in Credit cards
Hi
I was just reading the news letter sent recently and it says 2nd card holders do not the same right as the main card holder. A bit scary fact to learn as I am the 2nd card holder
but I need to start building up my credit rating can I do that being the 2nd card holder? Or should really get my own card?

Being a second card holder will do squat for your credit rating, nowt. I doesn't even link you financially."We want the finest wines available to humanity, we want them here, and we want them now!"0

ahhh thats a shame.
I think its time to get my own then.
I only use it to fill up petrol and the odd shopping here but I pay it back stright away its in my wifes name so I guess its been helping her rating
I used my debit card to pay for everything but I guess its time to get my own credit card now.0 -
Yep, this way is a dead end. Best to get your own card :-)"We want the finest wines available to humanity, we want them here, and we want them now!"0

one more quick question (am new to credit cards) can I get it in a joint name?0

I don't think you can have credit cards in joint names, in fact I'm pretty certain of it."We want the finest wines available to humanity, we want them here, and we want them now!"0
