So yeah, more MIL drama lol
Husband and I are putting each other on our accounts. I've been on his accounts since we've been engaged, but now we're adding him to mine. My mom works at my bank, so it's easy for us to pretty much do anything. So she goes to add him on my account, and her banks policy is to run a check on the person being added. It's similar to a credit check, but it's a bank check to see if the person has been in default with a bank before. Low and behold (I think that's the phrase), my MIL screws him over - again. She had added him to one of her bank accounts in 2009 so he could easily give her money (yeah, it's backwards). However, in this account she went in default and owed the bank $5000. And since my husband was on the account, it shows that he went into default as well. This not only goes against him with banks, but it goes against his credit as well. Since then, the debt has been paid, however this stays on your record for 5 years. If my mom had not worked at my bank, he would not be allowed to be added to my account, but thankfully she was able to override it. So I'm pretty much steaming mad, and to make matters worse, before I found out all of this, we (meaning my husband) invited them over for dinner this coming Sunday.
I need some serious thoughts and prayers to make it through that dinner without strangling her! Oh, and advice on how to keep my mouth shut throughout the dinner. I know there will be some snide remarks coming from her lol
