A deposit account, with or without bounce protection, is placed into a charged-off status after 50 continuous days of an unpaid overdraft balance.
To accept payments on a charged-off Demand Deposit Accounts (DDA) or savings account in person, do the following:
- Determine the identity of the client by using one of the following:
- In Xperience > Customer & Account Inquiry.
- Search by client name, account number, Client Information File (CIF), or Tax Identification Number (TIN).
- On the Account tab, view the charge-off date and charged-off amount.
- If the account has an alert message from Litigation, do not take payment without contacting the Collections/Litigation department by phone. Collections/Litigation determines how to process the transaction. Note: For a list of associates and contact information, see Collection/Litigation.
- To determine the amount owed on the account, review the Current Balance.
- Collect the charged-off amount from the client. Note: The amount must be paid in good funds.
- If the client is paying by check, based on Regulation CC requirements, place a hold on the check.
- Prepare a DDA/Savings credit memo with the following information:
- Date
- Name of client
