The person who is the Primary credit card holder is responsible for ALL the debt acquired on a credit card. If you are 50% / 50% on a credit card (rare), then you will be 50% responsible for any and all debt no matter when you stop using the credit card. Acquire the credit card in question, destory both by cutting/shredding and then cancel the card. IF your partner is the PRIMARY account holder then you MAY NOT WANT to destroy the card. You may be able to request from the credit card company to remove yourself BUT if that fails to be successful, then maybe the unknown loss of both cards would be a welcome calamity.

If an authorized user of a credit card is NOT liable to the issuer of the card then why are negative credit remarks reflected on the authorized credit report?

If this is truly a mistake, and the creditor's application does not have authorized user's signature on the application, then the creditor is obligated to correct the credit. Get a letter in writing from the lender stating you are not liable and that they are going to correct all 3 credit reporting agencies. You can send a copy of this letter to all three agencies and get it corrected yourself. I will warn you to keep the original letter as even if you fix the reports now, you may find that in the future, (no matter how many months/years) you will need that letter again.

Only in certain instances. If your name on the credit card debt? For instance, is it a joint account? If so, you are liable for it. If not, you are not legally liable for it. Some sneaky collection agencies will try to tell you that you are liable when you are not. This is illegal. Learn your rights against collection agencies by reading up on the FDCPA.
