    any information you share with your bank if put on the system can be shared with other lenders.

    Thats what the 'we may share your information' with other lenders is all about.

    Why are you telling your card company about your mental health issues, what do you mean 'will my illness be protected.
    Do you mean can they stop or lessen the payments, I really wouldnt think so on those grounds.

    Why is it affecting what you pay to them.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
