not exactly.
apped for mine over the phone and asked to bt 2k. and they only gave me 500. so obv the bt was denied. but i did get a storeless credit card.

I didn't say they were the best at BT's, but someone mentioned they did not know if they did. Personally, I would never do one with them. You would want to go for probably an 18 month 0% interest BT.
in cali we are a CP state whats hers is mine debt included
Spouse is reluctant to pull credit when making a purchase, their could be any number of reasons they might not want to do so. I seen this about 1 out of 15 times working loan and finance.. Have you even considered that they just might not want you to see something on their ? The worst case I seen of this was a car loan that was open in husbands name alone, for his GF and wife had no idea. He pulled me aside b4 we ran the app and asked me not to mention it. I of course would have no knowledge of what's secret and most of the time I would point out things to both of them that would stop or hander the loan.. One time the wife started ripping into her husband over a charged off secret CC.
I think partners should share financial obligations and credit history, I would not want to marry into 50 K of credit debt or have my partner incur that behind my back.
pfd that CO only 35 should be ez
Thanks everyone! AAoA looks to be about 6.5 years. I guess that's good. I'll have her try for a Chase today and then maybe an AMEX revolver.

What Credit Report did you get? TU or EQ here on this site?
What are the Credit Lines Currently?
I'm not sure why you would want to apply for 2 more cards and BT half of each current card basically to spread out Util? again I would say that isn't really going to help her score most likely and if you are not buying anything soon why make it harder to payoff to improve a score that isn't needed right now "if" you can get approved for 2 new cards that will do the BT.
Amex is NOT a good idea for BT AT ALL!
Chase, they are iffy sometimes, yes collection very small but you might have to recon because the computer kicks it out for the collection.
look at barclay or pre-approval on Discover.
Good points. I think Chase Freedom will be a good starting point and go slowly from there. The other thing is to fix the dentist bill.
Still have a hard time following, how you ask your wife to do something, and she says no.
I'm only engaged, but glad my relationship isn't there yet, hopefully never gets there...
Now, where is she so I can tell her to go make me sammich.
Aka....hiding something...
Spending 100 bucks that you don't have, is no where the same as getting someone to do something that's essentially free..
I've seen scenarios like this, where a husband didn't want his wife to see the vehicle that he bought for his girlfriend.
