Jamie Heinemeier Hansson had a better credit score than her husband, tech entrepreneur David. They have equal shares in their property and file joint tax returns.
Yet David was given permission to borrow 20 times the amount on his Apple Card than his wife was granted.
The situation was far from unique. Even Apple’s co-founder Steve Wozniak tweeted that the same thing happened to him and his wife despite having no separate bank accounts or separate assets.
