No not legally, never!
I (the one addressed in the above), agree and must apologise to the previous poster. It was foolish of me to make such an absolute statement as all are frauds. The information s/he provided is excellent...and I believe shows we all agree it is an industry fraught with pitfalls and misunderstandings....and you really need to do a lot of research before doing business with any...and as always...if it souns too good to be true....it probably is.

Mother is deceased all assets are in a trust fund can credit card debt claim assets?
I do not know the fine points of the law. However, it seems to

any other debt that your mother incurred. You can contact the
credit card company and ask. You may need to send them a copy of

If you're an autorized user on credit card can you roll it into bankruptcy?
No. That credit obligation does not belong to you, you have
simply been authorized to sign for purchases made. Think of the
example of a corporate credit card. A company would authorize you
to buy things with the card but it is not part of your personal
finances. You don't legally have to make payments on it, and if the
card defaults they don't come after you for payment. Therefore the
account is not your liability.

That means you agree to be completely responsible for paying the

payments. You may not know if the primary card holder is not paying
the monthly bill and your credit record will be affected if
the payments are late.

Who's responsible for credit card debt after the card holder dies?
The estate covers the bill. If the spouse is still alive, he/she
will probably have to cover the bill with the proceeds of the
estate.
If there aren't enough assets to cover the debt, and the credit
account was not joint with anyone else, the credit card company
will have to pay it out of their own pocket.
Credit card companies cannot force the family to pay the
debt.
