Hello,
My father is quite elderly now and is keen for me to be added to his bank account. The plan is this would allow me to write cheques for food, carers, etc. What would happen though if it went into the red? What with VHI, property tax, possible nursing home care, etc this is a distinct possibility in time. Would I be liable? Obviously I'd prefer not to be. Are there different types of joint accounts (both parties being the same or one party (me) only having signing authority and no liability)?
