MAC FAQ: PPID/MAC PRO Card

[martygreene]

should be, I'll see if I can hunt my application up to get that info for you.

 

[serendipityii]

I emailed them and Lorraine replied with the number... for future reference, it's 905-944-6400.

 

[Nathalia]

Does anyone know if I can pay for the card *via faxing it in with credit card number* but with my parents credit card?

unless the name on the credit card will be the name on the PPID card i dont think so. But i may be wrong. email them and ask to be certian [email protected]

I'm a local, under 18 actress. Do you think I'd be elgible? I do professional theatre, not just school stuff, and I can get a program, a resume, a letter from a former director and probably another form of identification along with a copy of my school ID. I was kind of wondering that if I did, would it be considered ethical? I wouldn't want to get an pro card and not deserve it or not need it, that kind of thing.

Sorry if that was a stupid/uneccesary question. I'm fairly new to this forum and MAC. Thank you very much in advance =)

 

[brandi]

yup you def. can get one...

About to apply!

I am new to this site, but I did a search and found it and am glad I did! This is great! Anyway, I am a freelance makeup artist and I emailed them to ask about what would best qualify me and she said a business card and resume would be fine, but anything else I could provide would be even better. What is a composite card? Isn't that just for models/actresses? I can't wait...I hope I get one!

I freelance too, and I submitted a business card, a copy of a contract w/a client, and a letter of reference.

I'm soooo happy you got your card! Even happier that they said you can send in a buisness card and a resume! Can't wait to turn mine in!

 

[.Serenity.Eludes.]

*yay* *does the im so happy i could do 2356 backflips dance* lol. I saw M*A*C on my credit card today...35$ is missing. Ohh i cant wait til i get my card!. Good luck to all those who are applying. A Tip from me... FAX IT IN. I faxed mine in on friday, and they charged my card yesterday!

.

 

[farra712]

Yes, I am so glad I faxed! It still took about 4 or 5 days but that is better than a few weeks! However, I know this is a little ridiculous, but I was thinking about emailing them to see if they could email me my card number because I live in an area super-effected by hurricane Katrina, and believe it or not, our mail is still screwed up, and I am afraid it will take forever for me to get it, and I have a wedding coming up that I have to do 6 bridesmaids makeup for. I really can't afford to buy that much without my card! Do you think they might do it? I am afraid to ask them and them think I am just being impatient! (I guess I am a little....! Who isn't?)

 

[KristineBelle15]

To the card members who submitted a reference letter, what did your letter state? Did it just say that this person hired you on this day for whatever the project was? My client just wants to know what to write for me. Thanks!

im not sure if you can get the number before hand. but i do think you can get login info before the card gets to you. Well thats what i've heard.

I had my reference write that they hired me to do their makeup and was satisfied with the result.

 

[farra712]

Mine wrote that she had been using me for X amount of years, gave details of why she liked using me for her makeup , and said that she wanted to recommend me for their program so that I could further my training through their classes. That might help.

 

[brandiisamonkey]

for those fp you that faxed your stuff in, did any of you fax a copy of a buisness card? if so did they accept that? Im trying to get my things together to fax in to them im dying to get my card and dont want to wait weeks lol!

 

[farra712]

Yes, I faxed my business card, reference letter, and resume just to be on the safe side and I was approved

MAC pro card renewal?

Can someone please tell me what is involved in the renewal of the MAC pro card? Do you have to submit all the documents each time? And how often do you renew?
