To be thinking secret debts!?

[UmEllaEllaElla]

My ex was very odd about money
. He never wanted a joint bank account as he had bad credit. Apparently his ex before me didn't pay the mortgage and his name was on it so he had bad credit.
We split household bills based on wages but he had a lot left over and could never account for it.
When we split I asked about debts and he denied it. I asked to see his bank statement he said no and all his statements were sent to his mums house never here.
He's got secret debts hasn't he?

If he's your ex why does it matter?

Gambling
Drinking
Debts

Or savings ....

What does it matter though unless you tied yourself with him financially?

Why would you ask to see statements if you have split up????

If he's your ex why does it matter to you and why did you ask to see his statements? Are you worried about joint debts?

it would be nice to know our marriage wasn't a lie and he's the father of my child. We split partly due to this and I asked him to show me statements as he was so adamant there was no issue but he refused.

Have you checked your credit score? I would check that none of the credit was taken out in your name.

my credit score is good

I guess the bit about not having a joint account due to bad credit could have just been a cover up to blame his ex. But I don't think you'll ever know for sure. He could have just not wanted to show you his statements as you'd split up and it's his account.
pikapikachu's suggestion of checking your credit score sounds sensible.

Sorry just saw your post after I'd posted mine. Glad your scores ok.

people are weird. We were married I would have helped him with debts too

Secret debts, maybe an addiction of some sort, maybe a second family with an ex...

Are you divorced? When you sort out the financials you can demand copies of all his banking accounts. Fine tooth comb search through them to see if there's anything hidden.

Defo no second family. Don't know when he's have the time to drink really!

We're separated at present
