However, I am concerned that it will show on my credit report. While I don't think she will make my report look bad, I just don't want another card on my acct while I am in the midst of doing so many app-o-ramas. So my question is, does Chase cards show AU on credit reports even though she didn't supply any info about me other than my name? (She had the cards sent to her house which is another state but I know that reports can find family members.)
You just type in the authorized user's name and Chase ships a card out. It's all on her account, same account number and all. It's all on her. I've never had to enter other info on the person. (And I always get the person's permission.) Has anyone had experience otherwise?
