Hi
Please can anyone help me
I currently do not have a current joint account with my OH as he had a bad credit rating about 4 yrs ago. We pay bills separately as we dont have have any joint bills in our name.
If I open a joint account will I be linked to my OH? My credit rating is very good. Will my credit rating be affected?
I would be grateful for any information

Yes, you will be financially linked if you open a joint current account or any joint credit facility. You should consider carefully before proceeding.Before you ask, yes, I work for a bank, but no, I didn't get a bonus!0

Yep, his previous shoddy ways will bring your credit rating crashing down."We want the finest wines available to humanity, we want them here, and we want them now!"0

How bad was it? Bankrupcy? Just missed payments? Has he changed his ways? Just thoughts springing to my mind to consider before you do anything. I am all for joint accounts with a spouse, just hoping you have considered these points as wellMortgage Balance10 August 2011 £238863.97:eek:Aim: £220500 @ 10/08/120
