Notify Us in Case of Errors or Questions About Your Statement
If you think your statement is wrong, or if you need more information about a transaction on your statement, write us at 1505 Lakes Parkway, Suite 100, Attention: Operations, Lawrenceville, GA 30043. Write to us as soon as possible. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent you the first statement on which the error or problem appeared. You can telephone us, but doing so will not preserve your rights.
In your letter, give us the following information:
- Your name and account number.
- The dollar amount of the suspected error.
- Describe the error and explain, if you can, why you believe there is an error. If you need more information, describe the item you are not sure about.
Your Rights and Our Responsibilities After We Receive Your Written Notice
We must acknowledge your letter within 30 days, unless we have corrected the error by then. Within 90 days, we must either correct the error or explain why we believe the statement was correct. After we receive your letter, we cannot try to collect any amount you question, or report you as delinquent. We can continue to send statements to you for the amount you question, including finance charges, and we can apply any unpaid amount against your credit limit. You do not have to pay any questioned amount while we are investigating, but you are still obligated to pay the parts of your statement that are not in question.
If we find that we made a mistake on your statement, you will not have to pay any finance charges related to any questioned amount. If we didn’t make a mistake, you may have to pay finance charges, and you will have to make up any missed payments on the questioned amount. In either case, we will send you a statement of the amount you owe and the date that it is due. If you fail to pay the amount we think you owe, we may report you as delinquent. However, if our explanation does not satisfy you and you write to us within ten days telling us that you still refuse to pay, we must tell anyone that we report you to that you have a question about your statement. And, we must tell you the name of anyone we reported you to. We must tell anyone that we report you to that the matter has been settled between us when it finally is. If we don’t follow these rules, we can’t collect the first $50 of the questioned amount, even if your statement was correct.

Write us at 1505 Lakes Parkway, Suite 100, Attention: Operations, Lawrenceville, GA 30043, or call us at 678.889.4328 as soon as you can, if you think your statement or receipt is wrong or if you need more information about a transfer on the statement or receipt. We must hear from you no later than 60 days after we sent you the FIRST statement on which the error or problem appeared.

- Tell us the dollar amount of the suspected error.
If you tell us verbally, we may require that you send us your complaint or question in writing within 10 business days. We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly [five (5) business days for Visa Check Card point-of-sale transactions and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account]. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days (90 days if the transfer involved a new account, a point-of-sale transaction, or a foreign-initiated transfer) to investigate your complaint or question. If we decide to do this, we will credit your account within 10 business days of receiving the error notice, and will inform you, within two (2) business days, after providing provisional credit, of the amount and date, so that you will have the use of the money during the time it takes us to complete our investigation [five (5) business days for Visa Check Card point-of-sale transactions and 20 business days if the transfer involved a new account]. If we ask you to put your complaint or question in writing and we do not receive it within 10 business days, we may not credit your account.
Your account is considered a new account for the first 30 days after the first deposit is made, unless each of you already has an established account with us before this account is opened. For errors involving new accounts, point-of-sale, or foreign-initiated transactions, we may take up to 90 days to investigate your complaint or question.
We will tell you the results within three business days after completing our investigation. After completing the investigation, we will correct the error, if any, within one (1) business day after determining that an error occurred. A report of our results will be delivered or mailed to you within three (3) business days after the conclusion of the investigation including, if applicable, notice that a provisional credit has been made final. If we decide that there was no error, we will send you a written explanation. You may ask for copies of the documents that we used in our investigation.
