only the option to pay by credit card. I don't have one. Is there any other option I can pay for my ticket online? Does anyone knows?
Thanks.

While not an alternative to credit cards the permanent TSB disposable credit card scheme would work, www.3v.ie. Never used it myself but I've heard it works fine, you buy vouchers for the amount you want to spend then you get a credit card number for your purchase. See https://www.3v.ie/where_to_buy_3V_vouchers.html for a list of shops that sell vouchers.

The voucher will cost 5 euro, which sounds expensive but if you make less than 8 purchases a year would work out cheaper than a normal credit card which has a 40 euro a year tax.
 
and I dont think its a 'credit' card in the full sense of the word ie tsb more like a debit card so ryanair maybe only charge the debit charge on this. if this is the case ( I dont know) wouldnt it make sense for groups to use this instead of credit cards?
 
I booked four legs with Ryanair recently, ie cork-dublin-malmo, travel on 19/09/06, then return on 23/09/06, one booking, one bill, I had to pay credit card charge of e2.50 per leg ie. credit card charge of e10.00 on a bill of e90.00.
I would only have had to pay e0.80 per leg ie. e3.20 if I had a Visa Electron, help please, where can I get one?.AIB never heard of it.
 
Hi
I have property in Spain hence the Spanish bank account.
I dont think any of the Irish banks issue the Visa Electron card.
 
I use a Visa Electron debit card issued by the Italian Post Office. It is very convenient when buying Ryan Air tickets as there are "0" charges.
