How can you take legal action if you found out that your wife intercepted a credit card that was mailed to you in your name only and used it without your knowledge?

If you are not at least separated there isn't much you can do and if she has charged anything on that credit card you will be responsible for paying for it. I suggest you call the credit card company and have them take her name off the credit card and it will be in your name solely and be sure they protect you against others using your card (this can be done at a minimal fee.) A word of advice ... change your banking accounts if you have any because if you have joint accounts she can wipe you out! Marcy

If your name was added on the initial applications (with or without your knowledge) then yes, you would be responsible for the debt. If not, the debt still needs to be paid - and proceeds for that can come out of the deceased person's estate ... for married couples, that can mean ... You ... as the widower is the estate at this point.

Can an authorized user of a credit card increase credit limit without knowledge of card holder?
Short answer:It depends on the bank. Most likely though, no. Long answer:It depends on the bank and if the person asking the credit limit increase is a primary card holder. Most banks or credit card companies won't allow a secondary card holder to increase the credit limit. I just called and checked. The bank my credit card was associated with was MBNA.I am a secondary card holder (my name is on the card, but the primary responsibility to the account is under someone else's name).They told me the primary card holder needs to call in to modify the credit limit.So in my case, the answer is no. An authorized user of the card cannot increase the credit limit without the knowledge of the primary card holder.
