I want to get my wife on my AMEX BCE as an authorized user, Does she have to go through any credit checks as her credit is terrible and its asking for her SSN on the online form. Would her bad credit effect me?
Thanks
Matt
Guvnor,
Welcome to the board and I like your username by the way. I thought it was usually [The Guv'nor]
. Anyway, your wife doesn't have to go through any credit checks to be an AU and her bad credit won't affect you. So add her away and help the mrs out...
Thank you! I'm from England originally so i thought it was a fitting name

I figured as much... Then as "Guv" it should have been "The Guv'nor" with an air to it.. I have watched a few old english movies with cockney accents.. I think they are funny..
You are welcome. All in all, you won't be harming your wife by adding her to the card.. A win for both of you.
I just added her to the AMEX as with the high limit its gonna be my daily driver for a while.
