I just got in the mail the 2 cards for the au that I added to my SPG account, when I tried to set up these 2 cards online I got a msg that I can't have these cards linked to my online account I goto create a separate user name & pass, any idea what exactly this is? Is the spg different then other ones or what?

You don't need to create a new online account if YOU want to manage all cards, you can see them all by logging in with your current user ID and password

Only if you want to give access to an AU to manage just their card that's when you will need a new log in for them

I believe this is the correct answer. Unless I am confused by your question and his answer.

It's not correct, he's saying that it's optional, but I was trying to add it to my account and I couldn't so I guess it's not optional, anybody with any info on this?

No need to add it anywhere, you will automatically see any charges made by the AU under recent activity when you sign into your account

Does adding an Au on a business card help the credit of the user?

It's not correct
It is. Check. The cards are there. You can see them by hitting "GO TO ONLINE STATEMENT" on any card then use the "Card Activity for *****" scroll down on the top left.

You do not have to add AUs to an online profile.

FTFY

Grammar is a wonderful thing when used properly... or at all.

If that was a question, and i understood it correctly, the answer is no.

See above.

He is correct, but there is a simple solution -- just get the AU account removed from your CR.

Thought he was saying your CR only gets affected if your individual AU card is used. Believe it or not, I've encountered people with such views.
