Help needed please......
I have a joint account with my partner with Barclays Bank. It was originally my partners account. I had my name added to the current acount over three years ago. Now as the relationship has dissolved i wish to have my name removed.
The overdraft is in his name and always has been. I am having my finances redirected to come out of my own account now.
Any help or ideas welcome, i need to resolve this a quickly as i can.
Thanks

Sorry, but the overdraft is in both your names if it's on a joint account. You are jointly liable for the overdraft.
What you can do, however, is visit a branch and ask to be removed from the account. You do not need his permission or presence to do this.What would William Shatner do?0 -
Thank you, i'll give it ago and see what they say. The overdraft will be clear tomorrow as he gets paid.
Thanks again0
