Did you ask for a AC card or a Supp card?

I asked for the Supp card, assuming both are the same thing. What is the AC card?Did you ask for a AC card or a Supp card?

I agree, I have had call centre operators give me cards on my name and others refuse (doing it online seemed easier)I asked for an 'additional' card which is the a/c card.they gave it to me. I think it depends on who you get at the contact center.
The key with this policy which isn't clearly explained until you read the fine print is: you need to pay your handset cost on the Explorer, not just the plan. You can buy the handset in one lump sum or in repayments over a period of time, so long as it was on the Explorer.
I got caught on this. My phone has been "paid off" (so to speak) for a while so I swapped from my $90ish PM plan with Voda down to the $40pm sim only. That was enough for Chubb (the insurer) to say no. I did push a little and they gave in as a "good will gesture". I promptly dropped the iPhone again a week later. Didn't bother reclaiming.
In other news, I have never in my life broken a phone, but have smashed my iPhone 6 screen 3 times. I blame the phone!
yes I got a AC card for my personal explorer. I do have business spend on it though.
I told him I needed a AC card to differentiate my business spend.
Dam, guess I'll need to call back again laterThat's the same as I did with my personal Explorer card - I told them I wanted to separate personal and business spending when I asked for Supplementary cards for myself and my Wife. I was told it is classed as "Additional Cards" in these circumstances and that he would send through a request for ACs. A few days later I received additional cards for both of us. We have our initials on the cards we use for business spend and our full first names on the cards we use for personal spend.
Reporting back
Just asked specifically for an AC account/card for personal explorer card and was given the ok. Bit confusing at the start but we eventually got there without asking any questions about why I need one.
Has anyone been able to link their Explorer to the Ascent program recently?
Thanks petejay. During that one week did it still show your Gateway when you login online? I had to call a second time as the first operator wouldn't let me do it.
Alright. I gave up trying to argue my case for the bonus points, tried the trick suggested previously on this forum but still no go. Now just happy if I can have my Ascent back.Yeah, still showed as Gateway for the entire time until the switch-over.. Then it just came up with the message to check under Plat Edge card, so no more points posted under Gateway. I don't recall exactly, but pretty certain they just transferred all the existing Gateway points over in the same process (i.e it was all there when completed).
