Credit Card question

Can the name on the credit card be changed to someone else?
TIA

You can change hte name if it is your new name that was legally changed. You need to send proper id to make that change, otherwise I do not think so.

I should have clarified. I meant to change it to someone else, not me.

No. You can add someone onto your card but can't just change the card over to someone else.

Probably not that same card but if it's a family member, you could probably get an umbrella card - kind of like when people get a cell phone and then a whole bunch of others for their family members all under the same plan (different phone numbers but one bill).

Call the credit card company and ask if they give more than one card per account.

Not what I need to hear

If I add this person to the card, can that person be the primary mailing address?

All credit card companies are different and offer different options. I would call the company and ask them.

I don't see why not. I haven't switched my address yet so I was getting the statements to my place but my permanent address on the card is listed as my parents house.

Doesn't mean that the primary holder is any less responsible for the payments though.
