Hi! I just recently signed up to become a consultant. I do not have PC $, a PC Credit Card, OR a PC Debit Card. Is there any way that I can order the outlet specials listed with the samples in CC?

Thanks!!!
 
I don't think you can do them on CC without a card number. I do recommend signing up for the PC debit card, it is wonderful when submitting orders, supplies, etc.
 
You'll have to wait until you get one of those forms of payment. I highly recommend applying for the PC Debit Card ASAP, since it's very convenient for submitting show orders (HO will debit your account for orders that people paid you with cash or checks). Generally, you can retrieve your debit card info on the Automated Info System a couple of days after you apply for the card. At that point you'd be able to order the outlet samples.

I second that!
I applied for a PC Debit Card and was able to get my number over the phone the next day and ordered some stuff that day.
 
There's already been a pretty thorough discussion of why people don't want the PC Credit Card, but there's also a lot of good info about the debit card here.
 
My first few days after signing I was able to use my personal credit card for some of my purchases through PP3 for supplies & samples.
 
That's true, but you can't order samples of outlet items through P3, just online.

I am planning to sign up for the PC Debit Card tonight. I was waiting until I got to go to the bank and open an account just for PC. I did that today, so now I can apply.

Thanks for the help!!!

I don't know about the outlet but I was able to pay for anything I wanted for the first 60 days with my personal credit or debit card.

Good luck with your new business and welcome. :)
