[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] The problem with this is if a person is in an abusive relationship and they need a credit card to help get out of that relationship they can not get a credit card without the abuser's permission. [/quote] OP here. Thanks for posting this. I know some women's groups have a problem with the Card Act for the reasons you mentioned. I think it's a valid reasons to find it problematic. [/quote] Yes. I also read somewhere (because wasn't this Act approved months ago) that it was agreed that it is not the responsiblity of credit card companies to protect abused persons and that private instituations should fund initiatives and receive grants for protection. [/quote] Do you disagree with that? I've read information written by those who oppose the act for this reason, but I'm not an expert on it. I'm not sure that I'd disagree with the statement that nonprofit organizations directed at helping victims of abuse are more reliable than a credit institution. [/quote]
