Please bear in mind, the person whose card the balance is switched to, becomes soley liable for the debt. If you were to fall out, he couldn't ask the card company to charge you for any remaining balance.
From the lender's perspective, it's not a problem. Customer Services may ask him for the name on the card, but this is purely an additional verification check.
At the end of the day, the card company is after his business. They're not really interested in knowing who ran up the debt, as long as he, their customer, pays up on time each month!People who don't know their rights, don't actually have those rights.0
