Most dd/ds have credit cards. 1) Make sure the credit card company/s know that the card will be used overseas or in places it usually isn't used. Very often cards can be blocked from usage, especially with all the identity theft these days. So make sure that information is recorded in their computers and have it changed when they go out to sea for their 8 months 2) Our ds gave us access to his bank and credit card accounts to make sure we could pay his credit card bill online with monies from the bank account. Why have access you ask??? Well, while on a ship ds/dd may not have access to internet to pay their bill online. Now they don't want to mess up their credit worthiness do they! Be sure to get all the info password, login or whatever else you need. Doing #1 and #2 made that part of sea life much easier for our son! Now of course if their bills are still being sent home to you mom and dad, you don't need that info
