Hello everyone,
I just got married and my husband has a very good credit history. I never had a credit card and I have no credit score. We just tried to add me as a joint account holder on his credit card, and we were denied because I have no credit history. I would like to know if you have any tips about how to convince the credit card company to add me as a joint account holder. I just got my PhD from a prestigious university and now make good living as a research scientist, so I'm thinking that there should be a way to convince them that I'm not "irresponsible" and that they are not taking any risk by adding me to my husband's card.
If you have any insight or input, I would really appreciate it. Please note that I'm not looking for advice about how to build credit. I would like to know how to get added to my husband's card as a joint account holder.
Thank you so much in advance!
