MAC FAQ: PPID/MAC PRO Card - Page 4

I was wondering.. my mom is a beauty consultant for the Estee Lauder counter at a duty free shop. (Think Department Stores) She's been one for almost 15 years; do you think she's eligible for the MAC Pro Card?

Does she not recieve an employee discount for working there? If not, she may be eligible. She should contact MAC to find out.

Hello everyone how are you? I hope all is well! I just got my mac pro card in the mail etc etc and I had a conversation about it with one of my friends at work, she said that there is a $500 spending limit. Is this true? I was curious because I read in the Macpro website that you would get 5 times free shipping if you spend over $150 so I wouldn't think there would be an actual spending limit of $500 dollars per year right? And also the same friend said that her card had declined the last time she went to a mac pro store..I am a liscenced make up artist and she just works at a men's fragrance counter so is there some type of difference? If anyone knows about this I would be so happy to find out, just to be clear on "spending limits" if there are any lol..there's so much I want/need to buy! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and have a great evening!!

I think it's $500 each time you use it, but I could be wrong.

Yeah that seems like it would make more sense!

Yes, she receives one, but only for Estee Lauder if she buys it from the place she works. Also, she gets Gratis; but it doesn't include MAC as part of the brands.

OMG! I just checked my online bank account and they withdrew the monies! Weeeee!

Darn this Easter weekend and the lack of postal service. I'll probably have to wait until middle of next week.

I faxed mine in saturday the 8th, the charge to my credit card was on the 12th (so about 2-3 working days to process - though of course it only showed up online the 14th). I still haven't received it, but even if they sent it the day after, the postal service was shut down for the friday and monday around Easter. It's coming to Montreal from Toronto, and that usually takes a couple of days.

Business card (or rather, photocopy of it along with photo ID), client contract and reference letter from same long-term client.

Wow! I was just about to ask that!

I start working for Estee Lauder @ Macys soon and I was also wondering how that may effect my chances of applying for a Pro Card?

I would ask MAC but it takes forever and a week for them to get back in touch with me. I do get a store discount but the Pro Card would be sooo much better. Since I want to use it at the Pro Stores!!!

Would I be able to get it since it is within the same company or would I be out of luck?

Any answers would be great!

Thanks in advance!!!

Wee! It just came in! So that's...about 9 business days (not counting the Easter holidays, since we didn't have postal service) since I faxed it.

i wonder if faxing is faster than shipping it when it comes to how quick they process it. i just sent my envelope today, i guess we'll see.

do they contact you via phone/email to let you know you're accepted or do you just have to watch your bank account/credit card?
