This letter is my formal request that you change your records of my credit card account to reflect my new name. In addition to my new name, your data should indicate my new address. Below I have listed the pertinent information you can use to update my CARD NAME account records:
Pre-marriage information Married information

CITY, STATE AND ZIP CITY, STATE AND ZIP
In addition to changing the information on my account, please issue me a new credit card in my new name.
If you have any questions about these changes, you can contact me by mail at my new address or by telephone at NUMBER.
I am enclosing a copy of my marriage license. This will verify my name change and ensure accurate spelling on my updated account records and new credit card.
Thank you for your prompt attention to my request.
Sincerely,
YOUR SIGNATURE
