In most cases, no. Per credit card company rules, the person who signed the back of the card is the only person allowed to use it, and if the signature on the back of the card doesn't match the signature on the charge draft, then an ID check is triggered and the retailer has to verify that the person presenting the card is the person named on the card. It has to be that person, not their husband/wife/etc. If the husband/wife is an authorized user on the wife/husband's account, the credit card issuer would issue an additional card for that authorized user.

No. Major reputable credit card companies won't even activate your card until you have the device in your hand.Reputable credit card companies will NOT activate your card prior to sending the card out regardless of your permission. Activation by trustworthy credit card companies ONLY is derived after the card is mailed AND you have provided both identity and physical proof that the card should be activated.AnswerA credit card company is not allowed to activate a credit card unless they have your permission,or there are some type of term or condition that allows them to do that .Try calling the company and ask why it was activated w/o your permission, and definetely make sure that they never do it again,and make sure no other credit card company can ever do that.


Can a spouse put a credit card in both your names without your permission?

In most cases a card holding spouse can add the other as an "authorized user" without permission, however those types of cards are not liable for repayment of the balance, even on transactions preformed on their card. It is not legal for one spouse to add the other on any credit applications has a "co-signer" without that persons permission. However, the liability would not be in the hands of the credit card company, since if you are listed as a "co-signed" and claim you did not agree, sign-up or give you spouse permission, you risk your spouse being turned over to the States Attorneys office for consideration of Credit Card and Identify Fraud.
