Accepting Payments on Charged-off DDA and Savings Accounts

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:

  1. Determine the identity of the client by using one of the following:
  2. In Xperience > Customer & Account Inquiry
  3. Search by client name, account number, Client Information File (CIF), or Tax Identification Number (TIN). 
  4. On the Account tab, view the charge-off date and charged-off amount.
  5. 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.
  6. To determine the amount owed on the account, review the Current Balance.
  7. Collect the charged-off amount from the client. Note: The amount must be paid in good funds. 
  8. If the client is paying by check, based on Regulation CC requirements, place a hold on the check. 
  9. Prepare a DDA/Savings credit memo with the following information:
    • Date
    • Name of client
    • Description - collect charge off balance
    • Client signature
    • Associate initials
    • Transaction code 15
    • Account number
    • Amount being paid
      • Checking Credit Memo Example

      • Savings Credit Memo Example

  10. Take payment to a teller for processing.
