I would like to open an additional account using my SS#, but I thought that was not allowed.

I believe I registered my SS# about a year ago when they first asked for it.

I wrote what has worked for me as a data point.

guys, i just tried my first attempt at this...how come they're not charging the fee? I'm reading the fee schedule and it "should" charge a fee.

Be sure and call to complain about the lack of a fee. I'm sure they will be happy to fix the problem for you.

Ha! This is a great comment.

AP hasn't had fees since day 1. We don't know if that'll change someday.

Yes. You just have to call the number on the back of the GC and register it under your name and address to convert it into a CC.

I'm not exactly sure what you are talking about when you say registering a GC with your name turns it into a CC?? You do not have to call, you can use it as is.

You can also search the thread for the trick when using Amex GC's to avoid the $1 hold for authorization.

PM'd the original poster with the needed information.

Just to clarify, it doesn't turn into a CC per se, but registering the card under your name and address will make the AP system take the GC as a credit card form of payment. This is the exact way I have done it and it's worked just fine for me.
