What else can I help you with?
Are you responsible for the debt if you are a cardholder if your fathers files bankruptcy and he is the primary cardholder and has paid all bills?
An authorized user, which is all you are - he is the actual card holder - is not responsible for the bill.
What happens when a cosigner declares bankruptcy-not the primary owner?
Nothing unless they filed on your loan.
Is a primary borrower's mortgage or credit affected when the co signer on a loan declares bankruptcy?
no
Is a person who is only listed as an authorized user on a credit card but never used it liable for the debt if the primary holder files bankruptcy?
No. An authorized user is not responsible for credit card debt in any situation. Sorry, I failed to mention that the exception is if the "AU" is a spouse and the couple reside in a community property state. What if the authorized user charged on the card? Would he be held responsible for that?
Can you be responsible for the primary user credit card charges even when you were removed from being an authorized user?
If you were only an authorized user and not a joint account holder, you should never be responsible for the primary account holder's debt.
If the primary cardholder is deceased and the authorized user is no relation and not responsible for debt will this affect the authorized user's credit if it is not paid?
AN authorized user cannot be held responsible for a primary holder's debt in any case. Only a joint holder can be liable for the debt. YES OF COURSE
If you are a authorized user on a credit card and the primary holder is not paying the bill can the authorized user be held responsible?
No. Authorized Users are NOT liable for the debt, only the PRIMARY on the account is liable.
Can you explain what an authorized user is on a credit card?
An authorized user on a credit card is someone who is allowed to use the card but is not responsible for paying the bill. The primary cardholder is responsible for all charges made by the authorized user.
How do authorized users work on credit cards?
Authorized users on credit cards are individuals who are given permission by the primary cardholder to use the card. They can make purchases and build credit history, but they are not responsible for paying the bill. The primary cardholder remains responsible for all charges made by authorized users.
How does an authorized user obtain a credit card?
An authorized user can obtain a credit card by being added to someone else's credit card account. The primary cardholder can request an additional card for the authorized user, who can then use the card to make purchases. The authorized user is not responsible for paying the bill, as the primary cardholder is responsible for all charges.
If the primary card holder gives a friend a secondary card to use is the secondary user responsible for the dept or is the primary card holder solely responsible?
It depends if the secondary card holder is a "Joint Account Member" or a "Authorized User". The joint account member is responsible for the balance, the authorized user is not.
Who are authorized credit card users and what privileges do they have?
Authorized credit card users are individuals who are allowed by the primary cardholder to use the credit card account. They have the privilege to make purchases and transactions using the card, but they are not responsible for the repayment of the charges. The primary cardholder is responsible for paying off any charges made by authorized users.
