Tried adding AU by chat and the rep said the system won't let him enter it without at least one of either SSN or Bday
PUTPAC?

They won't pick up on the age when they enter the social?

Try and report back. Can't see what you can lose.

I don't know if that comes up when they enter it into the gov't system.  I thought they only get back confirmation that it's a legit #.
So, as YG says, try it.  and let us know.  ;)

Just successfully added 8 AU's on a Delta Biz card over the phone. Did not need to provide either DOB or SS. (Said I didn't have that info with me).

The rep did however say that I would need to provide that info when activating those cards. We'll see what happens...

Called regular CS?

I called CS about my SPG and the guy told me he can't even process the request without DOB.

Time for more HUCA I guess...

UPDATE: HUCA failed. (I was at least my 6th try). Same response SSN is negotiable for later, DOB is not.

This may have been written before but I can't go through so many pages- I just ordered a SPG AMEX card that needs $5,000 spent within a time frame to get miles.

1. Can an authorized user help me spend?
2. If I add an AU and then that person wants to get this same offer, will they not qualify?

1) yes
2) they will still qualify
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

Who said the DOB has to be accurate?

I mistakenly added an AU to my card twice both with the same SSN. Now the same person has 2 AU cards on my account with different card numbers. Do you think this is a possible F/R trigger?

I have the same person with multiple AU cards under the same account (e.g. John smith with 3 cards under my SPG biz, all with the same valid ssn). no issues when I signed up or activated them.
