Added my wife to my walmart card this evening as a authorized user with the hopes of credit piggybacking her on my good payment history,low credit utilization,and long account standing.Upon asking them to add her,the represenitive told me how i would be responsible for all charges to the account and that once she is added as a AU on the account they will be reporting it to all 3 credit beurea's on me and on her as a AU..But they never asked for her social security number.I asked the represenitive how they would report it to the credit beurea's without her SS# and she said they have a special dept that handles that and not to worry about it..So my question is,how can they report it on her credit without her SS number?
