JoAnne Fauber came to the credit union in
September of 1974, after working over five
years with the Mason County Credit Bureau
as a Credit Reporter. JoAnne enjoys the fast
pace of working in the credit union's Loan
Department; but, being an avid reader,
evenings for JoAnne often call for relaxing
with a good book. JoAnne's husband, Don, an
employee of Simpson Timber Company, and
eight-year-old daughter, Kimberley, complete
the Fauber family.

Fair
In using a credit card, you will have new protections under the Fair
Credit Billing Act. This new law will help consumers resolve credit billing
disputes and eliminate certain practices that are considered unfair to
consumers. You get these important rights.
• Billing disputes -- If you write a store or credit card company about
an error in your bill (you have 60 days from the date the bill was mailed to
do this), you must get an acknowledgement of your letter within 30 days.
The dispute then must be resolved within 90 days. During this period, you
don't have to pay the amount in question or any finance charges on the
amount. The creditor cannot close your account, give any adverse reports
about you or threaten you with such retaliation. If the creditor doesn't
comply with these rules, you don't have to pay the disputed amount -- up to
$50 -- even if the bill proves to be correct.
• Defective products -- If you buy a product that turns out to be
defective, you don't have to pay for it on your credit card bill -- as long as
you first go to the store where you bought it and try "in good faith" to
resolve the problem with the merchant. This provision recognizes the fact
that credit card companies have considerably more clout than consumers in
solving disputes where the item is already paid for on a credit card and the
merchant refuses any further responsibility. Generally, this rule applies only
to purchases of $50 or more that were made within 100 (63 kilometers)
miles of your home.
• Discounts -- When you pay cash instead of charging a purchase, a new
regulation permits retailers to give you a 5% discount. Retailers are not
required to give the 5% discount, but if they do, they must post a sign telling
you about it.
• Free ride I eriod -- When you have a certain time period in which to
pay your bill before a finance charge is levied, the bill must be sent at least
14 days in advance of the deadline for payment.
