Can my parents see what i buy with a credit card?
I have a Visa credit card in my name, but it his hooked up to my moms bank account. can she see where i'm using the credit card? can she see what i'm buying with it? for example, if i spent $20 on a book from amazon, would she just know that i spent $20, or would she know that i spent $20 on amazon, or would she know that i spent $20 on a book from amazon? same question for in store purchases, would she be able to see what store i bought something at? can she find out what i bought from her bank?
Will my dad know i used his credit card online???
Not a good idea. Theres something more important that, its trust. Betrayal of trust is the worst thing anyone could do to someone. He may or may not find out, 50/50 chance. If his email address is on amazon's account then it might send a confirmation email. The credit card might be hooked to his checking account with his bank, like mine is. You might cause checks he's wrote to bounce. The bank charges about $35.00 for each check you bounce. He might look online at his bank every day or every so often like I do. I know any purchase that looks out of place and I would call amazon immediately to tell them to refund my money for something I didn't buy. In which case Amazon will tell them the time, day and item that was purchased. Its gonna look suspcious when he see's you with a new binder that he didn't buy. If he just has a regular credit card then they send a statement out every month and it shows what your balance is, you limit and a list of every single company that has been charged to the card. Two listing of Amazon.com is going to stick out like a sore thumb. But don't do it because you're likely to get busted, do it because its the right thing.
If I ask my parents to use their credit card online, is there a way to stop them seeing what I actually buy?
I'm curious about what your want to buy in secrecy, but I respect your privacy.I'm not telling you to be dishonest or honest with your parents. That's your decision.For CC transactions you can't see what you bought on the credit card statement just what store you bought it from (which can be generic for privacy reasons like adult stores). Online purchases are linked to an email for e-receipts and order/shipping confirmation. This does not mean they can't find out what you bought. It's just tedious. Your parents and the company's customer service rep will dislike you that much more if they had to be put through that.I would also get ready to answer the “why. What are you buying?” Type of questions when you ask. If you plan on deceit have a thought out plan, back up plans and an exit strategy (where you get found out)Don't just take one of your parents credit cards and buy it. That's theft and best case they don't realize. Worst case they find out and find what you bought and you're going to be whooped to an alternate dimension.Like the other dude said. Prepaid or directly from your account. If neither works out and you really really want the Item. Maybe you can payoff a friend who could.If what you want is illegal for your age, I highly advise you against any dishonest actions.
Anyone know if i use my parents credit card, they will know? its only about 5 bucks..?
Yes they will know because when they receive their credit card bill, they will see a list of items that were purchased using that credit card. I recommend you use your other relative's credit card and try to persuave them to let you use it since you said your parents will never let you get that item that you really want. Or you can ask your older siblings/friends to let you use their credit card, I believe if you pay them back in cash, they will be help you.
Can my dad see what I purchased on his card?
I've bought a couple things on my dads debit card online. 4 days ago I bought a product with a detailed description on why I needed it. I know I'm being vague. But I bought a item that could lead to my dad and entire family finding out about my secret life. I wrote about me and another person. But back to the purchase. I remember the site saying this would show up as the title on your card purchase history thing. But today he found out I was using his card. I told him after he asked. He said something about the item I purchased. I told him I only bought my windows operating system. But since he thought that I bought that, could he get access to what I wrote? I have the receipt of the date I bought it in my email. It shows what I wrote but it doesn't say what the name of the title of the item if it would be listed in his purchase history which it was. But I also bought a porn subscription. Ok so I'm gonna stop being vague. I'm bi and I bought a gay porn subscription and I wrote about a guy I like who my brother know who was a guy I hated at first. I'm in highschool. And my social life is important. All teens get this. My parents don't know I'm bi and wouldn't think i like girls too. Plus I'm in a Christian home and have a family of people who believe gays are satans plan to destroy the world and get back at god. But would the gay porn site show up anything gay on the purchase history and will my dad see about me liking another guy? And to let you know why my dad didn't know I use his card, it's because he doesn't act like a father or man at all. He doesn't pay bills or rent. He makes 5,000 a month from his job and he invests his money into a accessories booth that's only for attention. For me and my brothers birthday, he didn't buy anything for us. I didn't want to go skating so my dad and mom didn't go and ruined his birthday because I didn't want to go.My parents are suffocating. I deserve some space from them because it's good for growth personal growth.
If I bought my PS4, can my parents take it away?
Below 16:My daughter recently asked me a question like this. She wanted to know if she bought her own tablet would I install the software that disables it at 10pm and informs me of what she installs.I told her that I had duty of care for her, this includesFoodShelterPrivacySomewhere to sleepSupport to help her growLoveThings like access to the WiFi, power sockets in the bedroom and the large bedroom rather than the tiny office are not part of that.If my daughter does not follow the rules then she does not keep access to everything else.With the tablet it would first be the case that just her tablet would not be allowed on the WiFi. If she used it after 10pm then she would lose access to the WiFi on her other devices. Then we'd move from there.16–18If you Are worried about your parents taking things away between 16 and 18 this should be a red flag. Either you are untrustworthy and you need to sort your shit out or your parents are overly controlling and you need to save up to make leaving at 18 simple.18+Move out.I do find the comments on this interesting. I would not give an under 13-year-old unrestricted access to the internet. I’d also not give one access to an entertainment device that worked all night long. I was young once (a long time ago) and I know the temptation to use it all night and not be awake enough for school would be too strong. Making sure kids are awake enough for school so that they are prepared for life is a key part of being a good parent.That means tablets (and the like) needs good controls and switching them off at the router is not good enough.Now I’m also a big believer in giving my kids choices to go their own way, but they have to accept the consequences for it. Access to my WiFi requires acceptance of my rules, like software installed on her tablet to turn the device off at 10 p.m. and web filtering & monitoring. If she does not like it, I’ve shown her how to set up a WiFi hotspot on her phone. But if she does not turn her tablet off at 10 p.m. then I’ll turn off the electric to her room to force the matter.As my children grow and show that they are mature, I’ll lower the rules until they are 16 when, assuming I’ve done a good job as a parent, they will be mature enough for me to take all the safety nets away and let them run wild.My hope is that at 16 the ‘taking the safety nets away’ and un-installing the software would be largely symbolic as all the restrictions will have been turned off anyway.
My father racked up credit card debt in my name. What should I do?
OK, you have gotten some good answers, but here is my take on it…1. Pay the debt yourself…2. Better yet, GET A NEW CARD AND KEEP IT SECRET…and pay the debt on the current card.3. SUE and get your Dad to pay back what he charged (I honestly don’t understand how he could have used YOUR credit card without your permission unless it was online AND he had physical possession of said card).4. REPORT the identity theft and have your father arrested…I don’t like this option because I am a family man and this will only lead to splitting the family apart forever.My recommendation? No. 2…get a new card and pay off your old debt on your own but THREATEN to take it to court if your Dad doesn’t pay his charges. You have the statements…if you don’t GET THEM…and make a clean and detailed list of things bought by your father and threaten to present that to court to get him to pay you back. At the very least, they will garnish his wages and that will give you money to pay off the debt that has incurred.
If I make a purchase off of eBay, can my parents see what I bought?
If you are concerned that your parents will see your purchase then maybe you should wait until you are 18 or older before making that purchase. Your parents are responsible for your behavior so try showing them respect by leaving things alone that they wouldn't approve of or at least give them an opportunity to weigh in on what you want to buy.
