I've used them and had a lot of trouble getting their cards to be accepted by online merchants

Because of US financial laws the virtual card numbers are prefixed as prepaid cards. So in certain situations you're going to have friction where the merchant you're dealing with isn't able to, or can't use prepaid cards.
