Canceling deceased customer's cards

When a customer is reported deceased, do the following steps to the customer’s account:
  • Change status to: BARRED.
  • Change profile to: EPL_CANCEL.
  • Add the following note: "Customer reported deceased. MM-DD-YY. Your Name."
  • Cancel any holds.
  • Mark any CKO items as LOST. 
  • Forgive any fees owing on the card. (If the fees are in excess of your threshold limit, forward the account to the appropriate staff with the correct approval authority.)
  • Check to see if customer is a guarantor on other accounts.
If customer is a guarantor on a card:
  • Follow the same steps as above except change the note to: “Guarantor reported deceased MM-DD-YYYY. Your Name.”
