My partner has ran up debts and now has a very poor credit rating, where as i have a pretty good rating. We have a mortgage and a joint account together, will her poor credit rating adversly effect my good credit rating and my chances of getting a reasonable loan to help her? Thanks

Yes - if you are shown as financially associated it is likely it will affect your chances of being accepted for new credit and/or the rate that you would receive if you were accepted.A smile enriches those who receive without making poorer those who giveor "It costs nowt to be nice"0

More credit to solve a debt problem is rarely the way to go. Consider contacting a specialist advisor to get an idea what solutions are open to her. Avoid the sharks by reading this: Debt Problems: What to do & where to get helpI refuse to be afraid of the big bad wolf, spiders, or debt collection agencies; one of them's not real and the other two are powerless without my fear.
(Ok, one of them is powerless, spiders can be nasty.)
As of the last count I have cleared [STRIKE]23.16%[/STRIKE] 22.49% of my debt.
