Just a drop a credit card into the Billing account and be done with it?

This will work for many people (including me), but here is a thread where someone complains about how it doesn't work in a classroom where students aren't allowed to enter credit card numbers:

I agree with the OP in that link.

I don't have a credit card and don't plan to have one. I chose GAE because it's the only one which does not need credit card. I can compromise with the GAE heavy limitations because of that.

Because of this I might as well just choose AWS.

Doesn't go into the specifics enough, if it's a school account it's probably not relevant... But couldn't they enter the card details at home then use the account in class?
