Getting married and financial associations

Robots
Posts: 76 Forumite


I was watching Martin on This Morning and I'm pretty sure I heard him say that you don't create a financial association on each persons' credit file just by getting married, you have to take out a financial product together.
Can anyone confirm that this is right (and I haven't heard incorrectly)?
Many thanks in advance!

To be honest, it was a far bigger decision to take out a joint savings account with my wife then it was to marry her. Financial association is not something to be taken lightly.0
