Avoid Potential Suspension of Card Transactions

Remember: It is critical that applicants keep current primary and secondary phone numbers on file should we need to contact you to verify account activity. A cell as a primary phone number, and a home or business phone as secondary will help ensure you can be reached when our analysts call.
