SECU Board:: Risk-Based Lending - Loose Logic, Penalizing Members Who Have Done Nothing Wrong... Just Because They Can.

Most of us have had the unfortunate experience of "overstaying our welcome" and getting one of these.

Happens to the best of us, an unhappy experience! But how would you feel if the policeman came up to your car - just after you finished parking and feeding the meter - and put a ticket on your windshield? You'd probably ask what "the whatever" was going on, right?

And how would you react, when the officer said you were being ticketed in advance because you looked like (often called "profiling") someone who would probably "over-park". After all, you'd had a ticket before, hadn't you? "Well yes, but let me explain..."

Overcharging all "B, C, D, E"- tiered SECU borrowers with risk-based pricing uses the same, identical "pre-ticketing" illogic. There appears to be some past blemish on the member's credit history, which has lowered the score. The SECU Board no longer cares to hear the: "But let me explain..." That policy of unconcern and indifference is costing SECU members hundreds of millions of dollars in unjustified excess interest charges. 

But here is the real rub on the SECU Board's glib, hundred million dollar member-punitive overcharge. The SECU Board, aided and abetted by senior loan administration executives trying to cover their tracks (soaring delinquency and loan charge-offs), are overcharging the wrong folks - the good members!  

Who pays that extra hundred million dollars or so in interest? Why, of course, it's all the SECU "B, C, D, E" score members who do repay their loans to SECU - the good folks! - and over 98++% of those members do repay, always have! 

😎  SECU members who default on a loan - whether of A, B, C, D, or E ilk - don't pay the excess interest charges!!! How do you know that? Well, just common sense y'all. Members who default don't pay those punitive interest surcharges......

                              'Cause they don't pay at all!!!

 

Got it? Pretty simple isn't it!

 The SECU Board is willfully and unjustly "pre-ticketing" the majority of SECU members who pay as promised with risk-based lending.
