Chase customers seeking to open a credit card account with someone else will soon be out of luck, even if that person is their spouse. The bank is pulling the plug on joint cards in order to “simplify” the menu of products it offers, according to a spokesperson.
The move might not sit well with married couples, who often have joint credit card accounts. Joint cardholders are equally liable for the debts on the account, and have equal authority to modify the account as they wish.
