- Smart Prioritizing – Work high-balance accounts first each day while keeping smaller accounts moving to bring overall delinquency down.
- Member Work-Outs – Partner with members, the Collections team, and loan officers on work-outs that serve both the member and the Credit Union, and negotiate on the Credit Union’s behalf.
- Records & Corrections – Keep clear, accurate notes in the collections system, keep every collection file up to date, and calculate and correct loan payments when errors occur.
- Compliance – Follow the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, credit union policy, and procedure in every collection practice.
- Skip Tracing & Recommendations – Locate hard-to-reach members through skip tracing and recommend accounts for repossession or legal action.
- Claims & Charge-Offs – File CUNA claims on members’ behalf, work with Accounting on claim questions, and work with Card Services on required monthly credit card charge-offs.
- Counseling & Teamwork – Offer financial counseling to members who need it, work daily with the Collections Director on problem accounts, and help educate staff to prevent negative situations.
