Looking for a card that allows payment from joint account

in Credit cards
I have a personal injury trust account which does not have a debit card. Is there any credit cards that would accept payment from this type of account?

Can you make faster payments and/or direct debits from it? If so then you will be able to pay any credit card bill with it.1

as above really - set up a payee on your bank account for the card - this will be a generic sort code and account no with your long card number as the reference.0

I have tried 3 different cards and they will not accept D.D's from an account needing 2 signatories to authorise payment.0

Ask the 2 signatories to send you a fixed amount of money each month from it.

Have you asked these credit card companies if you can send a paper mandate?
They should allow it, it just may not be possible to set up online and will require paperwork being sent out in the post I believe.I’m a Forum Ambassador and I support the Forum Team on the Budgeting & Bank Accounts, Credit Cards, Credit File & Ratings and Energy boards.

If the issue is that two signatories need to authorise all payments then this presumably rules out any automated/scheduled/remote access and limits you to manual withdrawals? Do you use a different bank account for routine day-to-day spending?0
