Yes, you can always remove yourself as an AU and the CR's should discontinue reporting the card. If they don't discontinue, you can dispute the AU account as "not mine" if you have, in fact, removed yourself from the card. When it's removed, it will no longer be impacting your credit history.
It's always a good idea to pull a credit report and see if there's any baddies on the account before you consider adding yourself as an AU - especially if you're not sure.
sound very good and about right thank you so much for your reply
i appreciate that

In being added as an AU, it is important to know whether the account has items of information that will harm your score.
Does it have any old reported derogs or delinquencies? How old is the card? What is its current % util?
