Joint account on Best Buy Credit Card
I recently discovered on my Experian credit report that I’m still listed on my daughter’s Best Buy credit card from June 1,1996. I didn’t get my own card until December 31, 1999. I told her I want off the card but that card has been in effect the longest & she doesn’t want it to affect her credit if it’s closed & she has to get a new card in order get me off the account. I want off because her charges show on my report. Any suggestions? Thanks

She should contact Best Buy and ask that your name be removed from her account. She doesn’t have to close it — just eliminate your name. They will do that and it won’t affect her longevity of credit.
PS. If she has good credit and always pays on time, it could actually benefit YOUR score!
