LOB Transfers

in Credit cards
My wife has just received some cheques for LOB transfers at 6.9%.
Am I right in thinking that she can use these cheques to clear some of my cards, which I can then close.
I am sure I have read this before but am unable to find it, I also believe that the debt(s) would then become her's.
Thanks in advance for any input......

She would be liable for the debts if it isn't a joint account.
I also wouldn't close the cards unless you can't resist spending on them. You may get better offers or some 0% offers that you can use to reduce the amount of interest you are paying.After falling off the gambling wagon (twice): £33,600 (24,000+ 9,600) - Original CC Debt: £7,885.91

if your wife spends CC cheques written on her CC account then clearly those debts will be hers... doesn't matter what they are used for.0
