The flip side of this coin is that yesterday I received a demand notice for payment of my personal accident insurance policy, which was paid on the due date by direct debit from my husband's account along with his.
As the notification from the bank has both the policy number and the client number assigned by the insurance company on it, I wrote a very stiff e-mail to the company, about it, especially because their demand notice was downright rude, and am waiting to see if or when they apologise!
So ladies, even if we have the same surname as our DHs which I do, paying things from an account in the other's name seems really to throw a spanner in the works.
