They do ask questions based on AU's information.
Even without the social connected?

It's possible they can match it up. Though if not, i guess they ask for AH.

I added my mom and dad to my SPG business card and just got the cards today. He system didn't let me add them online so I had to call. I tried creating online accounts for them, but business AU apparent need to be called in to provide SSN. Is there any way to activate and set up business AU online without calling?

No
any reason to be reluctant to add with your own SSN to your own business card multiple times?

Does that mean they connect the social?

I added myself as an AU with my SSN multiple times. Now my credit rating plummeted by over 100 due to my outstanding balance being multiplied by each AU. Is there anything I can do to bring it back up? Anyone I can call?

Call the CB's and get it removed.

So in order to have it removed it would have to be done separately with all cb's?

Call and when they ask for the social just wait. After a while they will skip the social and ask for the DOB. You then give them the DOB. Then a rep will come on. Tell the rep you are the main account holder and answer the security questions. Alternatively, sometimes a rep will agree to activate the card with just the DOB. You will then be able to set up online accounts, IME.

Just to confirm, there is absolutely no issue with adding my ssn to multiple au business cards correct?
