You're nearly there. The current card brand is Globe Wallet. Last year the card was provided by Altair Financial (which was a better card tbh). As already mentioned, the card is valid for 12 months. When my Altair card expired, I was sent the new Globe Wallet card.
The fees are still the same (Ł2 for an ATM withdrawal, free to use for purchases).
The card is actually the cheapest way of getting your money out of Neteller (and also the fastest- less than 24 hours in most instances), with Neteller only charging 50p per withdrawal (the Ł2 ATM fee is charged by the card issuer, not Neteller).
The only thing with the current card is that, unlike the previous one, it is not a Chip & Pin card, which can cause problems in certain outlets who only accept C&P (which is the vast majority of B&M retailers in the UK, someone else will have to comment on C&P in the USA, Canada etc).
Oh, and I wasn't charged Ł5 for my new card as it suggests on Neteller.
