Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Pennsylvania
debt of a dead parent
i was listed on my mother's credit card as a secondary user.
i did not charge anything on the card. After she died the credit card company told me that while they could not sue me for the balance it would show on my credit record as being unpaid.
is this a true fact?

It is a false representation. If it shows up you have remedies to have it removed. Gerald Hershenson
