Read again - BEagle and BigGrecian are in complete agreement.
You need an SEP class rating to fly a single.
You need an MEP class rating to fly a multi.
A CPL allows you to exercise the privileges of the ratings you hold commercially.
It's likely that you already hold an SEP class rating from your PPL days. Once you pass a CPL, you still have an SEP (assuming it hasn't lapsed), only now you can exercise it commercially, regardless of the class of aeroplane you took the CPL in.
