Answer

MultiExcerptNameglossary_description

Quavo strongly advises clients to use the standard, default letters provided in our QFD dispute management platform. QFD’s standard letters are specifically designed and developed to uphold compliance and support customer expectations.

Customized letters are also supported in QFD; however, all customization and new product implementation requests must follow Quavo’s Product Enhancement Process.

Do Quavo’s standard letters meet compliance regulations? 

Answer

Multiexcerpt
MultiExcerptNameglossary_description
Yes.
Expand

Quavo’s standard, default letters comply with Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) requirements. Increasingly, the CFPB has taken active interest in defining the language used in consumer letters. Phrases like, “requested,” “required,” and “you have the right

to”

to,” are now specifically defined in these regulatory guidelines. As regulations evolve, Quavo immediately updates our letters with the necessary changes.

This is one of the many reasons we recommend that clients use our standard letters. Relying on Quavo to manage the regulatory language required helps clients focus on other business priorities. 
Note: We’ve seen over 200 financial institutions, from small and large credit unions to enterprise banks successfully use the same core letter content and uphold both compliance and extensive brand requirements.  Page PropertiesQuestionDo QFD’s standardized letters support all claim resolution statuses and outcomes?

Answer

Multiexcerpt
MultiExcerptNameglossary_description

Yes. Our standardized letter content supports various dispute scenarios and incorporates specific claim and account holder information, where applicable. The content in QFD’s standard letters is regulatory driven to assure compliance for all our clients. Standardization enables us to seamlessly update letters with the latest regulatory and card association rules. What’s more, clients who use our standard account holder letters experience fewer compliance issues than those with customized letters.
