So they just upgraded you from a regular MC to a WMC and added the chip. Makes more sense now.

Yes, that is exactly what happened. I'm not sure why though, as I didn't even know it existed so I most certainly didn't ask for it. Haven't asked for any CLI recently either, so it was a total, and pleasant, surprise. Any tips or advice on how I can use the upgrade? Such as helpful info and whatnot that exclusive for World cards.

EDIT: Sorry for the double post. It told me to resubmit since it didn't go through the first time.
