How can we help?

53.718 - 73.725 Katie

So I was just calling to see if this was normal. My boyfriend has used the credit cards that are in my name and two of them are in both of our names, but I don't use the credit cards. And I was wondering if that is a normal thing because he's saying it's normal and I don't have to worry about

74.229 - 94.458 Jade Warshaw

the transactions because he's making he's taking care of the bill yeah i i would have an issue with that well first the mistake that i see is that you have credit cards in both of your names um so i think that that is a mistake because either of you can spend on them and if either of you decides that they're not going to pay the bill so let's say you guys were to break up

95.118 - 110.408 Jade Warshaw

and he ran up a balance on it, you're both on the hook for it. And if he doesn't pay it, it can affect you in a negative way. So that's the first issue. Then the second issue is then if you have a credit card that's only in your name and he's insisting on spending...

110.908 - 126.798 Rachel Cruze

Yeah, and it's him spending it. There's no guarantee that he's going to pay for it, right? The bill. I mean, there's a chance he doesn't. And then it's stuck under your name, and you're completely liable for that. So how has he gotten access, Katie, to your credit cards? Are you giving it to him? Yes.
