    Don't do it.

    Read the awful stories on these boards from people who have taken on their partner's debt, only for the partner to do a runner.

    Possible? Yes

    Recommended? No

    Your partner's debt will become your debt, and will remain your debt if you were to break up, etc

    Possible: Maybe, depends on the terms. Santander will not allow it, most will do.

    Recommended: No. It's your debt once it's moved.
