My ex boyfriend and I broke up back in July of last year. I recently noticed he has been using my phone number to get a discount at the grocery store. It kinda irked me, and I want to text him and ask him to please stop using it and that it’s really easy to set up your own account. This grocery store doesn’t offer great fuel points or anything so it’s not benefitting me in any way to continue letting him. And I don’t know it just annoys me that he uses something of mine without asking. We aren’t on good terms. We haven’t talked once since we broke up. It just feels weird that he’s using something of mine and I want him to stop lol. Would I be an asshole for asking him to stop using it?
Do you get points on his purchases though?
I’d be mad if he used my coupons.
This isn’t worth your mental energy. Either let it go, or cancel your account for a couple months to let him make his own account. Restart when he’s out of the habit
YWNBTA. You broke up with him earlier, and aren’t even on good terms. Don’t let him keep using it, just like you wouldn’t let him use your car or Netflix password.
If you are getting rewards points from his use why worry, but if he’s using your points for discounts then tell him to stop. NTA

He’s trying (and succeeding) to get under your skin. WE all know that the really right answer is probably to just ignore it and he’ll finish going away eventually, but for now this must be so aggravating!
Maybe check with your store’s customer service and see whether they can switch you to a “customer number” from your phone number as the sign-in option and remove your phone number as a possible sign-in option. If not, maybe you can just remove your number from the account (do you have a physical card?) for a few months until he’s had enough rejection from the store to stop trying.
I don’t understand. When I gave my mom’s number it was so that SHE would get points. How is this benefiting anyone but you? Just go to the grocery store and cancel it.

Would be great if you could change the number on your account to another one. Then you might make him think you’ve changed your phone number and really get under his skin
Pointless vindictiveness just makes yourself miserable
It’s not like there’s any possible negative here for you so this is purely for spite.
Yeah ywbta what harm does it do to you in any way? He’s upping your gas reward points and it’s for groceries. Maybe you just want a dumb excuse to text him and be petty
Only if you want to bicker with him. Why let it bother you? You will be essentially giving him control over you. NAH
NTA. That’s stupid. When you break up, you stop sharing stuff unless it’s an explicit agreement.
NTA change your number at the store account. Like your office number or fax number
Now that’s actually some good advice! I’ve been thinking the easiest route would be to just change my number but don’t have another personal phone number to change it to. Didn’t even think about using a work number.
She can’t stop him. May as well move on
