With EL you just never know what they will do... anyway some people there do it a lot with their employee discount as well...which is wrong.

Second that, I won't risk my discount for anyone. That's why I don't swap on the boards since I have had the card either. It's too confusing to figure out the ethics of it all.

Another thing is that you cant pay with someone elses debit or credit card, like if you were buying it for another person, and them paying for it,,,,it has to be your bank card and credit cards.

Nope, not even online.

I also have "See I.D." written on the back of my pro card insead of my signature. Then again I do that with all of my cards.

I'm pretty sure you can. I've also wondered that about the employee card, I travel to Chicago a lot. I don't see why it wouldn't work.

pro card question [again]

i know they say that only the person in which the card is under can use it but i was wondering how flexible mac is about it, do they check for ID or something or is there a way you can possibly get away with not being the person? has anybody succedded?

fyi: my cousin qualifies for the card but i barely ever see her so it would be kind of hard for me. and i dont wanna get a card if i cant really use it.

They do check for ID, so I don't think it would work... I just used mine for the first time today and they checked me. I heard they're pretty strict with it. You can buy online and over the phone though.

I never had anyone ask for my ID but I wouldn't chance it just because I wouldn't want to lose my privlages for someone else, I just have people tell me what they want and I get it for them as a "present" when I'm there

MAC PRO MEMBERSHIP ????'s

Ok I applied for my MAC pro membership yesterday (i faxed in all my info) I sent in a resume, a letter of reference from my employer and a copy of my buisness card. My question is has anyone ever been turned down and if so why?? ALso how long does it usually take to find out if your approved??? Then after your approved how long until you get your card??? PLEASE let me know because I am dying here and I want this like yesterday!


P.s- is it true after you get your pro membership you can attend MAC classes? If so how do you find out where and when and if there are any in my area? Thanks SO much and sorry for all the questions

I mailed my info in and I received my card in about 3 weeks. Yeah, I know people that were turned down because they weren't really in the beauty/entertainment/whatever fields and didn't hand in adequete documentation, but it sounds to me like you did. Yes, you can attend classes, they are quite fun and are held at some MAC freestanding stores and Pro Stores. They usually start at $100, but you get that back in product. They just sent the card to members not too long ago of the list of spring classes but when you become a member it's also listed on the pro website. HTH

It sounds like you have enough documentation to me as well. As for me, I checked my bank statement and about a week after I mailed it, there was a charge for $35 from MAc and I knew I had gotten approved. It took about 1 more week before I had the card in my hands.

I faxed my stuff in, saw the charge on my card a few days later, and received my card about a week after my card was charged.

Yes, you can attend classes... once you get your membership, you can log into the macpro.com site and click on Events and search in your area. Usually you pay an amount that can be redeemed in products later on.
